Chicago duo Valebol is dreamy ‘breeze pop’
To anyone who doesn’t believe it’s $800k lemme break it down for you $2k for the post and wires,$3k labor, $5 for the bulb and 794,995 for the governments pocket There you go
It seems like you can charge what you want.When the text payer has to pay for it
In the meantime you could install a median where pedestrians can stand. As a sort of island in the middle of a road.
It doesn't cost that much. Government uselessness and waste make it cost that much. You could probably buy the light and pay to have it installed for less than 25k.
Zebra crossing?
I had to do a double take.
I bet $700k is to the pad pockets.
We’re on a mission from GOD…
That’s ridiculous and this is why our country is failing GREED
Perfect example of the government paying 10 times more than what the job should really cost. And that's why our taxes are so high and we're getting ripped off
800k for a traffic signal? 😂 nice so maybe like 10k-20k with labor so where does the other 780k go?
Don’t believe the lies that the county or government is telling you it cost about $300 to install traffic light for the light itself now for all the other installations. It might cost up to about 2500 but not no hundred thousand.
What I've noticed is a lot of cities I putting in roundabouts
You can either do a roundabout or pedestrian overpass.
Cost and price are 2 different things it doesn’t cost 800k the price of installing is 800k
good point, so what is your point lol
My point is that the unbelievable price of 800k is nothing near what the value/cost of labour and products required is, 800k is what the super inflated council contracts say it will cost the city
Seems like a scam to charge 800 k for a lantern that switches lights..someone fills his pockets with taxmoney
that’s how it all works. you wouldn’t believe what my township claims a speed bump costs
Maybe try one of those plastic roundabouts they're experimenting with?
$800k for something I could do for $20k max?
"Fapp Circle" 😂😂😂
Yes. Thank you. Lol 😅
Who are these chubby chucklers?
he should have read her whole story.. lame paraphrase.
In the 1970s I grew up in another part of the Northside Humboldt Park.Uptown kind of looks like rundown stink area.I have never been to Uptown back then.never saw it at that time.
Different times..my ex was in the grain pit, made alot of money, but like many traders..lost alot, too.
The desert liminal musicians were spectacular!
Interesting.
I remember as a kid, riding my bike threw Beverly in the late 70's, being chased out of the neighborhood.
am I just gay or is there chemistry?
I remember those Levies commercials well, during my teen years back in the 1970's. my dad had his album "word jazz" , and he would put it on once in a while. Ken Had such a marvelous and distinctive voice! 😀
He had a really strong powerful voice. I'm not sure why he never looked into voice acting for video games. He sound like he can be a powerful villain 💕
Bureaucracy at its best! Less government is the answer.
The study spoke of relaxers bought in the store, not the professional ones…. Better quality
Made me deep cry.
Why is that lady looking 👀 at the young lady like that as she’s telling her story
she went to the wrong Doctor. her Lady parts shouldn't have been removed

Noooooooooooo
I've lived in Chicago burbs and Chicago proper and can tell you the only thing that would make me feel safe biking in Chicago proper would be dedicated bike paths with barriers. Not those pool noodle pvc sticks but actual concrete or metal barriers that segregate me from the distracted dipshits that swerve into the bike lane to avoid a pothole
Will it stop bullets slower in Chicago??
Yeah speed limits are the big issue in Chicago 😂 but still a great idea 25 is really good enough for city streets heck
Did anyone force those suing to use the relaxers. Also there is a warning on the relaxer box, isn't it
Good to see after all these years people are still watching this and keeping the art going.
Your body Your Choice.
Scary shouldn’t the hairdressers know better not to do a relaxer on someone that just dyed their hair ???
I remember going to the movies to see this. I’ve been a fan of SNL since the beginning
Iconic movie
I am not bored at all. The irony! Love this.
Great song, Great Voice, Great artist. what a singer, a person who brought back jazz, and Im head over heels!! just fantastic ❤
te amo laufey
