I rerouted many many emails that weren't intended for my eyes. When I found out the higher-up one was leaving also (as always, in an email that was misaddressed to me lol), I made sure to send him a farewell gift: "It's better to burn out then fade away" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wolfriverjoe 1,523 #530 July 22, 2020 Hi Jerry, Interesting that Michael Madigan, House Speaker for Illinois, was served with subpoenas for documents relating to ComEd, a different power company than the one in Ohio. No charges yet, but there are calls for him to step down.https://www.illinoispolicy.org/madigan-subpoena-shows-far-reach-of-federal-investigation/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wolfriverjoe 1,523 #534 August 17, 2020 Remember the Florida sheriff who said he was going to deputize anyone who owned a gun during the BLM protests? And threatened to hunt down Godless BLM looters? Well, now he's facing three felony charges. Apparently, his wife found out about his long time mistress. And she (the wife) threatened to kill her (the mistress). When all three were at an event, the sheriff filed a stalking report against the mistress, who was arrested but not booked. Because the deputy who arrested her didn't think the charges were valid. So the sheriff is facing charges for tampering with evidence and lying to authorities. Oh, and by the way, the sheriff has multiple degrees... From Liberty University. They seem to do such a great job instilling those "Christian Values" in their graduates. https://friendlyatheist.patheos.com/2020/08/14/fl-sheriff-who-threatened-to-hunt-down-godless-blm-looters-faces-felony-charges/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook&fbclid=IwAR2uuvzLEtbGNgA5E4AnAwSgsxq2-mUEtUEmEFCTxWAgFieYbq91KtVjUjo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
