   I noticed water coming up from cracks in the street in the morning.  They   
   called a contractor and had the repair done by 5PM, same day.  As far as I   
   know, we didn't even lose    
   water pressure.  Very efficient!

   probably approaching 100 years of age.  Still, when things need to be fixed,   
   they get fixed.  I suppose that's the upside for paying nearly the highest   
   property taxes in the US.   
      
   Chicago dates back to 1830, Jackson dates back to 1821, named for Andrew   
   Jackson.Before it was Jackson, it was named Le Fluer's Bluff

   Jackson PD has divers and police boats, sometimes they have to look for   
   whatever in resevoirs,(Jackson's big Ross Barnett resevoir supplies Jackson's   
   water, there are a few    
   wells too) lakes, ponds, rivers. But, that has nothing to do with the City of   
   Jackson Water Department. Maybe there are certain legal/insurance reasons. I   
   garantee you Chicagp's very own has search and rescue people with boats and   
   divers too.

   BUTTTTTT,    jimstone.is    said that is not Kobe Bryant's helicopter that   
   crashed. Helicopters/cars/trucks/many boats/boat motors/motor vehicles, even   
   mopeds and bicycles have Identifying numbers/letters/nomenclature on them.   
   Very simple to find out if    
   that really is Kobe Bryant's Helicopter, or not.                Stupid   
   so-called 'pilot', in my opinion. Suppose to do pre-flight checks to see if   
   everything is working OK, before flying. I do believe all Aircraft at least   
   have Altimeters, you can even    
   buy wristwatches that have an Altimer. Mountain climbers wear them all the   
   time.If I was a 'flyboy' or a mountain climber, I would wear one
