Coaches and crooks
OK follow me on this one – Illinois is to politics what Miami University is to college football coaches. Miami is/was know as the cradle of coaches including Earl Blaik, Paul Brown, Woody Hayes, Bill Arnsparger, George Little, Weeb Ewbank, Sid Gillman, Ara Parseghian, Bo Schembechler, John Pont, Carmen Cozza, Bill Mallory, Jim Tressel, Joe Novak, Ron Zook, Dick Crum, Paul Dietzel, William Narduzzi, Randy Walker, John Harbaugh, Gary Moeller, Larry Smith, Dick Tomey, Sean Payton and Terry Hoeppner.
So that would make Illinois in general and Chicago in particular the cradle dirt bag politicians – Levi Boone, Daley(s), Rezko, Jackson(s), Ayres, Wright, Gov’s Otto Kerner, George Ryan, Dan Walker, William Stratton all are or have done time in the big house and now Rod Blagojevich.
Warming?
In another sure sign of global warming, it snowed in Huston yesterday.
Bailout
The geniuses that gave us AmTrak, the US Postal Service and the IRS are about to go into the car business. This will ensure that cars of the future will have all the style of a shoebox, not enough power to pull the hat off your head but will be considered green until confronted with the problem of re-charging and disposing of the batteries at which point the government dolts will find out that they have created an environmental mess. Every car dealership in the country will be staffed by a thousand disgruntled union employees and you’ll still be ignored at length before being treated like crap.

I have offically requested a meeting before congress to discuss a rescue package for Feather Your Nest. We do not need it but I want to make sure I have place in the growing line. I saw mother-in-law Annie making a sign and nailing it to a length of 2x2 pine. I think she is preparing to picket FYN to ask banks to guarantee her FYN retirement. Although she no FYN retirement guarantee I think she just wants to get in line as well. Ten years ago we may have recieved two pounds of cheese but we are crossing our fingers to get $2 billion in an FYN bailout. I will let you know when we go to Monico for a two week FYN corporate meeting. Of course we will fly the corporate jet to Ft Wayne to get you as well.
Griffin the Hopeful.
