See you at the polls.
When we began the For Kids' Sake campaign, our goal was to promote positive communication between kids and adults through special programs, news stories, and charitable events.
The response has been tremendous. Chicago again has proven that it not only has big shoulders, but a big heart as well.
Thank you Chicago, and True Value, our corporate partner, for your support.
This year, we look forward to making an even bigger investment in Chicago's best hope for the future. It's kids.

Hurry, Phillips. They're waiting for your report.
Poor Phillips. She took a cold medicine for a stuffy nose, and now she's getting drowsy. If only she could go back and take Sudafed instead.
You see, fast-acting Sudafed starts to work in as quick as 22 minutes, without drowsiness. So you don't get drowsy. You get relief.
Hurry, Phillips. They're waiting for your report.
Let's go.
Sudafed. For fast relief without drowsiness.
You're looking at one Advil. In just one Advil tablet, there's the effectiveness of two regular aspirin or two regular-strength Tylenol.
But when you really hurt and need more relief, you can just imagine how effective two Advil can be.
Yet for all its effectiveness, Advil is still gentler to your stomach than aspirin. Before, there was only aspirin or Tylenol. But today, there's Advil.
Advil. Tablets and tablets. Advanced medicine for pain.

Morning, sir. That was some New Year's party you threw.
Gerald, the sale price on this wash is much too low.
Don't you remember the New Year's party?
You said, thanks to you, Holland's New Year sale would go down in history.
So I lowered the price on this washer?
Actually, sir, you lowered the prices of all these appliances.
Oh, no.
And the stereos and those tape recorders and those receivers.
Good morning, Bob.
Who are they?
Don't you remember? You hired them at the party.
Why didn't Mr. Ewing stop me?
He tried. You fired him.
What else did I do?
Well, you knocked down the price on a sharp 13-inch portable color TV with remote control to just $249.
And you put this JVC digital receiver with remote control on sale for just $218.
What have I done?
Don't worry, sir, it's only for a few days. Besides, everyone's probably too wiped out from New Year's to come.
You really think so?
Sure.
The Highland Superstore's New Year's sale, Monday through Wednesday, January 4th.
Test.
A little higher.
My head really hurts. I don't care what anyone says about pain relievers.
The only thing that really counts is, will it work for me?
Advil does. Just one Advil is as effective as two regular aspirin.
So one's usually enough.
But when my head's really pounding, two Advil make quick work of the pain.
Advil, it's what works for me.
Before there was only aspirin or Tylenol. But today there's Advil. Advil, advanced medicine for pain.
Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to demonstrate the difference between WXRT and other rock stations.
You see, WXRT plays a tremendous variety of rock, so their records stay fresh, shiny, new.
But just look what playing the same song over and over again has done to this other station's record.
To think this was once Stairway to Heaven.
