Oh. Lord. save us please...

...from NAKED HINDU POT SMOKERS!

Selling my Art, finally, I hope

Would you consider buying this piece?
It is 20" x 20" and framed in black wood.

I call it "A very red tulip".

It is from a drawing I did when I lived in Old Town,
while I was on my way to the Near North Library on Division Street.

It shows, in the nose, doesn't it?

Obama's chief of staff reflects on a year of making a difference

RAHM EMANUEL 'I can't think of anything else I would rather do'

Oh, I'm sure the Candy Man can!

Alleged Cokehead Rahm Emanuel

Former 'baletto' Rahm Emanuel seems to be aging faster than his boss.

Why is that? (WIT)

A logo...

...which I had worked long and hard on to create. And it will never be paid for!


A website for which I fronted the money.
Interestingly, Mr. Bill Morton does not seem to regard the differentiation of CHURCH AND STATE.

By recognizing James Alan Wilkowski as "Bishop" in Members of the Board, Mr. Morton has once again violated the Ethics Policy of the Chamber.

Bill Morton, so it seems, is struggling to put some sort of 'brand' on the Roger Park Chamber of Commerce. Because of whom he is, he will never get it right.

The former Chamber blog, for which I wrote, has morphed into the Chamber website. How convenient that Mr. Morton only has to click, and the same, BORING stuff shows up in both places.

The business addresses are from an Microsoft Excel file I created back in late September/early October.

What a scam, you may say.

I say the same.

And wasn't it nice of you to 'dump' Quest Network Services from my 'Followers' list. Kris Luck says HE did not do it, but as YOU, BILL, HAVE THE PASSWORDS...

It's just another day, isn't it?

Photo credit goes to Bill Morton, the Rogers Park ne'er-do-well.

From Comments at American Digest

I think that the crotchbomber incident was a turning point for Obama--he realized for the first time that bad things can happen that are out of his control.

And that even though such things are out of his control, people will rightly and inevitably blame him for these bad things.

He had not considered this aspect of his job before and doesn't know how to deal with it.

Dumb and Dumber!




Oops!

LOOK AT THE HAIR!

It is a sad, very sad, state of affairs, folks, when the 'un-initiated' FBI guys start playing with Adobe Photoshop!

Hopefully.

This sez it all, don't it?
