Illinois Has It Bad

Stewart. Colbert. SNL. CNN. All of them are getting in their digs at Mr. Blago, who still plans to fight on. And here we Illinoisans stand with a president-elect and a winning football team on the brink of the playoffs. We should be celebrating! But that's exactly it: we're having SUCCESS! We're the ones with the president and the empty golden senate seat! We're the ones with the clout and the valuables! And the booming liquor industry in the midst of an economic collapse (no surprise there)! And no one likes the Heartland to have success, especially special prosecutors.

I mean, when you have a good thing in bad times, even if it's an illegal and immoral thing, can you blame a person or institution for abuse of power? Really?

Also, dimming the lights for a moment: I'm watching the Illinois Supreme Court proceedings for you, baby.

Never Be Stuck in the Rain Again

Disappointed with how long it takes to figure out what that big blotchy gray thing with blue dotted lines falling out of it means? You're in luck!

Look, Ma, No Torso!

I'm not much for advertising for corporations, but some just do require it. Check the links page.

My List of Life Goals

This Weezer video illustrates three points about fame:

1. You know you've made it in life when you perform with Muppets.
2. You know you've made it in life when you are publicly hit on by Miss Piggy.
3. You know you've made it in comedy when you hide as a lamp with a shade over your head.

(Found at Cute Overload in this post's comments section. Thanks, Mary.)
