I really wasn't looking for sympathy, dear. I only said it to make your day. If I gave you just one brief shining moment of bliss, it was all worth it.

You see, I don't really need sympathy. I'm doing just fine. I only want the same for you

Apropos of none of that, is your avatar a picture of a young Bill Clinton?

Da Senator??
 
Rumblings about the state GOP considering Mike Ditka as a Senate candidate... Oh, Lord.

I tink its Da Coach 233% and Obama tree percent.

If it's a Mini-Ditka, Da Coach still gets 80%...

This isn't Minnesota or California, and the race is for the Senate, not the Governor's Mansion. I think there are still enough concious people in Illinois to vote for someone who knows a little bit about national and world affairs over the king of double-cut pork chops.

And half of the crazy Ditka fans can't vote since they're from northwest Indiana.

Ain't it Just About Time?
 
For Millenium Park http://www.nytimes.com/2004/07/13/na...13park.html?th to be opening?

Spree: NYT

The site, Millennium Park, is opening four years late and at three times the original budget, but few here are complaining. The park boasts an outdoor music pavilion designed by Frank Gehry, complete with his signature swirls of shiny metal; an underground theater with 1,500 seats; elaborate gardens with 250 varieties of plants; and other attractions that include an ice skating rink and a shower room for bicyclists.

Not nearly as overdue as my Fort Dearborn Massacre National Historic Park that the east coast liberal elite won't allow Chicago to have.

I wish I was a dinosaur. When you get to be my age, you would give almost anything to have your bone fossilized.

Wow. Great swing at a hidden and unintentional softball. That door just opened on its own, and you walked through it. Brava.

The downside to your infinitely witty post is that we all have this running through our heads:

Boom boom acka-lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka-lacka boom boom
Boom boom acka-lacka lacka boom
Boom boom acka-lacka boom boom
