God, I Miss Mike Royko

Procopius reminded me how much I miss Mike Royko. My mother saved this article from years ago in her bottom drawer. It must have had something to do with her having four daughters. She made each of us read it. Click on the image and it will enlarge so you, too, can read it. Hilarious! I miss this guy! Chicago Tribune hasn't been the same since.

I recognize Royko, but don't remember this article. Absofuckinglutely hysterical! You go girl!

Ha! I love it! Remember when Paigie and I took that self-defense class between high school and college? I wish we would have been taught that move. Perfection!

I wonder why he'd written his name in his trousers.

Was Royko syndicated? The name rings a bell, but I don't know where I know it from.

I remember Mike Royko. One tough woman.

He was always one of my favorites. You rarely see common sense in reporting like that anymore.

kobico, yes, he was syndicated. He wrote for Chicago newspapers for years and years. His columns were copied all over the United States.
