In The News...

I miss that about whiskey. They say it keeps you awake, but it let me sleep like a baby.
 
Alcohol aways kept me awake, not because I drank but because it was more entertaining to watch everybody else get all slopped up.
 
Me!

The controversial Obama Presidential Center in Chicago will benefit from almost $200 million in taxpayer funding for work on infrastructure projects near the center on Chicago’s South Side.

The Chicago Sun Times first reported Friday that Illinois lawmakers had approved $174 million for roadwork in and around Jackson Park related to the development of the center.

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, a former Obama White House chief of staff, described the infrastructure improvements as “money well spent.”

“Bringing the Obama Presidential Center to Chicago took leadership and vision, and we are gratified that our partners in Springfield also saw the potential for what this means for all of Illinois,” Emanuel said in a statement Friday.

His office said that the funding would go toward meeting "the transportation infrastructure needs related to the Obama Center, from road construction to traffic mitigation to pedestrian safety to parkland enhancement."

“The state’s $174 million investment in infrastructure improvements near the Obama Center on the South Side of Chicago is money well spent,” he said.

Work has begun...

Lol nice one. I don't see how they could not change roads by a large library and such, especially building it in the south side. Tons of infrastructure in an economically depressed area, will clean up the area nicely. The only issue is that it's gonna take up some park land, and that is an issue... but also a crime area...
