Hello Again…
Another saga in the life from Playfair at the Bait Shop and Sushi Bar owned and operated by Earl ‘n’ Lester. Only thing is the lake is so low nobody much wants to risk running their boat up on a stump that now is just below the water’s surface – so the usual group of fisher folks are hanging back or going to other, deeper water spots.
Meantime, Homer it seems has mistaken a “Personal” letter from the Obama campaign as an offer of a Federal Job… only he’s gotten no follow up and that has caused him a lot of concern. It’s been four weeks plus now… and he’s thinking something has gone awry. On top of all that is the scandal that is perpetually brewing in Chicago-land… the land of Tony Rezko and the cozy landowner’s swap – The incumbent governor was taken in handcuffs to the jail on Tuesday and released on a very low bail – but the prosecutor bringing the package to court is the U.S. Attorney named Fitzgerald – who has already made a name for himself and apparently looking to make another – as well as possibly set himself up to run for office there in Chicago which could certainly use some high level and persistent house cleaning. The preceding governor – Ryan is still in prison; and it looks like the current one has assembled a goodly set of evidence – in the form of wiretaps that lock him and several others into what may be long jail terms. It’s happened before.
So – back to Playfair on the Caroliner line… looks like things are changing – in addition to the lake level. You’ll just have to be here with us day by day as the reports come in each Wednesday or so. We’re drawing near the end of the year perhaps BIG change [now that Obama is ready to be inaugurated in January] is in the offing. The price of gas is settling back more toward normal… maybe the rest of society will too. It’s too much excitement over at the Bait Shop and Sushi Bar.
Cordially, IN HIM
Jack
