* I had a couple of things to do this morning, so I’m kinda getting a late start on the blog. Let’s begin with some righteous music. This one’s for my grandma, who passed away a year ago…

One of the best movies ever. Coen brothers are geniuses. Topped only by Raising Arizona.

And keeping with this soundtrack, is the “Official Cap. Fax Summer Session Theme Song going to be “I’m a Man of Constant Sorrow”?

Couldn’t be a better choice.
My wife came into the room, singing the song, with tears on her cheeks. “Best song ever,” she just said.

The Governor:
“Reform? I invented reform!”
“Constichency? We ain’t got no constichency.”

One of the top ten movie soundtracks of all time!
The songs fit Illinois so well, including, “In the Jailhouse Now.”

Beautiful song. In my family we have tradition of playing a Vince Gill classic at all funerals. As a result, we can’t hear it without thinking of loved ones who have passed.
Go Rest High on that Mountain, grandma Miller.

Nice choice, Rich.
For those who enjoyed this, check out Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys.

With the budget I can only think of “Damn! We’re in a tight spot!”

Overheard during budget negotiations:
“Budget, Bruce?”
“No thank you, Mike. A half a budget would only arouse my appetite without beddin’ er’ back down.”

What this entire budget battle comes down to is who is really Bonafide.

….and who exactly is Rauner’s BRAAAAAAAIN TRUST? Couldn’t do any better than the Soggy Bottom Boys….
How do you think Madman would respond if Rauner walked into the GA and said, “I’ve made up my mind and counted to three….” regarding the tax increases and budget?
