Just a Sidenote....

Mayor Bloomberg has been rumored to be on the verge of eliminating taxes on clothing purchases. Now if you've ever shopped for clothing in New York or Chicago, you know that the offerings are entirely different. Forget the crap you see on those runway clips where people are wearing paper mache. Here in the midwest, good clothing and high quality clothing are just too good for us, I mean, we don't need anything better than things that all look the same and last about a year.

If you have friends in New York that you can stay with, a trip out there is pretty cheap. There are also some quality inexpensive hotels, especially if you ask for a corporate rate (and, anyone can do that).

So note to Barrett and Doyle....

uh. Nevermind... how about this: note to future politicians....
