And why should Jackson have a crew of payrollers       around to fix water mains?

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.

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        mdwfp.com/parks-destinations/state=parks/l       fluers-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.        > ...        Kobe Bryant's body,8 others recovered from helicopter that lacked key terrain       warning system. clarionledger.com/story/news/nation/2020/01/2       /kobe-bryants-ex-pilot-sikorsky.       copter-cadillac-yet-crashed/4600700002 ...Maybe something like,        sandelavilon.com/st3400h-helitaws-terrain-awareness-warning-system or,        duckduckgo.com Terrain Awarness And Warning System for Helicopters        >        > 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.        >        > ,,,'' Don McNeil's old breakfast club that used to be in Chicago's very own,       I used to listen to it back in 40s/50s.
