  25. They told Gov. Quinn, the ‘upside down “e” ‘… makes the ‘hard a’ sound.

    If you turn it upside down, it says …”Let the Press Tour the Prisons” … its subtle, but you can read it.

    Lt. Governor Shelia Simon got the matching oven mitt.

    The governor was more excited that they remembered there are 2 “n”s, that upset about the “upside down e” …

    “Governor, the ‘upside down e’ is a symbol of strength and charm.”
