If anyone is still curious if this is still occurring on the Green line the answer is yes. I had my iPhone stolen today at Cicero Green Line station.
It was fast. I was playing on it and it was taken out of my hand and the kid ran off and was almos…
We have been with Genesis Growers for about three years. They have a delivery in North Oak Park in the Spring and Fall as well as the Farmer's Market in the Summer. A real nice CSA. You can check out their Web site for more info.
Hi,
Thanks for letting me know. I think its great all the options there are in OP. Very helpful and nice people as well. Much different from where I used to live.

There doesn't seem to be anything that covers theft for iPhone. It might be covered under your home insurance. You can chec…
We go to Tonys in North Riverside once a week. The bill is around $60 for two people. They have a great butcher and fish even more choices than Whole Foods in my opinion. Sometimes I have gone to Costco in Oak Brook, or Sams Club in Cicero. In eithe…
