Read between the lines of this post, NASCAR race shaping up to be a disruptive and economic disaster for Chicago. We mean think about it. Here we are with the worst air in Chicago history lingering as a race with dozens of race cars spewing even more exhaust in the heat dominates Lake Shore Drive as city traffic forced into smaller corridors compressing even more exhaust into those streets backed up with the overflow traffic from the re routes.This post clearly shows the real fans NOT embracing coming in by virtue of abundance of somewhat affordable hotel rooms available over a holiday weekend when you would think they would have pulled the trigger months ago to make their plans and reserve.We doubt that there will be many who pick up the slack in the next few days but you never know.We also posted the total and complete NASCAR centric rip off prices being charged for a six pack of beer below for your amusement.

We read this and think of the Mayans and the Aztecs and the Incas who disappeared from the face of the earth hundreds of years ago. No one can definitively pinpoint the reasons why those advanced and thriving civilizations were eradicated but when we process this natural cyclical escalation of our Sun it brings to mind the horror the people then must have felt when in their day it happened. All of these ancient and departed civilizations worshipped the sun and for them to realize that drought and the relentless heat was their “GOD” turning on them must have been heart wrenching.

Although on one level we can see the merit in giving prison inmates a fair chance by providing a quality education to them prior to release as we have seen the inherent difficulties in former prisoners adjusting to life on the outside, the other side is thinking of the generation that actually went to college and did NOT go to jail yet is CRIPPLED with non dischargable student loan debt for the priviledge. It truly can be conceived as a 2 edged sword

We read this history and immediately noticed a key part was missing as to why the Japs signed surrender declaration on a battleship.Remember the US had built 4 Iowa class battleships by 1944. They were the Iowa, the New Jersey, the Wisconsin and the Missouri. What the post here failed to note was that all 4 battleships were practically brand new at time of surrender on 9/2/1945 so why the Missouri? Because that was the home state of then president Harry S Truman, a further ball bust.
