Allah hum ding

CATAGORIES: OLD FRIENDS — FloridaBill @ 6:44 am

Last week I got a call from my old boss who said he was going to be in Chicago for business yesterday and today. I had a trial to attend downtown, so afterwards, I walked to the Four Seasons and met him for a beer. Illinois Govenor Rod Blogyoyovich walked in to the bar and said hello to us. He looks like a little kid. We then went to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner. This is the man who hired me back in 1986 and we went thru much together. We had a great time last night reminiscing about people we have not seen in 15 years or more. He has managed to put his three sons thru college and now has two grandsons and his wife is a breast cancer survivor. He is a remarkable guy who taught me a lot. It was a very pleasant visit and I appreciated seeing him again. I took the above pic with the cell-cam, so forgive the quality.

    He was my supervisor when I started in insurance too. Nice guy. I wish I could see him again. We had a very good time working in that office…

    Latest news from Chicago reveals that Illinois Governor Rod Blog—- is missing and presumed to have been ate by a large black bear. A search is on for a mysterious man who was seen taking a picture of the bear with his cellphone. It is believed the cellphone man may have some involvement in the disappearance of the Governor. More news to follow.

    CJ, the picture is of FB and my old boss. Not the Gov… However, he may have gone missing!!!

    I don’t know if the Govenor is missing or not, but the “bear” is the business end of a horse pulling a carraige down Michigan Avenue. He almost was run over by the carraige just a moment after I snapped the pic. He hasn’t changed much eh? We had lots of catching up to do. Again, I enjoyed it immensely.

    Ooooh - now I see the horse’s ass! The old boss seems like a very nice guy. You’re lucky old bosses want to hang out with you. Mine all want to hurt me I truly believe.

    This one knows better. He is not a bridge-burner, but has been a source of cohesion in keeping in touch with people and old co-workers. He recently retained our old friend Mr. Hill in SoCal to do some leg work for him in a wicked auto versus 4 pedestrian accident in Orange County.

  9. Yarbz says:

    Mr. Hill must still be in business! I guess he got tired of killing mountain lions and making the PETA and animal porkers angry.

  10. FloridaBill says:

    He is in business and I guess the Peta folks have moved on…

    And here I thought that was your old boss with Gov. Rod but it’s just the horses ass. My mistake.
