Month: September 2007

Please enjoy a picture of 9th Ward Alderman Anthony Beale. Today’s Parade was very classy. I thought the walk would never end. The 9th Ward Back to School Parade was from 125th & Michigan to 111th & King in the Chicago’s South Side. The entertainment was excellent and the event was fun. I think this young man pictured with Alderman Beale is his son. Please visit the 9th Ward website, click here: http://www.ward09.com/site/epage/5093_292.htm Photo by Patrick McDonough.

Thank you to Chicago Firefighters for showing my kids the proper way to handle a fire in your home. My sons learned important tips to get out alive. They also received a “10 steps to Fire Safety Booklet”. Thank you to all my City of Chicago Firemen and women. This mobile home was given by an Insurance company to help save lives.

The Chicago Police have a nasty habit of not figuring out the corruption and vice that fuels the political scene in our town. Please enjoy some little political pigs that decided to commit suicide rather than give up the details of Hired Truck Scandals, contract scandals, Hiring Scandals, and massage parlors. I must say, most political piggies would never think of shooting themselves in the head, but as the Feds get closer to the Political Mob, more piggies will keep committing “Suicide”. Maybe we will figure out who is killing after Daley is out of office. If your wife is treating you bad, you can get a back massage in the 11th Ward that will make you forget your vows.

Mayor Daley likes riding bikes. In fact he got hurt riding a bicycle a while ago. I hope Mayor Daley remembered to put the bike seat on for this bumpy ride. My goodness, this Bridgeport native has a funny face, doesn’t he? Photo by A.P. Enjoy Patrick McDonough.

Today I took my family to church to remember September 11, 2001. Mayor Daley is in Paris France having a good time. I am sorry and apologize to every Chicago Area soldier that serves America. All Chicagoans, except maybe, Mayor Daley, supports our troops. Patrick McDonough.
