Brain tumor, bear trouble and dementia along with other ailments. Sounds great.

I always kind of figured if 12 year old squirrel knew a Chicago Politician (minus the mayor) by name that was not a good thing.

not the last of the old school political thieves but one of the last. He'd pick your pocket with a smile and slap on the back.

I was walking by their law offices at least a decade ago, maybe more. There was some other guy on the sidewalk a few feet behind me. Eddie was getting in for the morning. He took a look at the guy and started yelling at him about following him and stay away from his offices. He's pretty much been under investigation for 30 years. He does one thing, gets caught and then finds another scam.

Clearly I remember, pickin on the boy...seemed a harmless little fuck.

I did business with a guy many moons ago that had a site in Eddie's ward.

Paid him $20K per month, in unmarked $20's, and Eddie came for it himself.

Said he was singularly the most scary guy he ever came across.

Someone was telling me Friday night that his son the lawyer is a really good guy.

Remember his radio gig on WLS with Ty Wansley? He had a lot of stories and a lot of grudges.

I agree with the East Side native's Mount Carmel and caddy-paying policies, but he just can't keep his hand out of the cookie jar. Back to jail again. I wonder how much he's gotten away with.

This guy's made a ton of enemies in his life, but he only has himself to blame. He's such a bullshitter.

His 200 acre river-front estate and horse farm over here now appears as owned by Humilis, LLC., a multi-family hedge fund from Boca Raton that emphasizes how humble it is...

But he was hilarious around me. Of course, we were on the same side back then.
