* Springfield’s Grab-A-Java is well known for its witty, hand-painted advertising banners, like the one of Shakespeare with the caption: “To bean or not to bean?”
Get it?
Bean?
It’s a coffee shop?
* Anyway, I saw this one the other day as I was driving downtown…
Heh.

For the “slip and sue” crowd, “sip and sue” - a hot beverage for the litigious LG coffee consumer.

Made from the Top 1% of the Top 1% of the world’s richest coffee beans, Brews Rauner is made possible through a bountiful harvest of Illinois Pension funds, outsourcing of jobs, and nursing home cutbacks.
Grab a cup today, your seat depends on it.

Brewing Bipartisanship
Comment by A. Nonymous Friday, Jan 16, 15 @ 1:33 pm
The budget blend: you’ll find out what’s in it later.
The Madigan blend: been brewing for years and nobody knew.
The vendor blend: you have to wait a month but we throw in another 1 percent.
The GOP caucus blend: give it some time, they just woke up.
