Fire at the Pines Trailer Park in New Chicago near the armory. Multiple jurisdictions responded as well as 2 medevac. Sounds like 2 people air lifted, 1 of them possibly a baby or young toddler.

Wagering the 90's

Wagering the 90's

I have a vague memory of one that basically twist locked and pulled straight out, but I'll be damned if I can remember which car it was.

Probably was the 80s

Break a plastic clip?

No I have an Acadia. You have to remove 5 screws from the the liner in the wheel well so you can squeeze your hand in there around the corner, then blindly unscrew the plastic dust cover, rotate the bulb out and pull a tab back to disconnect it from the wire harness, attach the new bulb, rotate it back in, reinstall the dust cover, and screw the liner bavk up.

[chef larry]

We'll get you a date with Jedi. He can tell you.

And don't forget all the hugs too.

 

[melensdad]

And don't forget all the hugs too.

It's hard to forget when you wake up screaming in the dark due to the nightmares that haunt your sleep.

OK grab a chair...

Jedi will give u a short version for now.
10 or so years ago at a house jedi no longer lives in one night jedi heard this growling noise right outside jedi's son bedroom window. It sounded horrible and evil. Both jedi n son were freaking out n then we heard screeching, and banging before it got quiet. From the small window in the room jedi could not make out what was outside, nor did jedi see anything on the garage roof from the window.

That night jedi nor son slept, scared to death that whatever it was was trying to get in. When daylight finally broke and jedi did an inspection of roof nothing was found apart from claw marks near the siding and by the window. No clue what it was but the marks were deep and the easement was open.

Thus the research began into what it could be. NWI info said it was a racoon. Jedi did not believe as jedi had never seen a raccoon before in NWI, north lake county. Plus it's all homes where this home was at.

In any case what does jedi n son see a few days later sitting on top of the roof like a big fat "pig" eating a piece of corn! A f.... raccoon!!!! He saw us, we saw it and jedi and son were in disbelief. The son tells jedi. Shoot it dad, shoot it!

But with what. The rifle was inside the shot. The sidearm as well. Not to mention shooting at that angle inside town limits INSANE!!! When we got out of the car, the raccon had the audacity to toss the finished corn at us and then walked off to the backside of the house and dissappeared.


Looking in the backyard sure enough the trashcans were open, garbage everywhere. The neighbor dog going crazy, barking and slamming into the fence.


So the following day jedi calls a local pest company, guardian post control. $600 and they come out with a cage and some bait. They put the cage on the roof and we wait. A day goes by and nothing. Two days the bait is gone the cage is empty. 3 days the company comes back, re baits and nothing. Day 4 bait is gone and empty cage. Company says jedi has no racoon must be a squirrel and that per the contract their work is done. really!! Jedi saw a f... large racoon not a squirrel!!

So once again on NWI INGo and melensdad and gunbunnies to the rescue. Melensdad loans jedi a cage. Both members tell jedi to put peanut butter and oreos on a small plate in the backyard. Also to cut the branches of the trees near the house.

(To be continue)
