1. (Day calendar on wall. Days start to fall off, ominous music plays as day after day fall off, one by one. Fade to black)

2. Will the senate follow suit?

3. Can we please stop paying them until this is fixed?

4. If there’s no deal, there’s no deal. It’s not like some sort of weird productive alchemy occurs when they all get together.

5. Senate cancelled next Thursday and will only be in on Wednesday.

6. State of the State that day, Jan 27.

   Is this a consequence for what happened with AFCME today?

7. Thanks, Jordan.

8. I guess there’s nothing important going on!

9. Those with Chicago districts will be too busy scrambling for that prime office space in the JRTC that the governor is abandoning.

10. === Can we please stop paying them until this is fixed? ===

    Rauner would be tickled. He doesn’t need the money, a lot of legislators do.

11. Word is right, unless there is a deal they don’t need to be in town.

    Comment by Norseman Friday, Jan 8, 16 @ 4:04 pm

12. Agreed.

    Owls and Mushrooms are colored buttons now. The heavy lifting is with Madigan, Cullerton, and Rauner… and their Staffs… approved by their Crews

13. Isn’t this the beginning of the government shutdown Rauner wanted?

    “I may have to take a strike and shut down the government a few weeks to redo everybody’s contract,”

14. Unless there is an agreed bill, no need to attempt anything until after the primary.

    Comment by RNUG Friday, Jan 8, 16 @ 4:31 pm

15. “The House is in continuous session.” Speaker Madigan

    Right. Exactly right.
