My Buddy Blago


We were invited to a meeting with our Governor, Rod Blagojevich (blah GOY uh vich for those of you from outside Illinois). The photo above is me, the Governor, and the current president of our organization, Dr. Eddie Pont. The Governor is going to announce big new healthcare initiatives and wanted our input (and ultimately, support). This is the second time I've met him, but the first was at a press conference with lots of people - this was a smaller meeting. He was with us for nearly an hour and really listened to us. And told us about Elvis' last movie, with Mary Tyler Moore.
