To dispel the rumors that are floating around in the industry, it has been confirmed that something is going on off of I 70 both in Illinois and in Indiana.
And Indiana there’s a casino already built when you go to Google maps or Bing maps it’s protected, but when you utilize MapQuest or any other mapping type of app, you can see everything yourself….
As the old song goes, “one thing or another. I’m gonna find out. I’m gonna get you get you get you get you one way or another. I’m gonna find out. I’m gonna get you get you get you get you.”

Thanks for saying THANK YOU Brando! E
“I had a great ride from Logan Square to City Hall on the Blue Line talking to commuters about our work making the CTA safer, cleaner, and more reliable—with violent crime down 58% systemwide compared to last year and down 76% on the Red Line. Thank you to the CTA workers who keep our trains and buses clean and running smoothly and our officers and city employees working to keep riders safe across the city."
