QA: ADD, rants and pearls. Tuesday, July 6, 2010. I blog therefore I am. In the past, when I blogged I focused on something specific, like Proviso Township. Of course, I had the discretion to discuss other matters because they were interesting to me. But I tried to keep faith with my readers who came to read about the topic of the blog.
