Sal Pisconeri does Chicago.

Last night I was graced with the presence of the legendary Sal Pisconeri of WOSU fame and his co-fantasy All Sport owner Scott. Of course there was some drama the day before Sal’s departure from Columbus that put this entire gathering in jeopardy.  Thankfully he did the right thing and ‘made it happen’.

With their timely arrival we opted out of the Cubs game and headed to Finley Dunnes for beer and wings.  I would say it was quite successful.  Of course we spent a good portion of the night discussing the Cleveland Browns 11th consecutive Spring AFC North Title.

But that’s what you do when you drink with a man from Cleveland.

 

Apology Check.

This past weekend I got my George W. Bush Apology Check.  For those who have know idea what I’m talking about it’s the check from the President that says:

Sorry for ruining your country for the past seven and a half years, please take this money.  I know it’s small but it’s the most I could do considering the current state of things.

Honestly, I’m sorry.

My bad.

What I find most ironic about my Apology Check is that it was issued from the Treasury Department’s Austin, Texas office.
