Buried Treasure in a Bookshelf
By Bob Spoerl, for rogerspark.com
Rogers Park handyman Michael Cain (no, not Michael Caine, the famous English actor) has helped renovate plenty of homes and fixed plenty of broken items in his nearly 25 years owning and operating “Mike’s Home Repair” on Chicago’s North Side. While every project is unique, one of his recent repairs sticks out like a diamond in the rough.
“Nothing like this has ever happened,” Cain said, referring to what he found on-site several weeks ago.
Cain and his crew were tearing down a bookcase in an old Rogers Park coach house. What happened next would have titillated your inner pawnbroker: six pistols, assorted jewelry and collectable coins were found stashed away inside the decaying book storage unit. It’s one of those eerie, exciting happenings when you don’t know if it’s appropriate to jump for joy or call the cops.

Invitation to Candidates in Contested 49th Ward Committeeman Races
As fun and intriguing as it is to speculate about political “what ifs,” let’s focus a bit on a couple of contested primary elections soon to be facing voters of the 49th Ward. For starters, let’s draw our attention to the contested race (actually races), for the position of (drum roll please) ….... 49th Ward Committeeman. Drum roll? Most of us know little about the race of Committeeman. Do we care?

Is this still true? Continue reading hereSpotlight - Alpha Adjusting
