My partner and I work in opposite directions—one ~20 min north of Lake Geneva, WI, the other in Lincoln Square (Chicago).
We’re trying to find a place in Illinois that’s a reasonable middle ground.
Any recommendations on best towns to split the commute? Also, is it better to be near I-94 or rely on Hwy 20 for getting into Lincoln Square?
If anyone is looking for something fun and social to do tonight, Chicago Backgammon League is hosting Portage Park Backgammon Club at The Nest Bar & Eatery.
It’s beginner-friendly, casual, and all skill levels are welcome. You can come solo, bring a friend, learn the game, or jump into matches if you already play.
The Nest Bar & Eatery
6859 W Irving Park Rd, Chicago, IL 60634
Tonight until 9:30 PM
Guest entry: $10
We’re trying to build up the new Portage Park night, so if you’ve ever wanted to learn backgammon or meet some friendly people in the neighborhood, tonight would be a great night to stop by.
All for the police funeral
Hey! Shot in the dark but my wife and I are new parents and also moved into North Mayfair last year. Any other new parents in the neighborhood want to meet at Gompers or otherwise hang? (Not sure where to post this!)
I live by Harlem and Higgins.
Hi, I currently have open availability and would like to volunteer during the week. Food kitchens, administrative, children, organizing, etc, something where I can be of service, network and help others.
Any good Pho spots around here? I’m not trying to drive up north for some good Pho
(I stay by Belmont and Austin for reference, but I can go anywhere😉)
Does anyone experience issues with picking up channel 5 on their antennas?
I understand we are in a digital era, but OTR antennas is a practically free way to get local channels.
I have an outdoor antenna mounted on the side of my place. It’s mounted on the south end, and it’s pointed south east. I put it up a couple months ago and it’s worked well for the most part.
I can pickup all of the big local stations no problem besides 5. I had ABC-7 on during the crazy Monday downpour and it didn’t skip a beat.
I have multiple TV’s in my place. Channel 5 distorts at all of the TV’s, regardless of weather and cloud coverage.
Hi neighbors 👋
I’m unable to attend the Savannah Bananas vs. The FireFighters games at Wrigley Field in Chicago, IL due to health reasons.
I have 5 tickets available for:
📅 Saturday, July 25
📅 Sunday, July 26
I’d love for these tickets to go to fans who can enjoy the games.
You can take 1, 2, 3, or all 5 tickets — I can transfer them separately if needed.
If you’re interested, please message me for details.
Bring your own coffee / tea for an social meet up and conversation to know new people.
This is free event

He doesn’t think you’re hot
