Jethro Hynes just decided he wants to be a brain surgeon. No, wait, a stock car race driver. No, wait, Governor! That’s it, I want to be the Governor.

It’s looks like a reaction from a matinee horror movie on WGN. Is Godzilla loose in the Capitol?

You see, you need to get them to pay into the funeral fund BEFORE they die… I tried it the other way first, and after three years of that, I can tell you, it just doesn’t work as well, trust me.

Comment by I. Raymon Thursday, Jul 9, 09 @ 2:08 pm
“Could I interest you in a pre-need funeral plan?”

Comptroller Dan Hynes reacts to staff reports that Governor Pat Quinn is holding another press conference.

After the press conference he was overheard asking his senior campaign staff this question; “It can’t really be this easy can it?”

Comment by Jaded Thursday, Jul 9, 09 @ 2:32 pm
If this is what the inside of a jail cell looks like, I may rethink this idea of being Governor.

Comment by Blogger2 Thursday, Jul 9, 09 @ 2:38 pm
What?!?! Pat Quinn is going to sign the capital bill!?!?!?!

“This is an exciting day! I had some black pepper on my soft boiled egg today, and dog-gone it, if I didn’t put some of that artificial sweetner in that hot cup of joe this morning! You know, the pink stuff, not the blue - so I’m kinda buzzed with all that caffeine and Sweet’n Low….and I’m all giddy and it could be the instant oatmeal flavor I selected this morning…it was crazy brown sugar and cinnamon…I don’t normally take my oats with so much flavor, but I just couldn’t help myself…am I talking too much? Oh crazy me! I’m just feeling alive!”

Dan Hynes: Boring Like a Fox!

Comment by MrJM Thursday, Jul 9, 09 @ 3:29 pm
It’s a beautiful day in this neighborhood,
A beautiful day for a neighbor.
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?…

It’s a neighborly day in this beauty wood,
A neighborly day for a beauty.
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?…

I’ve always wanted to have a neighbor just like you.
I’ve always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you.

So, let’s make the most of this beautiful day.
Since we’re together we might as well say:
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?
Won’t you be my neighbor?
Won’t you please,
Won’t you please?
Please won’t you be my neighbor?

I am just horrified that my cemetery auditors never caught Chicago Burr Oak Cemetery over the last 4 years disintering and piling up hundreds of bodies for profit!!

Comment by anon Friday, Jul 10, 09 @ 12:05 am
Hynd: She did? Honest? You mean that I can finally try raising some campaign cash! Gee, what should I be? A cowboy or maybe a fireman? Barack is already President so I can’t be that. Hmmmm? Governor sounds like it could be fun. Do you think that Lisa will change her mind again?
