How has everyone been surviving the recent storms?

I got to spend three hours on a Metra train on Wednesday evening - the 6:10 departure from Chicago arrived in Oak Park at about 9:15. They halted all trains until around 7:30 and then the west line w…

Bike Theft...

My son just had his bike stolen at the Oak Park El station a couple of days ago - he used a chain lock rather than a U lock and the bike was gone when he got back from work in the evening. I'll have…

amy bernstein replied to stacie's discussion 'after school program?'
I agree - get on the waiting list - a lot can change between now and September. However, I remember how nerve-wracking it was to be arranging childcare so you do need to look for alternatives. I used Hepzibah for both my kids - they are now 26 and…

I like the idea of no auction - that just dragged things out. And it was a bit crowded - I don't know where you would put a place for spectators, unless it was moved to another venue. But, I don't think the Tweeps should be consultants, I think we s…

amy bernstein replied to Christie Gee's discussion 'Looking for a 3-4 bedroom house in Oak Park'
Christie, I think it's fair to say that the various schools do have different personalities and because of site based management, programs may be different as well. The one caveat is that because of this, schools can change over time, so the persona…

Given the abysmal results of everyone in the final round (including even us) , I think the library staff overestimated people's knowledge just a tad! Should we wear the laurel leaf crowns next year? ?
