What puzzles me is that how did you ever for a second think that Matt O'Shea was smart enough to organize a cast of characters that were capable of winning. Matt O'Shea is not a smart guy, you ever hear him talk? He sounds like Rocky Balboa. You see a bad guy on the street CALL 911......CALL 911 ....CALL 911 And to think the sheep around here treat him like he is a celebrity. No wonder Matt thinks he is something special. He is nothing more than a neighborhood manager and an off duty bartender Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8499014970840083879.post-40908331002746130622013-04-20T15:19:40.326-05:002013-04-20T15:19:40.326-05:00Clean up your basement yourself.

If there is an inherent problem with the sewers on your block then of course the city will need to do something. If this is an exception then it is just an act of nature. Any basement that is by definition below the ground level can possibly flood. I am sorry that you are dealing with that issue. I know my relatives in the Western Suburbs are also dealing with this issue. It is not fun, I know.

I took your advice and found a few Google headings:<br /><br />"Sheriff News: Whatever happened to Pickles Joyce?"<br /><br />"Joyce Pickles/Facebook". Here it appears that she is a 60 plus year old blonde lady<br /><br />"Refrigerator Pickles Joyce" where we learn about the recipe for Refrigerator Pickles Joyce. Gotta bookmark this one.<br /><br />"Auntie Joyces mustard Pickles Recipe" - pretty self explanatory.<br /><br />Not much in the way of a biography available. He must be some sort of Bruce Wayne type character who lives up on the hillside of Longwood Drive in one of those Manor homes...he probably has a retrofitted Paddy Wagon painted black with a lot of gadgets. He roams the streets of Beverly at night and helps rescue drunk Ward workers from DUIs who are stumbling out of Cork & Kerry. Now I understand why you want to keep his identity secret. He is truly a mystery.

Most Ward members have no idea who <br />"Johnny O" is - and do not care. We do care that our taxes and fees keep going up - almost a new or higher fee or tax every month. The Democrats in the 19th Ward USED to care about their constituents but now behave more like a syndicate. As Murph says I hope you don't lose your focus. Unfortunately the Democrats did so years ago, blindly following a Party that has swung far to the left. And in so doing also helping to create a black Machine in Chicagoland that is now pushing them - and us - to the sides.

It is likely, given the despicable history of cronyism and doorknockers who are doing political work on OUR time - that these guys are using valuable time on matters that will not help OUR community.
