No opinion. Just check it out.

In case you had not noticed, this month has 5 Sundays, 5 Mondays and 5 Tuesdays. This can only happen in months that start on Sunday and have 31 days. The next one is May 2011 and then January 2012. It is a slow news day.
Two hundred years ago tomorrow, August 25, 1810, the can was invented. It would be a different world if we did not have the can in our lives. Many inventions have made the world a better and easier place to live. Among them are the printing press, pasteurization, vaccines, the bottle cap, the combustible engine, refrigeration and the can. Imagine life without any of these innovations and inventions. Many of the inventors that followed stood on the shoulder of giants who came before them and adapted.
My heart goes out to the miners in Chile and the Chilean people. I hope this becomes the feel-good story of the year. What an ending if a Christmas time rescue brought this story to a successful conclusion. May God bless them all?
SURPRISE! SURPRISE! Cornfest may stay at the airport site. If I recall correctly, the organizers have consistently said he move was temporary. The move was to be for two years while the downtown streets were renovated. I do not have a vested interest in Cornfest anymore. Several years ago, I maintained a law office in downtown DeKalb. Even then, Cornfest did not bring me any trade the days of the fest but people did see my signs and office. It probably helped in that way.
The City of DeKalb apparently does not have total control over the event. Technically, the organizers are on their own but they seem to speak with city authority and approval. Wouldn’t it be nice if our leaders, even those with no real authority, respected us enough not to lie to us and treat us as idiots? Everyone I talked to about Cornfest moving to the airport knew it was not coming back downtown. The next lie we hear about Cornfest moving will be the temporary move to the Convo Center, probably because of repaving of the airport runways.
The Daily Chronicle announced a new website” dedicated solely to high school sports in DeKalb County”. I wish them luck and hope they are aware Kaneland is not in DeKalb County. Check out the new website at:
daily-chronicle.com/dcpreps
It is a nice looking website. I have only read it today but I will give it a chance to find itself.
Have a great day. Just one Tuesday left in August, 2010.
