Someone (some woman) in my office is wearing shoes with hollow heels that make a very loud, distinctive sound when she walks on the linoleum floor in the mail room (which is adjacent to my little corner of the universe).

What distinctive noise, you may ask?

The sound of a cat heaving a split second before it barfs up a very large hairball.

Ugh. I've been listening to this all day long.

Quote of the Day:

If any lesson is to be learned from this farce, it's that Democrats here know how to get elected but can't govern. It wasn't just Blagojevich who turned Illinois into the nation's most financially challenged state. Illinois Democrats were co-conspirators in wringing huge deficits, stiffing Medicare and other service providers and stuffing the budget with politically motivated programs.

The next elections in this state ought to be quite interesting.
