Just a bunch of things I think are interesting or funny.

Just place the cops on Deerborn St.

The city of Chicago has decided that people who talk on cell phones are so dangerous that they must be banned from driving. Click here for story. Now talking on a phone while behind the wheel will subject you to a $50 fine. Which means that the penalty for using one of these devices may be more than you paid for the phone.

But if the real reason Chicago is doing this is for money, then they will simply place cops outside of the parking garages next to the Daley Center and Federal Court. We lawyers are always calling the office on the way back.

    Yes, please be aware of anyone talking on their cell phone on the road. I'm still waiting for the law that makes putting on makeup while driving illegal. Or maybe eating while driving. Or changing radio stations while driving. There are so many better things the chicago government could be doing and instead they concentrate on this stupid law. Give me a break! Thank god I live in the burbs.
