Up in TV Valhalla, the ghosts of Jackie Gleason and Art Carney can rest easy. They won't be dislodged from our memories by the glossy new movie, "The Honeymooners," which takes Gleason's most famous creationthe domestic adventures of Ralph Kramden, New York City bus driverand transforms it into the usual TV series knockoff movie mush.

But the movie suffers from a devastating flaw for a comedy: It isn't very funny. As we watch Cedric's Ralph and his desperate strategies to make money for a new home for Alice, we get the setup for many an old Gleason show recounting Ralph's dreams of glory, Norton's inept assistance, the inevitable crash and the equally inevitable "Baby, you're the greatest!" clinch between Ralph and endlessly tolerant Alice. (Gabrielle Union plays the old Audrey Meadows part.) But, though the patterns are there, the laughs aren't, mostly because the writing is so lazy and formulaic.
In the movie, Ralph's dream involves a bidding war over a suburban home with a slimy real estate speculator (Eric Stoltz), and such foredoomed get-rich-quick schemes as the purchase of a vintage subway train car, dog-racing with a greyhound Norton rescues from a dumpster and even some panhandling and performance art. The dog racing allows screen time for Jon Polito (the gangster from "Miller's Crossing") as a racing nabob and John Leguizamo as a dog trainer-hustler. Leguizamo is usually a surefire laugh-getter, as is Cedric. But they're all snared by the script.
What went wrong with the movie is amply displayed in a scene where Ralph nefariously spices up the dinner of his mouthy mother-in-law (Carol Woods) to make her sick and is then forced to eat the stuff himself. The moviemakers and Cedric build the scene up, get us laughing and then drop it, where, in their classic scenes, a Gleason and a Carney would have kept the situation going until we were helpless. Great comedy, which is what we don't see here, often involves going too far, and then going further.
The old "Honeymooners" was Gleason's baby, but here no one seems in charge, including director John Schultz ("Like Mike"). We don't get the rough-hewn, populist bite of the show, just as we don't get Gleason's seraphic nuttiness or the loosey-goosey reactions of Carney. Despite the best efforts of Cedric and Epps, and they do have their moments, "The Honeymooners" just keeps rambling along until we get to the credits. The funniest line in the entire show may be the revelation that "The Honeymooners" was shot on location in Ireland, with help from Irish government funds.
If you're going Irish, why not go all the way? Why not Ralph O'Kramden? Ed McNorton? Cedric the Leprechaun? Shooting "The Honeymooners" in Dublin, with a few New York City exteriors, is funnier than most of what the movie's four writers dream up. Maybe they should have gone on a honeymoon.

Last Friday, Jan. 29, at Kimball Elementary School, the Student Government held a Food Drive Kickoff. Some students and local business members volunteered in this kickoff. The kids and business members competed in relays and competitions. Everyone had a great time.
Our theme this year is "Don't Clown Around, Donate Now." The Drive will take in various amounts of items. The most needed are: dish soap, laundry soap, tooth paste, tooth brushes, personal items, food, and cleaning supplies.
Some foods are instant potatoes, cereal, bottled water, vegetables, canned fruit, and pasta of any type. All of the food will benefit the Kimball Area Food Shelf.
If you have questions, call (320) 398-2211, and ask for Mary Mathies, or at the school, Paulette Hauge, or Melissa Herrington at KES, phone number (320) 398-5425.

It was a Sunday, it was Mother's Day, and there were reports of a snake loose in Chimborazo Park. A lot of people might have wanted to put a lot of space between themselves and Chimborazo Park upon hearing that news, but not Richmond Police Lt. Daniel Minton.
Minton said he saw a story posted on Church Hill People's News and headed out there himself when a citizen reported that he had found the snake and had called Richmond Animal Control but no one had arrived on the scene yet. Minton, no stranger to snakes, arrived first.
"I used to keep snakes," Minton said. "But I got rid of my collection because I have three kids, and it doesn't fit into the family anymore." At the park, Minton picked up the snake and transported it back home in a pillow case. It's now safely in the care of Richmond Animal Control. Authorities don't have any leads on who the snake's owner is.
The snake was a three-foot ball python, named for its tendency to coil up into a ball when scared. So saying, Minton's Twitter shows the python assuming that pose in every picture he shared with his followers.

Sewing, crafting, inspiration…
I was so excited when this month's issue of Sewing World magazine arrived. As well as my regular bag-making project, I had the honour of having my very first techniques article make it's debut appearance this month! This three page feature is the first of six articles for my new 'Brilliant Bags' bag-making techniques series. I've been contributing projects to Sewing World for about 18 months now (has it really been that long?), which still fills me with pride and delight, but over the past few months I've also been working on this brand new series. Such a fantastic new challenge! I feel that I've managed to take another wee step up the ladder in my effort to offer inspiration to others. I've started off the new series with Choosing Fabrics, with an in-depth look at the variety of fabrics you can use to make fab bags. The next five installments get down to the essential elements of bag-making, including detailed step-by-step instructions on the different construction methods.
This month's bag project is the Daisy Mae bag, aptly named after one of the fabric prints I've used, from the gorgeous PB&J collection by BasicGrey for Moda Fabrics. PB&J stands for Peanut Butter and Jelly, how cute is that? If you didn't see my sneak preview last month, here it is:

Great self-catering optionPosted Apr 7, 2014
Pros: Location, gardens, size of the apartment, cleanliness and beach towels!
Cons: It would be ideal if there was a small amount of milk provided in the fridge as coffee is provided.
Location: We were only booked for one night but the Sky Beach Club hotel does great food and drink and you can use the pool.
We stayed at the Hut Pointe Inn for one night whilst visiting Governors Harbour. It was located very close to the Sky Beach Club which was our location for dinner and given that everything is very spaced out on Eleuthera and we didn't have access to a hire car, it was perfect. It would be ideal for a group of people or small family as it is very spacious, clean and two bedrooms with large living area but that wasn't really our personal situation. However, we would totally come back and/or recommend it with a hire car full of food and drink if we were staying for a few days!

Immaculate and comfortable hotelPosted Mar 10, 2014
The hotel is in a good location, close to the airport and easy driving distance to small towns and beaches. The grounds are beautiful and the rooms are refreshingly clean.

Nice, Clean Hotel, Far from BeachPosted Jan 12, 2014
Pros: Clean. Comfortable beds.
Cons: Have food available on site
Location: Sky beach club is across the way and they have wonderful food and you can use their beach and pool if you buy food or drinks there - which is nice.
Stayed one night. Was anticipating that it was on the deach but it was a hike to the beach. Also, there is no place to get food within easy walking distance. Other than that it was nice and very clean and comfortable.

Beautiful and very near the beach.Posted Nov 19, 2013
Pros: It's clean and that's what really matters.
Cons: Water heating. We had to bathe in luke warm water.
Location: Nothing to do that was in the vicinity. Had to drive far, but that's what happens when you're in Eleuthera.
Nice hotel, clean and comfortable.

Close to Governor's Harbor, for Work or businessPosted Nov 13, 2013 on Hotels.com
Hut Point apartments are located in a beautiful old Bahamian building. Convenient between GHB and the town of Governor's Harbor (with shops and services), central on Eleuthera. The apartments are very clean, newly renovated, have a fairly decent equipped kitchen, good internet connection and ample parking. Not a major issue, but the building is close to the road. We did not use this, but beach access across the street at Sky Bahamas is granted when ordering drink/food (there are plenty other beaches, of course).

There was one problem..we had hot water for the 1st day and then none..apparently something happened to the solar heating and until we left 3 days later we had to take cold showers. Not too pleasant with early morning temperatures in the low 70's and evening temperatures about the same.

Super ValuePosted Nov 26, 2012 on Hotels.com
Hut Point was a superior value for lodging in Governor's Harbour. The grounds were being worked on every day and after a few more weeks of recovery from a recent hurricane they will be filled with greenery and flowers again. Our staff contact was Kathy and she took care of anything we asked her for right away. She was also very helpful with entertainment and dining suggestions. The room (#6) was spacious and nicely appointed. Beds were comfortable and very clean. I would stay at Hut Point again. It is a very relaxing property and private.

Nice Place To Stay & Friendly ServicePosted Jan 13, 2012
Pros: Cleaniness & spacious suites
Location: 15 minute drive to Governor's Harbour (the main town)....and located in the middle of the Island....
The owners Adelaide and Brendan go out of their way to make sure your requests and needs are met...simply email them or call them and tell them what you need, or call them for recommendations to places to visit and eat and they will get back to you right away...and they live on the property too..so they get back to you quick the same day. And Brendan even stopped by himself at our room to check to see how things were going.

Good central location in EleutheraPosted Nov 21, 2011
Location: Harbour island makes a very nice daytrip
Very nice and clean, the Hut Pointe has only seven rooms. It was super quiet,even with the occasional car going by. Eluethera is not a busy island. I liked the convenience of having our own kitchen, well equipped. Grocery store was a short drive to town. All the beaches and activities were close by. One of the nicest beaches was maybe 500 yards away, about a 10 minutes stroll. Very clean private and stunningly beautiful. Only two drawbacks; you must have a car in Eleuthera, and also, there were no restaurants nearby. However in town there were a number of good places to eat, but couldn't walk to them ; way too far. All in all though great value for money and very good place to stay.

Ofc. Ronnie Hartley has been selected by his peers for Officer of the Month!
Officer Hartley used his incredible investigative experience and skills to find a sexual battery crime scene with very little information to go on. He was told by detectives that the hotel involved in the sexual battery was described by the victim as in the "South West Area" of town and the victim described the bathroom as having little tiles and the room would be directly in front of you as you pull into the hotel or motel to park.
Based on Officer Hartley's years of experience and knowledge of this zone, he asked around, going to several different motels in the area. He spent a substantial amount of time trying to locate the crime scene area. He was striking out on his search until he got to Motel 6 and asked them about the description of their rooms and described the small bathroom tiles to the management. He was given a negative response regarding his description. He was about to leave the area obtaining nothing further to assist him with the crime scene location but He then inquired a bit further to the management personnel. He requested to be shown rooms that may be similar to the description provided by the victim of the sexual battery. He was then given consent by the management to look at a few rooms. It was at this point the manager showed him a couple of handicapped rooms that may have fit the description he was looking to locate. He located two rooms that actually matched the description of the victim's recollection of events. After looking at one room it was completely clean and appeared to have not been rented by anyone recently. He looked at room 105 and determined right away that this appeared to be the room the sexual battery had occurred. He located two used condoms and a wrist band for the bar in question that the victim had visited just before the sexual battery.
At this point, Officer Hartley locked down the room and called for CID and Forensics to assist. He then went to the front desk and obtained the suspect who rented the room by obtaining a print out. He determined that the room had been rented at about 230 am just one hour prior to the Offender driving through Burger King. This was information that the victim remembered and told detective Harrison. He then gave the name to Officer Kesting to dig a little and he was able to obtain a name that lived in the same complex as the victim involved in the sexual battery. The birthdays did not match the passport ID used at the Motel for check in but Officer Hartley was determined that he had the correct suspect. Officer Hartley actually located the suspect Offender who ultimately confessed to the crime and was given a million dollar bond by the judge.
This type of investigation is typical of Officer Hartley. He had limited information to go on but do to his expert knowledge of his zone and his unique investigative skills he was able to basically find the crime scene and the suspect with very little information provided to him. Due to his tenacious effort a sexual battery victim was able to identify the suspect via a photo line-up and the evidence was collected for prosecution before the room had been cleaned and vital evidence lost. If it had not been for the innate investigative skills and his tenacious attitude to continue to find the suspect this case may have gone unresolved. Officer Hartley does this type of work on a daily basis and takes pride in his knowledge of his area. He should be nominated as Officer of the month for this spectacular investigative effort.
Officer Hartley is unique and one of a kind in his dogged determination to investigate crimes thoroughly that are committed in his area of responsibility. He is a huge asset to the Gainesville Police Department and the citizens of Gainesville. He should be recognized for this incredible effort and the many others not always mentioned that he does on a daily basis for the Gainesville Police Department.
Sgt. Nick Ferrara has been selected as Supervisor of the Quarter. Daily, Sgt. Ferrara demonstrates the qualities our department looks for in a leader. He is a teacher and a mentor. As a former SWAT team member, his tactical knowledge is very high and other officers trust him to make sound decisions.
Sgt. Ferrara's management style is firm, but easy going. He has high standards for his subordinates, but treats them with respect. Sgt. Ferrara is clearly well liked by all members of midnight shift.
Sgt. Ferrara leads by example. He is the definition of a FIELD supervisor. Sgt. Ferrara works with his team nightly. He responds to hot calls; he'll take a perimeter position; he backs-up his team on traffic stops; he mentors and teaches.
Sgt. Ferrara believes in our Community Oriented Policing efforts. He has spearheaded both the reboot of the Safety Kiosk concept at midtown and has developed an Alcohol Awareness Detail. He loves to interact with citizens and is a positive reinforcement for how we are perceived by the citizens we serve.
The following are some opinions from his teammates:
"He was very good to work under as a new officer. He was always available and willing to help out. He was a great source of information and a great teacher, whether it be on tactics or legal issues pertaining to the job. He holds all of his officers to a high standard, which, without micromanaging, pushes them to try harder. He treats his officers as equals, and it's something we all appreciated."
"As a veteran officer, I have worked with and for Sgt. Ferrara. He has outstanding knowledge and a great ability to impart it to others. I still use him as a resource due to his ability. He is an excellent leader and shares any burden that is asked of officers. He is proactive and substantially contributes to finding and solving crimes. He is exemplar by word and deed to the ethos of professional law enforcement."
Sgt. Ferrara is tactically sound. His prior investigative experience shines through while assisting on major case calls and in the supplements he writes. He also excels at the administrative aspect of supervising. Whether it be handling complaints or dealing with problem employees. Sgt. Ferrara cares about the team and the overall mission of GPD. For all these reasons and many more, Sgt. Ferrara was selected. Congratulations!
Ofc. Bailey is a member of GPD's Honor Guard, Awards Committee and the Employee Advisory Committee. As the GPD Military Liaison, Ofc. Bailey oversees the GPD Military Assistance Program. He provides assistance to our employees who currently serve in the US Reserves or National Guard, as well as to those who have served in the past. He assists employees who are in the process of deploying, are deployed and those returning from deployment. He assists with various issues that arise and acts as a liaison for the members and GPD. While they are deployed, Ofc. Bailey corresponds with them and ensures they are kept up to date with current events at GPD. When requested, he checks on the well-being of their family members back home. Upon their return, he provides assistance to help solve issues and ensure they have a seamless transition back to GPD. When new personnel are hired, he briefs them all on the GPD Military Assistance Program and provides relevant information. Ofc. Bailey also ordered the GPD Military Service Recognition Pins and facilitated the awarding of that recognition. This past fall, Ofc. Bailey coordinated two presentations at UF football games with UF's Athletic Association's program: Saluting those that served. This year, Ofc. Bailey has been working tirelessly on a military policy for GPD.
Ofc. Bailey is a consummate team player. He is perhaps the most humble police officer at our department. His extracurricular work ethic does not overshadow his patrol work:
On 09/13/13, Ofc. Jeff Bailey worked a retail theft at 1515 N Main St. where he identified Glenson L. Duncan as the suspect. Ofc. Bailey arrested Duncan the next day. At the time, Duncan was in possession of obvious stolen goods, still packaged and obviously possessed for re-sale on the streets. The Kangaroo clerks said that Glenson was a habitual thief and had targeted their store many times before. Duncan's MO (stealing items in bulk) and physical description also matched several other cases worked by GPD officers all over the city on all three shifts. Ofc. Bailey researched only a 5 month window of retail thefts in RMS and narrowed down Duncan as the suspect in many. Ofc. Bailey adjusted his work schedule by coming in on his days off and before work. He obtained and reviewed video surveillance in 7 cases where he himself could identify Duncan as the thief. In collecting these videos, identifying stolen goods and speaking with store employees, it was relayed to Ofc. Bailey that Duncan stole many more times than what was reported to LEO, most likely dozens of times. Some had even nicknamed Duncan the "Red Slippered Bandit." All the businesses were highly appreciative of his investigation. Duncan had18 felony convictions and 16 misdemeanor convictions. He had 7 theft convictions (4 times for misdemeanor petit theft, 2 times for felony – petit theft and once for felony grand theft.) Again, Ofc. Bailey adjusted his schedule and met with two assistant state attorneys on how to create the mittimus so as to streamline the charging and clerking process. Although he could have kept digging deeper into more cases, the SAO was satisfied with 7 cases and will prosecute all as felonies. Ofc. Bailey ultimately charged Duncan with 7 counts of felony petit theft and scheming to defraud via a 4-page mittimus. As these cases were [seemingly] only misdemeanors, no one would ever have followed up had Ofc. Bailey not connected the dots and put forth great effort and work, Duncan would have continued on with his crime spree.
Congratulations to Officer Bailey for being selected as the GPD Officer of the Year for 2013!

NFL.com's Schein: Cardinals will contend for Arizona Super Bowl
Originally published: Apr 1, 2014 - 12:32 pm
But up to this point, no team has ever played in a Super Bowl it was hosting.
The Arizona Cardinals, naturally, would like to be the first to do so, and they'll have their shot to accomplish the feat in 2014.
And as far as NFL.com's Adam Schein is concerned, they have a legitimate change.
In a piece laying out his 'bold calls', Schein puts the Cards making a run at the Super Bowl.
Am I delusional? Nuts? Or is this a visionary take?
Here's the truth: I don't know right now if the Arizona Cardinals are one of the top six teams in the NFC. But they are among the top seven. Of course, that's the difference between being a playoff team and staying home.
I feel the same way about this team as I felt in the back half of last season: If the Cardinals make the playoffs out of the tough NFC West, they'll be dangerous, what with that incredible, play-making defense. Veteran receiver Larry Fitzgerald is a stud. I loved the pickups of offensive tackle Jared Veldheer, receiver Ted Ginn and tight end John Carlson. And remember, guard Jonathan Cooper -- a 2013 first-round pick -- is coming back this year after missing his entire rookie season due to injury.
Meanwhile, general manager Steve Keim compared running back Andre Ellington to All-Pro stud Jamaal Charles on my SiriusXM Radio show, "Schein on Sports." I buy it. And so should you.
At last week's NFL Annual Meeting, second-year coach Bruce Arians openly talked about becoming the first host team to make the Super Bowl. That's the expectation. The only challenge? Getting into the playoffs.
But I do indeed love the Cardinals this season.
The Cardinals finished 10-6 last season and were arguably one of the best teams in the NFC by the time they were finished playing.
And while they have added some key pieces during the offseason, they have also lost some effective players. The 2014 Cardinals will be different than the 2013 version, which means they'll have to prove themselves all over again.
But if they can find a way to be one of the NFC's top six teams, then they'll have a chance to make some history.

The Ragin' Cajuns Men's basketball teams win over Georgia State University in overtime has assured them a ticket to the NCAA tournament. With the team being on a national stage, you may wonder what influence does that have on the university.
Studies have shown, when the university or college's athletics program does very well on a national level, there's a much greater interest on students behalf to find out more about that school.
Eric Maron, Assistant Director for Athletics Marketing and Promotions at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette says, "You saw that in Indianapolis when Butler went to the NCAA Final Four, they saw a 40% jump in the number of applications for admission and we're looking to see the same sort of thing, maybe not that high but having that kind of exposure, people will want to know about this university."
All of the 67 games played during March Madness are available to anyone with cable television, and according the National Collegiate Athletics Association, more than 175 million people tuned into last year's championship game.
To be on a national stage like this, it's important for recruiting because future players, if they see us and hear about us, there is only one Ragin' Cajuns in the entire country, a lot of other schools have different nicknames but there is only one that are the Ragin' Cajuns.
The faithful Ragin' Cajuns fans are not wasting any time getting their tickets to the big dance. "Ticket sales for the NCAA tournament are going really well. We expect to sell out of our allotment similar to what we do for the bowl games" said UL Ticket Manager, Matthew Casbon.
Different from the bowl games which the Cajuns football team has won the New Orleans Bowl the past three years, is that it's been almost an entire decade since the men's basketball team has qualified for the tournament.
"Fans are excited! It's been a while since the Cajuns head back to the big dance, so people are coming out very excited, they're going down to San Antonio and make a vacation out of it, enjoy the tournament and enjoy the atmosphere down there, it's exciting" said Casbon.
Unfortunately there won't be a fan bus this year, but there is a charter plane for the Annual Fund donors, so fans do have that opportunity, if interested, contact the athletic department at 482-5383.
For those interested in going to the game, Cajun fans will be in section 20 and 120. Tickets prices are $70. Don't forget to wear red to support the Cajuns.

She never has a moment free of pain,but she only ever cries with a smile on her face.

Health and Safety Jobs – Do you Qualify?
Considering the important role that health and safety and health and safety officer jobs play within the workplace, it is only natural that there can often be fairly stringent entry requirements for health and safety professions. However, should you meet them, a career in health and safety can be one of the most rewarding that there is.
Whilst a degree is not always essential for health and safety jobs, there is a definite move within the sector to only admit graduates – with the following degrees:
Occupational safety degrees: of course a degree in occupational safety is a great lead in to the health and safety jobs market, and bearing in mind that it is a discipline that will often require you to explain and advise companies and their employees on health and safety issues, an academic knowledge in the subject is desirable.
Engineering degree: depending on the kind of health & safety jobs you are attempting to enter, an engineering degree will often be a requirement; this is especially the case in regards to the more technical strands of health and safety, such as offshore health and safety.
Along with occupational safety degrees and engineering degrees, degrees in life sciences and health studies may also be accepted – again this will depend on your area of interest. Whatever area you choose, a career in health and safety jobs can be one of the most rewarding there is, both in financial terms and in regards to job satisfaction.

One of the few movies that I would watch unintentionally if I were browsing on TV. Ebert gave this a bad rating, which in my case, I have lost a great deal of respect for his taste in movies. I read the review by Ebert, and he for all intent purposes was an idiot in the year 2000. 5/5 - see it.

This film is an amazing account of what happened during Roman reign and power.I enjoyed Phoenix,Harris,and Crowe and loved their performance;Maximus (Crowe) has to watch his family die under the terror of the emperor.He is forced into slavery,or he risks his own life.I thought this was horrific,the cruel and inhumane behavior of the peole in that time.Today,people enjoy Boxing,or football.I felt angry, that in that era,people were harsh;The battles were not a Sport,but in my opinion,murderous deeds.

Dude, Where's My Car?
So here's a story, I'll keep it brief and factual. I want to fill it with expletives, but it's more entertaining as a tale.
The reason I'm even telling it is to answer one of two questions.
1. "Uh, where is your car?"
2. "Why are you leaving Chicago?"
Once upon a time, I bought a car. A new 2012 Kia Soul+. I paid exorbitant amounts of taxes and registration fees, because I live in Chicago.
So a year later, in 2013, my registration expired. Normally in Illinois, you get a postcard in the mail reminding you to update it, and giving you a secret code to enter online or at a pay station to do so. I never got the post card.
No big deal, right? I can just go to a DMV. A pain in the butt, but much better than risking getting tickets for expired registration!
So I went to a DMV, they couldn't help me without the postcard and told me to go to a different location where they could.
I went to another DMV, they didn't know what the 1st DMV was talking about and couldn't help me without the postcard, but recommended I mail a letter to the secretary of state.
I mailed a letter to the secretary of state, and I assume he opened it up, rolled it into a tube, and smoked it like a cigar.
More DMV visits, emails, calls, letters follow, while I am bombarded with tickets for having expired registration. The first few I contested, and then got fined for contesting them, and was told that there is no excuse for having expired registration. Contesting the tickets costs 3x more than the original fine, so I just stopped contesting them and made a point to park in garages or parking lots as much as possible, since the city is using high tech devices in vehicles that read and flag license plates. It's like a sci-fi movie warning you of how much the future is going to suck, but it's the present, and it's not a movie, it's reality.
Having expired registration is also a great excuse for the Chicago police to pull you over and search your car for heroin, which has happened a half dozen times. Meanwhile I'm just playing a very expensive game of whack-a-mole, trying to keep my car from being towed or booted before I move away in a month to new city and state that allows you to register your vehicle.
Last month I went on a 2 week trip, and I drove my car. Apparently, I somehow ripped a hole in time and space, and my car was parking all over the city getting tickets for expired registration at the same time that it was climbing dirt roads in Montana, Washington, and South Dakota. I, unfortunately, wasn't split into 2 separate Benns, so I didn't get any of the tickets, or even know that they existed.
Until last night.
My car was booted around 10pm. That sets a 24 hour countdown where you have to travel to a far away location, plead guilty on paper and pay whatever made up fines they quote, or else they tow your car and start charging you $175 a day after that. So, ok. In a cab I go. The location was at an airport, but it wasn't an actual address. So I just get dropped off at the airport. I walk around like a zombie asking employees where this office is, and finally manage to find a woman who works for the airport who can see in my bloodshot eyes that I'm only about an hour away from being permanently mentally broken. She makes a dozen calls and finally locates the secret office. It's about a mile away from the airport.
So I walk in the middle of the sidewalkless street, at 4am, holding nothing but a piece of orange paper with my boot number on it. I finally find the office, which is oddly inside a taxi/limo staging lot. The one employee is asleep behind 4 inches of bulletproof glass. I tap, knock, pound, nothing. I finally play an MP3 on my phone and slide it under the glass. She wakes up, but is really mad that she was woken up.
After insisting that she try some alternate methods to find my car in the system for 10 minutes, it is finally located. She prints out a piece of paper that has the text "$1,600″ on it and slides it under the glass. No ticket numbers. Just "Pay this or your car is ours".
So I pay it and am informed that my car will be unbooted before 10am. I walk out and ask a cab driver to drive me home, but they tell me that they get fined for picking up a fare inside the staging area. But if I walk a mile back to the airport, they can pick me up, but there's also an airport fee. I don't even respond and just walk to the nearest el (subway) station. I don't have a "Ventra" card, and the system is timing out when I try to sign up for one. My old CTA cards that have $20 in prepaid fare on them no longer work. The person working in the train station has the same demeanor as the person working in the DMV.
So, with my phone out of batteries and my spirit burnt out, I just give up and walk home. The 7 or so miles actually only takes me about 3 hours. I go inside, pet my dog, and call a cab. After an hour wait, and another fare, the cab takes me back to my car. Well, correction, it takes me back to the location where my car was. It's gone now. I call a few numbers and finally manage to talk to a few people, and nobody seems to know where it is. They also keep suggesting that I'm being dishonest, since my car "shouldn't have" been towed.
So maybe it was stolen in the short window between the boot coming off and me coming to pick it up. I'm about to have a cab driver bring me to all of the tow yards in the city before filing a report and insurance claim.
And that, ladies and gentleman, is just one of the many, many tales behind me putting this dysfunctional, corrupt city behind me.

INTERVIEW: Lemonade (True Panther Sounds / Brooklyn) at 4:30pm!
"From their genesis as an improvisational project within San Francisco's experimental dance music scene, Lemonade grew to become an effervescing mutation of current music's explorations and antipodes; their early music drew from new-agey noise, grimey synths, Liquid Liquid rhythms and ecstastic 90′s house incantations. An early experience with Lemonade felt like a gloopy tantalizing pile of Nickelodeon slime; a warm one, pleasantly oozing over their audience's unified sweating body."
Lemonade will be playing at the Electric Pickle this Saturday. Listen in for chances to win free tickets.

Southampton's Rickie Lambert: Our season starts against Aston Villa
Southampton striker Rickie Lambert says the Saints' Premier League season starts now after a difficult set of opening fixtures
Rickie Lambert has declared that Southampton's season starts next weekend after the Saints suffered their fourth successive defeat since returning to the Premier League.
The newly-promoted side were handed a tough start to life back in the top flight, with fixtures against Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United in their opening four games.
Unsurprisingly, the Saints have failed to secure a single point from those games, scoring five and conceding 12 in the process, while also losing to Wigan Athletic at St Mary's.
But Lambert, who scored 27 goals in 39 appearances last season, is adamant Southampton must keep the faith ahead of a vital clash against Aston Villa next Saturday.
"We have learnt a lot in a short amount of time," said Lambert. "I would like to see what points other teams will get against City, United and Arsenal. We can't be too down.
"Arsenal had a couple of players we couldn't handle. They scored early and got better.
"It was obviously a very bad day and that might happen sometimes. But it's how we react and how we come back next week against Aston Villa. Our season will start now – it's about keeping belief."
Southampton suffered a 6-1 drubbing by Arsenal at The Emirates on Saturday, and Adkins admitted the Saints always knew their opening set of fixtures were going to be tough.
"Arsenal were very good. At times they were exhilarating as they have been many times here, it was a lesson for our players," Adkins told BBC Sport.
"If you give quality players time they will hurt you and that's what happened. We turned it over far too cheaply.
"We knew these first four games would be tough, we haven't got any points but we will get ready for next week and now we have to start getting points on the board. This is a ruthless division."

Ukrainian and Russian soldiers in stand-off at Crimea military base
Tensions remain high in the Crimean peninsula in Ukraine as European observers were again blocked from entering the by armed men.
There was a stand-off between Ukrainian soldiers and troops, thought to be Russian, at a military base outside Sevastopol.
Two trucks of Russian-speaking armed men arrived and quickly surrounded the base.
The Ukranian commander told ITV News' Senior International Correspondent John Irvine: "They have come to protect us. So why are their guns pointing towards our base?"
The base commander was unable to contact his superiors as radio contact was blocked by a Russian signal jammer.
As John reports from inside the base, Putin's claims that these soldiers, professional in their weaponry and demeanour, are not Russian "are farcical":
John tweeted updates on the situation as it unfolded on the base:
