You mean small home owners don't get this benefit? Why Taxpayers Will Bail Out the Rich When the Next Storm Hits - NBC News

Don't worry us Illinoisans know how to drive unlike most Midwesterners. If anything we are to heavy footed...

How are the pier crowds in late June? We get in Saturday June 21st and need a place to go to dinner any good local seafood joints ie not the ones all the tourist go to.

My favorite Far Side cartoon was a picture of three doors in hell individually labelled "Murderers", "Rapists", and "People who drive slowly in the left lane."

You get to freeze thy arse off, live in the same state as our President, Louis Farrakhan, Jesse Jackson and hunt some of the biggest woodgoats in the country.

It's like they drag race at 35mph lol. Tempts me to pass them both in the middle turning lane, but we all know that ain't safe

Sea N Suds for a moderately priced fried feast. The others I like are tourist spots-#1 Cosmos-great local seafood and sushi. #2 Cobalt-great seafood and an awesome view, best breakfast buffet around. #3 Flippers, #4 Lester's, #5 Ginny Lane at the Wharf. Keep in mind some of these places will cook the fish you catch if you filet them and serve with sides for a lot less than their menu prices.

Checked out Sea and Suds and will definitely make a visit there.. Is mayo a normal hot dog topping down there? WEIRD!

Mayonnaise on a hot dog....... I'll pass.

Yah almost as bad as Ketchup on a hot dog..

There is a new Sheriff in town! Big Daddy's has just opened in Gulf Shores across the street from Tacky Jacks. It is just as good as the Fish River location, but way closer to home.

I live near the Cabela's in Hoffman Estates and each year I go to GS I make my first stop J&M.
Great people and you can get the right set-up you need for the pier with their help and for a good price.
As long as you are making the trip and plan to fish the pier either bring or buy a set-up for kings, reds, or jacks.
One day of watching those be caught and you will be glad you did.
After a day of being on the pier you can always buy what you think you need the rest of the week.
Fishing up here doesn't have the excitement you get on the pier even if it is the guy next to you hooking up.
