Q the Eye/08.27.11

Dear LakeCountyEye,

Where is the LakeCountyEye compound? I say it's somewhere up with the horse farms. A friend says it doesn't exist. A pair of box-seat Fielders tickets are riding on your answer.

Dear Snoop Dogg,

Heavily guarded compounds must be the hot topic of the week. There are some eerie similarities being revealed between the LakeCountyEye compound and Colonel Gadhafi's Tripoli compound. For instance did you know that the LakeCountyEye compound also has a secret tunnel network, extending from Waukegan to Chicago to Springfield and parts beyond? And the LakeCountyEye compound is also the site of one of Lake County's largest scrapbook shrines to Condoleezza Rice?

But to answer the question, your LakeCountyEye's witness protection program case officer strongly frowns upon the divulging of such information. Suffice it to say the compound does indeed exist. Hopefully that admission is good enough at least for an autographed photo of Kenneth Kevin Costner.

Your LakeCountyEye is authorized to share some interior photos of the compound:

The above is the summer breakfast nook. Discerning operatives will immediately recognize a mahogany fauteuil dining set w/matching endtable, folding portafinestra french doors, and a 20'x 30' anatolian carpet.

Discerning operatives may also recognize Lake County Clerk Willard Helander. Your LakeCountyEye graciously loaned the space to Helander, a few weeks back, to shoot her QVC guest-host segment.

The entire video can be reviewed on the YouTube:

Late-Night-TV-aholics may want to also keep an eye peeled for more video of your LakeCountyEye's compound on an upcoming episode of Hoarders.
