Anyone had contacts with a business that is better than expected? Here's your chance to help out your fellow FIBs with the 411. Just state the name of the biz, the town, and the reason.

DMV- Orland Park has a small DMV on Ravinia Drive. You can be in and out in 20-30 minutes.

Master Auto Parts- Frankfort, IL, on the corner of Rts 30, and 45. Very helpful staff. Will lend you tools if you have the knowledge, or suggest a decent mechanic if you don't.

Tiger Direct Computers- Orland Park on LaGrange. If you need something for your pc, that's the place to go. I drive 30 miles to get there. You can walk out with an entire home pc for under $300.

Veterans Assistance Commission of Will County- Joliet. 128 N. Scott St.... I cannot remember having to wait there for more than 10 minutes before being helped. I asked to get a copy of my 214, and a re-issue of my medals. I got my 214 in less than 2 weeks, and my medals(which I was told might take 3 months) in just 3 weeks.

Speaking of DMV, the one in Morris, IL, (on Rte. 47, right across the road from Wal-Mart) is great -- I've been in there several times, and I was amazed how quickly and smoothly the process was.

After endless debacles at the Chicago Heights and Midlothian DMVs, Morris was an absolute pleasure. Highly recommended. Parking was adequate.
