* Haven’t posted an Oscar pic in a while…

Keep it Illinois-centric, please. Leave the national stuff to other venues. And be nice to each other.

  1. Bet Oscar’s haircut is better than Rich’s.

  2. Thank You, Rich. Many of us have missed Oscar.

  3. “Bet Oscar’s haircut is better than Rich’s.”

    Do they still go to the same groomer?

  4. He is a happy boy, playful too.

    Great picture.

  5. Do Oscar and Rich use the same groomer?

    Comment by ughhh Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 11:43 am

  6. Possible QOTD: “who’s a good boy — Oscar or Rich?”

  9. so cute Oscar!!! Does anyone know if Rauner appealed the decision of the IL appellate court to reinstate step increases for state employees??? Rich, I have not seen or maybe missed threads about this topic.

  10. After putting up with Illinois politics all day, that’s the kind of face you want to come home to.

  11. It’s like Oscar is keeping “watch” and if this Post goes off the rails… look out… he might “love you” to death.

    Comment by Oswego Willy Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 12:00 pm

  12. Tax haven tax haven tax haven tax haven

    Berrios Berrios Berrios Berrios

    The past 2 weeks could have been dominated by stories that hurt JB if Rauner didnt have the brilliant idea to say he wasnt in charge (then double down on it). His Madigan paranoia got the best of him.

  13. I got a question, what are some places to eat that are worth driving out of Springfield for?

    Comment by Foodie Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 12:16 pm

  14. Oscar for Governor!

    Comment by JoanP Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 12:33 pm

  15. Who filed to replace Jeanne Ives in the House?

    Is Rahm really going to run for re-election in 2019? If so, who will the progressives run against him now that Chuy Garcia seems to be out?

    Comment by Ravenswood Right Winger Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 12:34 pm

  16. Did anyone see Rahm on the Colbert show yesterday night? Any thoughts?

    Comment by Say What? Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 12:38 pm

  17. ===And be nice to each other.===

    Fun hater. That’s probably why there are so few comments on this post.

    Comment by 47th Ward Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 12:45 pm

  18. I think we found out who is in charge of Illinois.

    Comment by AC Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 12:58 pm

  19. Odds on Rauner vetoing any back pay measure approved by the GA? I’m going with 95% only because he may waffle for awhile and forget the actual process again.

    Comment by Fixer Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 12:59 pm

  20. Anyone else think The Rich Miller’s hair ought to look better for how long it takes him to get a cut, curl, style and set?

    Comment by A guy Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 1:03 pm

  21. Foodie,

    If you’re up for a drive, Paulie’s BBQ in Arthur is one of the best there is. The only drawbacks, no beer and closed on Sundays.

    Comment by Gruntled University Employee Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 1:07 pm

  22. Thanks for the Oscar pic! Feel free to post more. Anytime.

    Did he go to a new groomer? That looks like a summer haircut.

    Comment by cailleach Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 1:23 pm

  23. oh he is just precious. Illinois’ First Dog!

    Comment by Amalia Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 1:33 pm

  24. Whata beautiful dog!

  26. He is soooo cute.

  27. Fully expecting Oscar to make debut at City Club. Creates some chance the event will be interesting

    Comment by Annonin' Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 1:51 pm

  30. I agree Oscar’s cut looks fine for summer. Brrrrr. Isn’t it time for the fluffy look?

    Comment by Groundhog Day Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 2:17 pm

  31. Radical Candor hasn’t posted to its Twitter page in 8 days. Did he/she get a new job perhaps??

    Comment by L.A. Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 2:18 pm

  32. ===I agree Oscar’s cut looks fine for summer===

    Sigh.

    Petsmart totally messed up his last haircut. Shaved off his beard (oh, it was bad) and shaved the rest of him. Poor little guy hasn’t looked like himself for two months. That’s why I haven’t posted any pics.

    Comment by Rich Miller Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 2:23 pm

  33. Dude, that’s some really heavy pet vanity. Hope Oscar didn’t see you post this.

    Comment by A guy Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 2:59 pm

  34. I think Oscar looks very handsome!

    Comment by Governin' Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 4:07 pm

  35. Stella? do I see cute pix of another dog? no. it’s Oscar.

    Comment by Amalia Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 4:20 pm

  36. A Guy - don’t you prefer it when your kids/pets look good, especially in pics? It’s only human to want your loved ones to shine. Don’tcha think? ;-)

    Comment by cailleach Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 4:56 pm

  37. Rich, Louis the Wonder Dog has a great groomer if you want to try somewhere else.

    Also reminds me that ol’ AA needs the pre-holiday trim.

    Comment by Arthur Andersen Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 6:04 pm

  38. Oscar is not his haircut. He is adorable,period…

    Comment by cc Tuesday, Dec 12, 17 @ 6:08 pm

  39. Baby its cold outside.

    Will someone please tell my dad to stop shaving my hair off when its freezing outside?
