ReplyMetanias and a few others should be finished....take off your football cap and go off into the sunset. It's like a party...time to leave. Good for Jim Giglio in challenging some things that were wrong.

ReplyPatch articles are a little overly ridiculous lately. Must be a slow news time. You see these types of news blurps in small town America where "Mrs Miller got her flower pot stolen off her front porch yesterday".

ReplyI really feel very bad for any owner who has a business along Rt. 30 going through New Lenox, Mokena and Frankfort. The economy is bad enough and then you throw in a construction project of this magnitude that is still not completed and seems like it's taken 5 years to finish.....well you can see how a business will soon run out of operating money. I will miss the Charley Horse, especially on those nice summer evenings out on their patio enjoying some food and drink.

ReplyLong time coming....we don't need mail delivered 6 days a week....for what? People sit on their bills that are due anyway for 2-3 weeks so what's an extra day--right?
Used to be you mailed a letter on Monday and it got there 4-5 days later, and I'm talking in-state mailing....not from here to California. That took 10 days. USPS does a great job, and any cost cutting measures by our government is good for all. -

ReplyThe problem with politics and people running for elections is that no one is really qualified to turn around a Village, Town, City, or Country like ours. We see it at all levels from the U.S. Presidency on down. Years ago there were qualified people who really did a good job as an elected official, but sorry to say those days are gone.
Seems like in Mokena every trustee has had their own agenda over the years I've been in town which has been since 1990. Lots of bickering, and people not looking out for the masses of which you serve, but rather your own street or neighborhood in which you reside. We are the only town over 10,000 people in the south suburbs without a McDonald's restaurant which provide much needed tax revenue for the communities in which they locate to. Congrats to New Lenox, your new Portillo's is great...........yummmmm and oh those needed tax dollars. Good luck newly elected trustees and Mr Fleisher if you are our mayor after the election. All Mokena eyes will be on all of you.

Stay healthy and give it your best shot in camp with the AZ Cards. Typically free agents are a long-shot, so use this as your mental edge going in. Good luck.
