No Jamie, this is not about you.
We’re in the home stretch for getting Marylou here. Beds are in place, 2 new hospital bed. Tickets bought, American Airlines. Wheelchair ordered from Medicaid. Large quantities of alcohol ordered, wine for Nina and Knob Creek for me. Putting up shelves in their room today.
Poker game scheduled for Thursday. Always a good time, but I may have to punch our host a bit. He’s starting to get lippy in his emails about my lack of attendance lately.
Anyone give a shit about the inauguration of the chief idiot? I didn’t think so. I’m getting tired of hear about it on the news. I’m amazed at how people are fooled by this clown, but then it’s not about the country anymore, they’re selling the man.
Got this from my mom:
Wow, is Illinois and Chicago great or what?
Perhaps the U.S. should pull out of Chicago?

Of course, they’re all blaming each other.
Can’t blame Republicans; there aren’t any !
Chicago school system rated one of the worst in the country.
Can’t blame Republicans; there aren’t any !
State pension fund $78 Billion in debt, worst in country.
Can’t blame Republicans; there aren’t any !
Cook County ( Chicago ) sales tax 10.25% highest in country.
Can’t blame Republicans; there aren’t any !
This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois.
And he is going to ‘fix’ Washington politics for us???
George Ryan is no longer Governor, he is in the big house.
Of course he was replaced by Rob Blajegovitch who is … that’s
right, also in the big house. And Representative Jesse Jackson Jr.
resigned a couple of weeks ago. That is because he is fighting
being sent to … that’s right, the big house.
Every one knows what the “Big House” is right, it has lots of bars,
guards, and a tall fence with barbed wire at the top, sound familiar
The Land of Lincoln, where our governors make our license plates.
But you know what? As long as they keep providing entitlements to the population of Chicago, nothing is going to change, except the state
will go broke before the country does.
Maybe that explains a lot of our current problems.
