@JayDeeMv2: I have a feeling, we're gonna have a rematch real soon. Matty, you, and Spook all deserve a shot at the champ (re: me) because I don't feel like a true "cock of the walk" without facing everyone. But I have to warn you, what little I did see from Spav was strong. If she didn't have ADHD, it probably would have been bad for me.

She started with Schlitz, then double fisted free Goose Island IPA's before switching to Bud Light.

@Fed: He could say something that indicates the obvious (this man raised money for me), but, as long as he's lying and whatnot, claim that there was no understanding with his office that jobs would be procured and it was all everyone's-favorite-methhead-Levine's big talk, but with no authority to do anything. It's plausible and would undercut the media to some degree. Instead we get this Inland Empire twist of "It might look exactly like me, but it's really someone else entirely, quite possibly some physical manifestation of primordial political cynicism that terrorizes an parallel Springfield that you enter by going through the wrong door at the Governor's Mansion."

And what's more, I should have known the fix was in when Spav's roommate missed "To off-road enthusiasts, what does the letters 'SUV' mean?"

What's interesting is... that's EXACTLY how the night played out.

PlumPlum82, You are soo wrong bro! I was there! I can help if every one assumed that I was Black instead of blonde and Blue Eyed husky build guy! I sat there and watched you "win" the whole night! I even brought Spav1 a budlite! I chatted her up outside smoking. I'm taking her out for dinner at the Hard Rock cafe and its on to the Excalibur do to a little "raising the roof"! And truth be told, she said the rest of the Chicagoist players let you win because, well hate to break it to you, but they thought you were strange and might get violent if they didn't let you win. Cer nope, I don't mix work with movies. But I do mix drinking. So when you hear the silence of the movie shattered( as Blago right before his escape, tells a teary George Ryan that he will come back for him)by the sound of a empty beer bottel tumbling down the middle of the theater floor accompanied by an Opps! You will know that your boy Spook kicked over one of his empties by mistake!

@Spook: You bash everyone at every corner, yet you're essentially a coward who can't show his face. Bow down to your superior. /2008 Chicagoist Trivia Pursuit Champion

Cer, Oh please, look at that man! You think he's gonna spend more than two weeks in prison? He's gonna bust out ala Tom Cruise Mission Impossible style. Break into the Fed building, get information that clears his name, umask the persons who framed him, Lisa Madigan and Pat Quinn and become President with O'Bama as his Vice, it will be revealed that O'Bama helped Blago escape. And you Cer will be front row when the movie comes to Big Screen with Tom Cruise playing Blago! Faaantastic you!

Do you think Blago and Ryan will share a cell?

I don't care what you folks say! I'm gonna miss Blago's aggressive parade style running back and forth shaking hands, working up a sweat! Word! State police protection detail can't keep up, staff members in running shorts with signs! ROCK ON! You haters! p.s Ya Bunny needs a beer!
