Ok let me get this straight. the School Board proposed the referendum and the member's wife supports the referendum.

The conflict is ,,,that she supports the referendum...she supports the referendum..

Mame did you support the referendum?

Or was it the ammonium thioglycolate, and if you did know why were you taking the shower, as I doubt you were !

I rest my case !!

Mark Twain put it best:

First, the Lord created the idiot.

That was for practice.

Then, he created the school board.

Some things never change.

So we have a non-paid board member who dedicates countless hours to the district and his wife who co-hairs a referendum effort and dedicates countless hours to the district...what we have here are 2 citizens who really want what's best for the children in this community!!! We should be applauding them and wishing we had thousands more like them!
The media finds this info from the IL Board of Elections. OK. Where is Brian Litteral's info? NOWHERE, because he is not registered anywhere as anything! Why? Because he is one angry guy in his basement!PHUH-LEZ!

Anyone who dedicates countless hours to the district without pay has another reason in mind....I find it difficult that it is just for the children...What are the hidden benefits for this couple....hmmmmmmm...What perk is not being mentioned here????? What political office is he or she after....something smells a little rotten in the classroom!!!!!!!!!!

This board member was newly appointed when another board member(former employee) stepped down. In the past this community has seen board members step into highly paid jobs for their votes. Was this board member selected because the admin saw him as a good "yes" man and he had an agenda with reaping the benefits from future building? Somehow something smells fishy here.....

The buildings are tired; the older classrooms are not optimally designed for today's teaching methods and classes. Teacher workrooms and break-out areas are minimal to non-existant. Investing in brain power and talent is so very important, and our District has done this, but it's finally time to provide the teachers the brick and mortar environments they need to best deliver learning to the children. In theory, an interested person can learn encircled within a group around a campfire, or in a one-room schoolhouse. However, those aren't necessarily the best environments. As a community, we can provide better, and as a community we should do what's right for our future and invest in our schools.

DG you must work for UNICOM - the $11,000 a month PR firm to sell the "YES" votes. We could do better if administrators didn't waste so much of the money in this district with frivolous spending, paying out lawsuits to union members by using outside contractors, an overpaid tech guy who passes the buck and doesn't know what he is doing by micro managing his staff. Check out what is paid out in pension bonuses and you would see we could invest more in our schools and students if we didn't allow unions and greed to drain the finances. What other business out there allows people to increase their salary the final years in office and get a nice per year chunk of money in order to increase their pension payments? Still smells fishy...

Since you asked. I will answer as honestly as is possible. He has abandoned his children from his first marriage and has presented a farce in court so as to not have to pay his fair share of child support which would provide for a decent upbringing of his TWO children. brian litteral stopped visitation with his children in 2004 without as much as a goodbye This is the "real" brian litteral. brian litteral has presented himself to the court as NOT being married to Mrs. Allison...sounds fishy...that ain't the half of it!!!) brian litteral has represented to the court various other lies which he and his lawyers have and will stand by as truths. He is a liar. Used high paid attorney's from the Law Office of Beerman Swerdlove to accomplish this small task of not having to provide a proportionate share of the expenses of raising his two brilliant, beautiful children.
For several years brian litteral paid only $212.67 per month in child support (provided by Mrs. Allison as Brian stated that he did not have the funds to provide beyond that amount for his children.) With the aid of the states attorney motions for the modification of child support were filed. It was ordered in the divorce decree that brian litteral pay for insurance for his children. He never once paid or covered his children under insurance from at least 2001 to 2008. Nor did he pay for doctors visits, physicals, emergency room visits, or braces for either of his two children.
After several years (2005 - 2008) of litigation and a long trial in the Cook County Court system brian litteral represented to the court that he applied to some FIVE THOUSAND positons and was unable to secure a job (one would presume that he would take any position to earn money to take care of his children BUT NO!!! HE DID NOT!!!)
Rather, brian litteral hid behind the despicable Mrs. Allison and her money so as to not have to provide a fair and decent amount for support of his children.
brian litteral was born 4/11/1963 in Waverly Iowa. brian litteral is a DEAD BEAT DAD!!! And he was not married to Mrs. Allison...in March of 2009 per his testimony in the trial for modification of child support.
YOU MAY AQUIRE ALL PAPERWORK AND DOCUMENTATION YOU MAY NEED TO FIND OUT HOW brian litteral was able to get Judge Eileen Mary Brewer to rule his obligation of child support as $544.00 per month for TWO CHILDREN. THE TRANSCRIPTS FOR THE HEARING FOR MODIFICATION OF CHILD SUPPORT WILL BE FAXED TO YOU IF YOU NEED A COPY.(I reserve the right to whom I choose to fax this information.)
You may find ALL THE INFORMATION YOU NEED ON HOW BRIAN WAS ABLE TO SQUIRM OUT OF BEING A RESPONSIBLE FATHER AT THE DALEY CENTER ON THE 8TH FLOOR AND THE CASE NUMBER IS 00D7531.
I will share more details with you if you need. Just post the question and I will share.
Thank you.

Daily Horoscope for January 1

Cancer

Happy New Year, Cancer! Are you ready to put those resolutions into place? Not quite?! Crustaceans are never quite sure just how much they can get away with and where to draw the line. You have a flair for the dramatic and when you're the narrator, your exploits become deeds that would make a knight proud. Your fans know you're a hero, whatever history might prove. Audacity impresses most people but if you go to far you could cause offence.
