I love …
… Checker Cab No. 3582, who remembered where he had picked me up and returned my wallet intact after I inadvertently left it in his taxi the day before Christmas. Except for my grateful thanks, he declined any further gratuities.

… when our calico cat, Cali, tries to communicate, expecting that we can pull out a Berlitz “Cat-to-English” manual and fully understand her.
— Paul Lockwood, Woodstock
… eating my mother’s homemade pork chops the “Peter Brady way” with Jim Mullen’s Apple Sauce.
— Walter Brzeski, Chicago
I hate …
… drivers who do not turn on their headlights when it is raining, snowing or just dreary. That’s why they have lights!
— Arline Greene, Glenview
… when politicians feel they have to smear their opponents to get noticed by voters and the press.
— Paul Lockwood, Woodstock
… being charged for a cup of ice.
— Christine Walker, Winnetka
… that it is now necessary to peel a sticker off of every piece of fruit I buy in the grocery store. I remember a pleasant life before fruit stickers.
— Ricky Cooper, Glencoe
