That path seems so easy but you and I both know it is not. You live in the same state where my Mom and sister live and even though my sister has basically bent over, my mother, an old west side Chicago girl is hotter than a firecracker.

She can't believe what she sees and actually gets a little nervous from time to time. I keep telling her just to say the word and I will drive the 10 hours to get there and she keeps telling me not to worry.

I'm not trying to crap on all the good country people. I know a bunch and they are my friends but we don't talk about our political beliefs, only about getting shit done. I need something from you and you need something from me or vise versa and sometimes it involves money.

We are all good people deep down, some folks just need to dig and find that part of themselves that went missing.

Just like a GOP operative I will never give in to them burning books and screwing trained school teachers out of their careers. I won't stand for half assed shoddy labor when there are trained professionals who can do it in half the time for half the cost because we don't launder money.

I traveled over that bridge a couple times when I was working in Cincinnati. It wasn't bad as far as stability but it was severely congested. It needed to be bigger and you know whatever they build will be obsolete 20 years from now. You get a good view of the stadium from up there. They also claim that 3% of our GDP passes over that bridge and I believe it.

I've grown up in the Chicago suburbs and although I have no complaints about the growth, they are constantly working on the roads just due to the sheer traffic. They keep building bigger and better but we still get overcome by disrepair. The tollway is redoing their structures for the second time in my life span. The state is chipping in and doing some work of their own but it never lasts for long.

It was always a running joke that they use shitty concrete or asphalt on purpose so they can contract road repairs forever. I hope that changes. The technology today needs to be unleashed so we can invent a new tomorrow.
