Hope the Sodfather made the trip.

Jerry Taft says rain out by 8, but I don’t think the shithole drains as well as Comiskular.

The City of Chicago, led by Mayor Daley and a vast and tumorous army of aldermen and bagmen and yesmen and opportunists and spineless, parasitic political-machine halfwits of forms never seen outside the roiling cesspool of governmental slop-trough greed, has proven itself unworthy of something as potentially delicious and fulfilling as the 2016 Olympic Games.

Probably going to get laid off, the entire child welfare system in Illinois on the verge of collapse… sigh

hopefully its not dependent on state funding

If it happens I will be fine, I’m all setup for an LSAT review course and am planning on going to law school soon, I never planned on sticking with case work. The people that have made this a career are most in trouble.

But our foster kids and parents will be totally shit out of luck. Its going to cause some major problems.

as i say to everyone contemplating law school

make sure you know what you’re getting into. wracking up $140K in debt or something isn’t generally a good idea.

should have gotten into a better business.

now, i’m saying this as an outsider and it’s purely anecdotal. but i sure see lots of kids around. seems like you’re on the wrong end of the supply/demand curve. now, old people. that’s a booming business. always dying so we need new ones.

Illinois

Has the largest amount of kids in foster care out of all 50 states. We started the shit as well, not too good.

They are talking about cutting payments to foster care providers by 50 percent, that is going to “blow placements” as we say.

Political posturing as usual. Though it wouldn't hurt if some at the trough shared the pain real citizens are feeling.

Not you of course, but the Madigans of the world don’t have a clue.

Yeah

Trust me we are private agencies are not too happy. State workers are due a raise, but the majority of us will be laid off. Furthermore DCFS expects to lay off 38 percent of its workers. That means the case load will be around 50 families which means = the state is the one committing the neglect.

Its posturing on all sides, a tax hike is needed and nobody wants to be involved. Lisa Madigan hasn’t said a peep on the subject… I wonder why.

And I'd add that Illinois is almost Mississippi-like in Its regard for "human" issues. Like "human" equates to "communism" instead of neighbors.

I don’t think I’ll be able to see ANY of the other games against the Cubs. Maybe they’ll reschedule this one when I can see it though.

test run for the 2013 series, which itself will act as a test run for the 2016 olympics.

it’s a moot point of course as we’ll all be dead by the the end of 2012 anyways, according to the internet.
