IlliniGuys Sports Spectacular (Weekend of March 1, 2025) Heartland Newsfeed
Catfish At a restaurant the other night, I overheard somebody ask his dinner companion, "How do you make a catfish?" I offered a reply. The answer, of course, is, “Give him a rod and reel.” But this man wanted to know how to extract bones from the critter. I've got no idea. But I did research the beast, and will now reveal more than you wanted to know about the seafood with whiskers. Catfish live in fresh water. Most catfish […]
Question: Dear Steve, Getting calls from PNC Bank every day. I am a member with you. Have you contacted PNC Bank to tell them we are with you now? I have quit answering my phone because I get so many calls. I am really tired of it. Charles and Bonnie Answer: Dear Charles and Bonnie, I have no clue what you are talking about. I don’t have clients or any sort of membership associated with the GetOutOfDebt.org website or myself. […]
England's best city within two hours of London is beautiful, historic Bath. The city is popular and expensive, but it's a joy to visit. And rather than deal with London's intensity right off the bat, I like to take the train from the airport to London's Paddington Station and then hop on a connection to this more relaxed and elegant example of urban England. Bath was a joy even in ancient Roman times, when patricians soaked in the city's mineral […]
(Heartland Newsfeed) -- The lame duck session of the Illinois General Assembly got incredibly ugly Wednesday during discussion regarding overriding a bill veto. A bill which would increase the cap on tort lawsuit payouts from its current $100,000 to a cap of $2 million was placed under an amendatory veto by outgoing Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner. During debate in the veto override, in which legitimate financial concerns were made by Rep. Peter Breen (R-Lombard) were later mocked by Rep. Stephanie […]
Last week I wrote about some of the new and different ways airlines are collecting fees, rendering many base fare comparisons moot. Well, as it turns out, a similar phenomenon has also been affecting a different part of the travel sector for years. I speak, of course, of the hotel industry. Just as looking on third-party travels sites for flights can sometimes cause you to overlook the true cost, there are a few semi-hidden hotel fees that also increase the […]

Reading I'd like to salute one of America's greatest unsung heroes. His name was Sterl Artley, a famous reading teacher, who died in 1968. He wrote wonderful stories about Dick and Jane. If you're a Baby Boomer, or a Generation Xer, you may remember them. These kids had a dog named Spot, and a cat named Puff. Mr. Artley's simple stories began with basic words, gradually building children's vocabulary and word recognition skills. Unfortunately, it's hard to find Dick and […]
Editor Note: Due to situations in the newsroom the past couple Saturdays, we were unable to publish the column. The stories for the past two weeks and this week's installment will be published today. - JL Heroes How many heroes do you know? I've met a few. Some of those were family and friends. And a few were nationally-known. My dad Bill was a long-time newspaper editor, and interviewed several. I rarely saw him get flustered. But he met one guy […]
I've heard there are more books on self improvement than any other subject. My friend Lisa claims that’s true…and she should know. She eats right, dresses well, and talks sweeter than a candy salesman at a dental convention. She’s been to more seminars than most caterers. And she’s always looking for another body part to get fixed, tucked, or liposucked. I wish I had that much ambition. But my goal is to live a "balanced life." That means if I […]
