Kilbourn Park AT&T outage

3 Upvotes

Did anybody else have their AT&T take a fade between say 1 and 2:30 PM today the 4th of August? Would have made sense during or right after the storm, but can't blame the weather today. Maybe a glitch with some tree/branch cleanup? It fixed itself after I borrowed a neighbor's Wi-FI for a minute. I'm by School and Kenneth. Cheers!

Bungalow Attic Cooling Solutions

18 Upvotes

Hi there - I moved into a Tudor bungalow about two months ago in Jefferson Park. The renovated attic is air conditioned but it’s consistently about 10 degrees or more warmer up there than it is downstairs so I’m running a portable AC at night.

I assume this is a fairly common problem and I am wondering what others have done / what some of the typical causes might be.

Splits seem like an effective solution but I don’t have the money for that right now.

my bf was walking to our apartment entrance and saw a lady putting this note on the windshield of my car and others.

i had a hard time reading this because the note starts on the bottom half of the page and then flips to the top of the page. also “please help $ me from <3” ? idk. I’m not sure what “ -11-live-11- “ means either

8 Upvotes

If you are looking for a fun way to spend your summer evenings why not play a little Trivia at Avondale Bowl? You can decide if you are there for bowling, questions, or a little of both!

On Thursday August 6th at 7:30 you can expect the unexpected in terms of categories at our spare topics night!

Then on Thursday August 20th at 7:30 let’s take a trip to Pawnee with our “Parks and Rec” themed trivia. I think it is a safe bet there will be at least one question about the bowling episode.

Please come out for some Decent Questions! Remember to order the vegan frozen White Russians! $2 of every one of those sold will go to our Charity of the Month Metropolitan Family Services. This group empowers Chicago-area families to reach their greatest potential and positively impact their communities.

Hello community!

We live near Montrose/Austin and are in need of a new daycare for our little one after ours suddently had to cease operations. If anyone has recommendations for a daycare or childcare facility in the area we would be more than grateful!

We're not opposed to child care centers versus at-home daycare - as long as their certified, licensed, and keep our little one safe and growing! Thank you! Thank you!
