    “It has been a source of great pain to me to have met with so many among [my] opponents who had not the liberality to distinguish between political and social opposition; who transferred at once to the person, the hatred they bore to his political opinions.” —Thomas Jefferson (1808)

    He said Illinois life, that means he's complaining for sure.

    I love that old lift bridge! What's with the black boat? It resembles a small pirate ship. They filming a movie up there?

    That's a replica of the Nina. I missed the Pinta. I guess the Santa Maria sank.

    @Rhamlin, What the heck are those things in the water? What are they used for?
