During a press conference in gambling, fracking and pensions, Gov. Pat Quinn talks with reporters about his favorite recipes from a Chicago breakfast eatery which he recently visited. He ended the conference by talking about how he was put on this earth to extol the virtues of fried eggs and bacons.

“Guys, I’m lost. I just hit the last page in ‘Squeezy’s Guide to the Pension Crisis’.
Pictured is Governor Pat Quinn after accidently eating a candle at breakfast Saturday. Apparently Governor Quinn mistakenly swallowed a lit candle that was on the table while peering across the street Saturday morning to take record of those attending AG Madigan’s event. Quinn, refusing to look away, not wanting to miss a thing, and bit/swallowed a large piece of the candle before his speaking engagement.

“Speaker Madigan, let me read to you some words of wisdom on solving the pension crisis in Illinois…
Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Goldilocks. She went for a walk in the forest. Pretty soon, she came upon a house. She knocked and, when no one answered, she walked right in.
At the table in the kitchen, there were three bowls of porridge. Goldilocks was hungry. She tasted the porridge from the first bowl.
“This porridge is too hot!” she exclaimed.
So, she tasted the porridge from the second bowl.
‘This porridge is too cold,’ she said
So, she tasted the last bowl of porridge.
‘Ahhh, this porridge is just right,’ she said happily and she ate it all up.”
“…and I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know My name is the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon thee.”
I could not, would not, on a boat.
I will not, will not, with a goat.
I will not eat them in the rain.
I will not eat them on a train.
Not in the dark! Not in a tree!
Not in a car! You let me be!
I do not like them in a box.
I do not like them with a fox.
I will not eat them in a house.
I do not like them with a mouse.
I do not like them here or there.
I do not like them ANYWHERE!
“So, that’s the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. SB1 is just too hard, SB2404 is just too soft. So we have this Conference Committee that makes it just right.”
“The accusations of voter fraud as charged by Mr. Keats and Sen. Brady are not true. Right here in this book are the names of good, law abiding Illinoisans who said they would vote for me just before they died.”
“It says right here in “Poor Rich’s Almanac of Poor Illinois Politics” that based on the position of the Father and of the Daughter, I am to plant my contributions where the sun don’t hide.”
It’s easy to grin when your ship has come in and you’ve got the stock market beat. But the man worthwhile is the man who can smile when his shorts are too tight in the seat.
“What??
What bill on drilling in a National forest?
I did not!
Nobody said anything about that. They said sign the frackin bill so I signed the frackin bill.”
“I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It’s when you know you’re licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what.
- Atticus Finch”
“Atticus said to Jem one day, “I’d rather you shot at tin cans in the backyard, but I know you’ll go after birds. Shoot all the blue jays you want, if you can hit ‘em, but remember it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.” That was the only time I ever heard Atticus say it was a sin to do something, and I asked Miss Maudie about it. “Your father’s right,” she said. “Mockingbirds don’t do one thing except make music for us to enjoy. They don’t eat up people’s gardens, don’t nest in corn cribs, they don’t do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That’s why it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.”
“And that’s the lesson of Abraham Lincoln, that we have to work together for the people and it’s something we need to realize today in Illinois which is named after Lincoln as the Land of Lincoln because Lincoln knew that we have to be united, not divided, and always keep working for solutions for people in Illinois who live in the Land of Lincoln and believe that the will of the people should be the law of the land. And also Lincoln.”

After reading it again, I’m even more convinced that I can veto a conference committee report.
As it says right here in this State of Illinois Instruction Manual, which by the way Rod told me was lost but I found it under three sealed letters in the top desk drawer of the second floor office, right here, on page 56, in bold letters, and I quote “It is the governor’s job to sign bills approved by the General Assembly.” I keep telling Mike and John this but they don’t seem to be listening. Maybe I should go read those three letters and see if they have any advice that could help.
Once upon a time I was a Gadfly who no one took seriously. Now I am the Governor of the great State of Illinois and still no one takes me seriously!!!!!

Hey you guys, it really does say in the Illinois Constitution…SECTI
Membership in any pension or retirement system of the
State, any unit of local government or school district, or
any agency or instrumentality thereof, shall be an
enforceable contractual relationship, the benefits of which
shall not be diminished or impaired.
- RetiredStateEmployee - Tuesday, Jun 18, 13 @ 3:42 pm:
Quinn finally found his copy of the constitution that he had in high school. He didn’t read it then either.
- The End Is Near - Tuesday, Jun 18, 13 @ 3:45 pm:
“‘And when He had opened the Fourth Seal, I heard the voice of the Fourth Beast say, Come.’
That’s enough for now. Listen, all I’m saying to the people of Illinois is . . . “
“So one more downgrade and it is junk bond status?”
(Looking up in his definition book) Junk bonds are risky investments, but have speculative appeal because they offer much higher yields than safer bonds. States that issue junk bonds typically have less-than-stellar credit ratings, and investors demand these higher yields as compensation for the risk of investing in them.
Governor Quinn addresses the Special Legislative Pension Committee, by reading an excerpt from his book; “Fifty Shades of Quinn.”
“I want you sore, baby,” he murmurs, and he continues his sweet, leisurely torment, backward, forward. “Every time you move tomorrow, I want you to be reminded that I’ve been here. Only me. You are mine.”
