No talkie talkie by me this morning about Chicago or Springfield or Washington government and politics. And no crabbing by me about some elected or appointed public official who’s now misbehaving him- or herself. I’m here this morning to talk about myself being 87-years-old and concerned, carefully concerned, because in the news business we’re always carefully concerned about everything. In my case, right now, it’s about thinking what might be an interesting and fair subject for me the next time I have time on the air. I can use a pause. I need to cool it. My 40-year-old children, Julia and her husband Sam, live in upstate New York, near Albany, where they own and operate a cannabis farm. They’ve just had their first baby, whom they’ve named Lola. I’ve not yet met Lola and want very much to be with her and Julia and Sam. And I’ve asked for and been granted by WGN some time off to go to New York. I need to cool it. So, you thousands of listeners to Bob Sirott on WGN every weekday morning 6:00 to 10:00, please excuse my absence for a while. Not to say goodbye, but to say see you later. And hey, Elon Musk, you cool it. Stop causing President Trump the trouble you’re causing his new administration.
