The Cardinal

Hey Paul B, I am a parent of a teenager. I would rather not give my name because it might hurt other families who have suffered losses. My daughter went to school with a wonderful girl for six years. She had been at my house often, been part of a car pool, and even baby-sat […]

Dear Paul B, People really don’t think too much of aging drivers. They don’t realize what we’re all about, not to mention the lack of respect we receive in general anyway. Our reflexes are diminished, our ability to react to drivers who honk, and are in a big hurry, and consider us as clogging up […]

Dear Paul B Fans, When do you see these two words together….Wonderful Cops? You probably don’t see it nearly enough, if at all. I am as fair-handed as anyone that I know, and I call it exactly the way I see it…Let me fill you in on the motive and inspiration of this story… I […]

Dear Paul B, I am now 40, single (for the first time EVER,) and feel lost, (for the first time EVER.) I used to be confident, clever, carefree…and complete. Now that I am a single woman, I feel as though I have no value, no self-worth and invisible. When I walk down the street, I […]

Wow. I am so floored by the recent media talk, and actions now approved for this conflict in Syria. It is horrible, no doubt, that there are thousands losing their lives in this war-torn country. Assad, a terrorist/despot/war-monger/president, is hell bent on maintaining his grip over his position as Syria’s “leader” I am not so […]

Dear Paul B, I have been dating a man for ten months. He is quite the gentleman, and seems very cordial to my friends, and my family. But, when we go out, he is enormously short and rude to car hops, clerks at retail stores, and even worse with blue collar workers. I felt uncomfortable […]

Dear Paul B, I am an original Arlington Heights resident, and I love reading all the different Cardinal pages..especially the weather and Crime-BLog. I just discovered you a few months ago, and I think you’re really direct — in a good way. I read a story about a young couple that might have issues because […]

Dear Paul B, I know that you have told us about your relationship with a cosmetic surgery nut. My new gf is in love with this stuff… She is a beautiful girl, and I like that. She has had four surgeries and says she’s done. She looks awesome, what’s wrong with looking beautiful. I think […]

American women, who trail men when it comes to making money, leading companies and accumulating wealth, are closing the gap on at least one measure: cheating on their spouses (Over the last two decades: 40 percent increase of wives answering they’ve cheated. Scarlet Fu reports on Bloomberg Television’s “Market Makers.” Dear Paul B, I am […]

Dear Paul B, Today’s world is so much different than the one that I am familiar with. I am 60, a baby-boomer, and Dad of four who spends way too much time with teens and fifty year old’s who “think they are teens.” I learn very little about life from these two segments, but had […]

Dear Paul B Readers, Last night, after whooping it up with a friend and countless high fives and several unmentionable expletives, I just had to share my enthusiasm with Chicago’s fans as well. I considered leaving my 15 year old home alone, but decided to ask him to join me. We both ended up on […]
