DISH TV is the Perfect Match for Amboy

If you feel everyone knows your business in Amboy now, imagine living here when Charles Dickens's brother Augustus did. The drama was so thick that even Chicago was talking about it—a lot.

If rumors are true, Augustus drummed up a good amount of drama in Amboy on his own—mostly with his alleged love for the drink. But the stories got bigger and traveled faster when he passed in 1866. When the news reached Chicago that the famous author Charles Dickens wouldn't be coming west on his US tour, many Chicagoans felt slighted. There were flame wars in the newspapers and certainly in parlors throughout the area. The stories had slight differences, and some were more forgiving than others, but the most common accusation was that Charles avoided Chicago so he wouldn't have to financially support his brother's partner and children after Augustus passed.

Hindsight revealed evidence that Augustus's partner, Bertha, might have been doing okay with an inheritance of her own. Plus, Charles Dickens wasn't in good health during his visit, and that may have been why he didn't make the trip out. It's still hard to know exactly what went down.

Life in Amboy is simpler now. Everyone has troubles sometimes, and yeah, everybody else usually finds out. But people here also pull together and help each other. Tourists know Amboy for the campgrounds and the depot museum, and some of them might even know about the subs from Casey's. But you know Amboy for the support you can count on from your neighbors.

That said, drama can still be fun—at a distance. With DISH TV, get drama in healthier doses by watching shows such as Better Call Saul, Jane the Virgin, and The Good Doctor. You can enjoy all sides of the story and practice empathizing so you can help out your neighbor the next time they need it—and ask when your turn comes around.
