Pigeon Clean - Up

This morning, underneath the Metra tracks at Granville and Ravenswood, I noticed that the sidewalk had been powerwashed and cleared of pigeon droppings, candy wrappers and other litter. It would remain in that state if people would refrain from feeding the pesky fowls and 40th Ward Alderman, Patrick O'Connor, installed pigeon spikes like Joe Moore did in his ward, at W. Pratt, behind S & C Electric (there's narry a feather under the Metro tracks now). Moore seems to communicate more frequently with his constituents and respond to their concerns more effectively. I get more information from his office than from O'Connors', via email updates.

I guess for O'Connor, pigeon spikes is too much to ask for; we in the 40th Ward only hear from him when he's up for re-election. If only someone would oppose this useless wanker.
