I'd think it was the other way around :-)

Very true Pkd...MSD is the largest political hiring pig of anyone...
They are so blatant they almost make the cook county sherriffs dept. look legit
in their hiring practices...political pig number 2...

Bread, butter and a whole lot more my dear...

You know you live in Berwyn if?...........

You have waited almost a decade for progress and have not seen one single sign of such and come to the sad realization that beating your head against concrete will never move the mountain closer to Mouhammed.

Ryder, Hertz, and U-Haul are now on speed dial.

Paul,

When you moved in 10 years ago, was Berwyn in a better place than it is now or vice versa?  Are you more afraid now of its deterioration or can you honestly say you see the light at the end of the tunnel?  Are you going to start dialing the minute BRDO gets City Hall back or are you not even going to wait that long?

My question would be, where are you going to run to?? What city/town or area is not run unlike Berwyn?  Please tell me, so I also can call a moving van.  It seems to me that you know if you live in Berwyn if you give up so easy and want to move in a year!  Dirty Politics are every where and have always been. Nothing new here or else where. Don't take the easy way out, and move because down the road you'll be moving again. I'll repeat myself once again, stay and fight for what is truly yours, this city and your schools!!

I have to respond to this.  It happened one morning while I was still in bed and someone was honking and honking and honking.  I finally got out of bed, walked to to the car, knocked on the window and asked if they wanted me to go ring the doorbell for them!  Needless to say, they never did it again.

You Know You Live In Berwyn If...

...you experience a euphoric wave of happiness while heading west on the Eisenhower, because you get to exit at Austin while all the other poor worms have another 40-60 minutes of traffic ahead of them.  :D

...the windows of your bungalow are vibrating due to the volume of the crap music that's playing on the piece of shit stereo in the car that's still at least 3 blocks away.  >:(

...your list of things to do to improve your bungalow is not only several pages long, but is broken down into $500, $1500 and $2500 or greater sections.  ;)

...the only conversation you're capable of carrying on with your friends, family and coworkers is about your latest bungalow renovation project.  ::)

...yours is the only car on your block displaying a city sticker.  :-\
