Shit's about to get real.

Many folks are being asked to work from home this week instead of driving into the city. Those pesky protestors can get a little riled up at businessmen and women walking the streets in the financial district, for example.

Also, the following road closures are scheduled for the weekend:

•Lake Shore Drive (LSD) from 39th street to Balbo will be closed
•Access to 1-55 southbound and access to LSD via 1-55 northbound will be closed
•I-55 northbound from I-90/94 to LSD will be closed
•Columbus Drive from Balbo to McFetridge will be closed
•Roosevelt Road from Michigan Avenue to LSD will be closed
•Indiana Avenue from 21st street to 25th Street will be closed
•31st Street from Martin Luther King Drive to LSD will be closed
•Martin Luther King Drive from Cermak to 26th street will be closed
•Cermak from Michigan Avenue to Martin Luther King Drive will be closed
•Ontario street from Orleans to Fairbanks will be intermittently closed
•Ohio street from Orleans to Fairbanks will be intermittently closed
•Clark street from Oak Street to Ontario will experience lane reductions
•Dearborn street from Kinzie to Ontario Street will experience lane reductions

They should do that every weekend. Fucking trains are nothing but a rolling homeless shelter / drunk tank on the weekends.

We have been told to work from home on Monday. Every other day we have to brave the horde of hippies. I plan on wearing a suit that has a picture of Reagan airbrushed on the back. My bag will be bedazzaled with the corneas of humpback whales.

Union Station will also have mandatory baggage checks, much like at an airport. Have also heard that train passengers will only be allowed one carry-on bag.

My brother in law is working the detail at command and control center in the Burr Ridge Convention Center....

His prediction? Could go 'eh' or it could be a real mess. The Chicago PD is really undermanned, if the G8 was in the city as well.......the place would burn to the ground.

We've been doing work at a building on Michigan Ave. They had 50 sheets of plywood delivered last friday just in case. They also told us no work this friday, but I don't know if that's their "rule" or a city thing.

We'll just have Douchebag walk with us. They think he's one of them.


The biggest problem with this entire situation is my lunch.


My company is urging us to brown bag our lunch so we wont have to leave the building unnecessarily


A couple things:

A) My leaving this office for 10 minutes to get away from some of the moody bitches and bastards in this office is EXTREMELY necessary
B) Why dont YOU, my company, bring in my lunch if you want me locked down all day

Fuck it.

4 of the 7 Crew members work downtown. We should all wear our matching jackets. People need to understand that there's a force down here way bigger than the protesters and NATO put together.

When do you plan to visit your pal near Lake & Central again. I always knew you were a head-guy.

I don't remember feeling intimidated one bit, as the traffic cop seemed to be taking my side, probably hoping that my foot slipped on the gas pedal and I accidentally took a few of 'em out.

You could have just said your transmission dropped. The police and everyone would have bought that story,

Lunch seems like the perfect time and amount of time for some quality protest watching. I still think I would want to generally not look like one of them, but that's just me. I am just having a hard time envisioning stupid people taking random swings at other people just because they happen to be downtown. Maybe I am stupid, I don't know.

You need to save your money and buy some more votes.

My campaign shall heretofore be to discredit your claim and make your illegitimate "reign" as miserable as possible, for you, as charlatan, lack the honor of a rightful leader.

You are an embarrassment to the title, and you do not deserve even share office with the gallant Joe Orr Road Rod.

My first course of action in my administration is the banishment of Mr. Bovifs of Alsip. Who's with me?
