Saints offer advice to Chicago commuters

Personally, I try to avoid the freeways here in Chicago at any cost in the summer, especially during rush hour and on Friday and Sunday afternoons (when everyone’s heading to their cabins). Too crowded, too slow, not much fun. If I were on the roads, perhaps I’d be a beneficiary of some new messages sprouting up on a billboard on the Kennedy Expressway. As part of a book promotion (you knew there had to be commerce involved somehow, didn’t you?), the ad is offering saintly advice, like this suggestion from Joan of Arc reminding drivers to keep their cool.
