More than 45 percent of Americans make a resolution every year, according to statisticbrain.com. Some people vow to live a healthier lifestyle, others promise to spend more time with family, and many say they will try to save money.
As millions of Americans make resolutions to improve their lives, what could we do right here in Homewood and Flossmoor to make it an even better place to live?
Perhaps you would like to see more diversity in downtown local businesses. Maybe you the local elections in spring are on your mind. How about crime, or education?
What is on your H-F wish list? What is one thing you would improve in 2013?
So sorry. Not the late 70's lol The highest home values were 2004-2008 :)
Us old folks white and black or fools which is what the mommas call me are the victims of collateral damage we have also invested hard earned money in what was nice areas but still has high taxes thanks to the HF gangsters most of the remaining old fools who had the same expectations when we sent our kids to a school that had a high achievements are toast, our homes and area use to be a selling point and still is if u compare it to the killing zone schools of the South side, but if they destroyed neighboring homes as the HF wannabe's did we have nothing but memories which can be racist but are usually accurate.
In lieu to this idea, we all agree to ignore them. They get too much air time (hot).
I think "Butch" is actually a teenager with too much time on his hands and is actually part of the "dumbing down" he continues to mention, hence "u" instead of "you" and the run-on sentences. Not sure when or where you attended school, but this ----> . <---- is called a period. You might want to use it so your ramblings make a little bit of sense. Sadly I've noticed that almost every paper that covers the northern and western suburbs have residents engaging in intelligent and productive comments about their communities, even when disagreeing with each other. Papers covering the south suburbs are full of ignorant and racist, yes there's that word, comments. This reflects badly on a community where the majority are decent, highly-educated folks. Homewood and Flossmoor are NOT ghetto places, all you have to do is drive around to see that. However, they do have ghetto residents, as does every community in the United States because "ghetto" is also defined as low-class or unrefined. And we all know that low-class people come in all colors. Agreeing with others, "Don't Feed the Trolls."
The topic was," how to make SHANG RA LA better" THE racist old survivors are no longer giving their homestead to the lowest bidders as we were forced to do in the 60's on the South Side see how great that turned out? Good for u I bet! Gresham, West Englewood, Gage Park, Marquette park our old stomping grounds are now as safe as Juarez or any Cartel settlement this side of the Hindu Kush! Sadly Real Estate mover I thought everyone but Real estate Brokers looking for deals would be happy there actual tax payers willing to stand up to the GANGSTERS - terrorists in any part of paradise aka HF or adjoining towns where the gangsters and terrorists do NOT live but party 24/. ,HW and FLOSS MOOR are where they retire to after the party is over! shang ra la are u aware of the place?
! I stand by my contribution what makes HF better is a Casino just as it has for Joliet and new principal, Deans, attendance and truancy officials for the Angels in heaven on earth.
1) Residents to stop complaining or making excuses & help make a change! 2) Stop blaming Truant or Police Officers & make the parents babysit their own kids! 3) Attend Board Meetings, voice your complaint, sign petitions for more officers 4) Project your investments & stop allowing your neighbors to be victimized 5) HF Community Neighborhood Watch Organizers 6) Residents/parents should volunteer to help the school districts 7) Help enforce the laws that streets are for vehicles, not teenagers walking in the middle of it or playing basketball/football in the middle of them...use your driveway 8) HF should hire Community Officers so the Police Officers can focus on crime 9) Add street lights in the residential areas/subdivisions where crime increased 10) Parents stop socializing when dropping off/picking up kids can reduce accidents
it IS your residents REAL ESTATE red liners and HS students that have done their best to destabilize MY Shangra-la, read what Juvenal the Poet, Ts Mom and baby boomer are also saying we are the voices trying to improve HOME SWEET HOMEWOOD and Flossmoor which is the topic.
