      DEI Illinois Mayor Gone Wild

      Chicago Heights is still the same name. South Chicago Heights was a different town that changed its name

      DEI Illinois Mayor Gone Wild

      It has already happened nearby. What was once South Chicago Heights was on its way down the toilet. They renamed themselves Ford Heights after a Ford Stamping plant, that was not enough to save them and they pretty much disolved. Cook County Sheriff is now the only LE, the library and I...

      Pick up truck bed slide

      I had one briefly several years ago. Neighbor gave it too me instead of throwing it out. It needed minor repairs, IIRC a new spring and minor linkage straightened out. I don't remember the weight rating but it was a commercial unit on the higher end of weight ratings. It was well built but...

      Sig P365 surprise today....

      I bought a used p238 and it had several issues. Was never asked if I bought it new or used. It was several years ago and I don't remember if I paid for any of the shipping but the repairs were free. Entire process was smooth and trouble free.

      Free Mulch in NWI, Nipsco or ?

      Wow I didn't want to hear that. Much of what I want to use it for is around evergreens. I guess I need to to some searching but can you add any more info?

      Free Mulch in NWI, Nipsco or ?

      I am needing a lot of mulch and does not have to be fancy and pretty. I need a couple of truck loads. Years ago Nipsco dropped off a truckload I am wondering if anyone has contacted them recently about this. Any other sources that would deliver in Lowell /CP/Cedar Lake area?

      Walking?

      For me the answer has always been a mountain bike. I keep one stashed at work. The ride home 60 miles would easily be doable in a day fully laden with gear as I ride often. Problem is getting from downtown Chicago area to where I can feel safe. I have a lot of possible routes none of them...

      Chicago Police Shooting

      It sure looked to me like the first shot had glass flying from the windshield and away from the car

      Chicago Police Shooting

      I don't understand why anyone here would believe anything they saw on CNN or even watch it

      Chicago Police Shooting

      This blog is usually very accurate, says the guy shot 11 rounds http://secondcitycop.blogspot.com/2024/04/conehead-is-absolute-jagoff.html

      The end of affordable table saws? Probably, if Congress/CPSC gets their way.

      Good thing I don't get my knowledge about these things from watching vids but by using them and changing the module when someone else has tripped them. Probably lots of vids and pics of guys cutting themselves on table saws but I have never done that myself either in 50 plus years of using...

      The end of affordable table saws? Probably, if Congress/CPSC gets their way.

      Can you elaborate on that because I am the guy that has to change out the eighty dollar module when someone trips the saw usually from running a laminate with metal through it. Takes less than 5 minutes. FWIW they have a bypass switch that allows you to cut things that might otherwise...

      1940s era air compressor

      My .001 fwiw. Those old tanks are 2 or 3x as thick as newer ones. Most people shy away from a tank that old, it may be rusted to paper thin on the bottom. Buying new pumps from HF when one fails is very popular for budget minded people, the only value I see in that pump is if you have it and...

      LE types, Approaching a house at night?

      Maybe my post was too vague, I was not against them knocking on my door in a civilized manor, I was offended by the way the officer behaved. I started the thread to find out if other LE felt that his behavior was appropriate. Maybe my anger was misplaced and that is just how cops are taught to...

      LE types, Approaching a house at night?

      They already had parts of the missing vehicle that would have identified the make, model and color. They also knew what type of vehicle it was from witnesses. My motion zones avoid the road so they would not have been activated. I heard them decline accident reenactment over the cops radio
