Rod Blagojevich, the present Governor of Illinois does not understand that the position of senator in his state is not something you can fill by auctioning it off to the highest bidder for his own gain. Oddly enough he is still in place as governor after that wild scheme, and being arrested and indicted yesterday, he rose from his own bed this morning since he had been bailed out of jail and went to work.
Crazy man!
President elect Obama has asked for his resignation. Governor Blagojevich is not showing any sign of stepping aside. He has also ruined Jessie Jackson Junior chances for the position of senator due to Mr. Jackson not being aware of how he was being approached by the governor.
President elect Barack Obama has already a 67% approval rating higher than either of the last two presidents.
Jay Leno teased us with his retirement saying that Conan O’Brien was taking over the Tonight Show in 2009, actually that part is true; but uh, uh he’s not really retiring he’s just readjusting his hours for his senior years to work the hours between 10 P.M. to 11P.M. Monday through Friday; starting this fall.
The Bailout update: so far… all that first monies that were given out to the banks and AIG and the lot…well… why anyone thought that they would do what they said they would do and actually help recreate loans to help the average homeowners… nope! They are still creating Golden Umbrellas and gift packages for their CEO’s, etc.! I think that’s just plain obscene, and that’s all of our money, us taxpayers! I want them to give us recount ability!
Now what’s new with you?
Here it is mid-week, and my life is so quiet again.
I guess there is something to be said for that, at least it’s better than being sick or having some horrible situation arise, too much of that horror.
I did try and get in touch with a friend that had the flu or some other ill; I suppose she is well now since I got her machine.
Anyway, reading has been on my agenda and I just started another book earlier by the author Jeffery Deaver, and it’s a far cry from the one I just finished, a true novel; entitled The Broken Window.
Well, good night to all and to all think happy thoughts.
Speaking My Mind is about: Tobi, who is a middle aged, no, oh all right a slightly over the hill woman with all the imperfections that go with that, and this concerns her daily life's perceptions and experiences.
