Those Who Don’t Want to Bring Attention to McHenry County Oppose Dick Tracy for County Seal

That Heck of a Guy Crystal Lake blogger Allan Showalter surely has sharp eyes.

So much negative advertising.

I still can’t figure out how he can find these signs in McHenry County and I can’t.

Now, he has found one opposing Dick Tracy for McHenry County Seal because it would bring TOO MUCH ATTENTION to McHenry County.

And I thought the county board wanted to bring attention to McHenry County.

To help tourism, for instance.

Come to think of it, though, there were lots of folks in the courthouse who were not too happy when the Chicago Crime Commission was rooting around.

That reminds me.

If anyone would like to pass on tips of wrong-doing in the courthouse, a local school district, a city, village, township, fire protection district, you name it, here’s how to get in touch with the Chicago Crime Commission:

Those who would like to drop a dime on crime may do so by contacting the commission by calling 312-372-0101. There is also a way to communicate by email on the web site.
