Did you think I was done with Rod Blagojevich?  Not likely.  At least, not yet.

Days after Rod has appeared on Late Night with David Letterman "in the worst way"... you'd think the fervor would have died down.  Not so much.  A recent visit to Ebay, the online auction site, shows that when typing Blagojevich into the search line, 131 items show up.  Are you ready to shop?  Let's see what we can buy these days with our PayPal account.

A "Buck Flagojevich" bumper sticker going for 99¢... that's a good start, no bids yet..  A Blagojevich Inaugural Invitation with 7 bids, going for $38.00.  Believe it or not, a Blago Pez Dispenser, with 3 bids, going for only $3.25 (there's still time to get in on this one!).  A blago plastic figurine (in the shape of a horses hind end)... going for 99¢ (no bids yet).

There are quite a few autographed photos of the Gov. ranging in price from $29.99 and up... including a few with David Letterman.  A signed baseball (who is he now... Mickey Mantle?... a Bobblehead for $19.99 (with free shipping)... Do we really need a Bobblehead for the Gov.  Isn't he the original "bobblehead"?

One of my favourites... a "crumb" shaped like Illnois, titled "Illinois Crumbs (all that's left after Blagojevich) going for $2.00 (no bids).  Lots of newspaper headlines, and bumper stickers... and even that infamous "Target Rats" poster...  T-shirts, Campaign Buttons, and Trading Cards (yes, Trading Cards) with the face of the candidate who put the Goober back in Gubenatorial on them.

You know, if he's planning a run for... er.... um... just about anything... this kind of advertising can't be bought.  It's Bleepin' Golden!

Now, who's going to go win me that Bobblehead for my collection?  Hmmmm?

Alan..your playing right into Rod's hand..all advertising is good advertising as the saying goes, I'm not sure he could win the position as Dog catcher if they counted the votes carefully.

Alan, I love the title to this blog! you are so full of trivial information! How would we laugh if it weren't for you!! Blago is a crazy phenomenon and we probably haven't heard the last of him!

Steve - I recognize, that by giving him this "publicity" I'm playing right into his hands... but that's just the "brilliance" of his complex plan.

Caren - I'm sure we haven't heard the last of him yet... I fully anticipate that he'll be announcing his run for 2012 any day now.

Like any other politician, we will never truly get rid of him.

Hey Alan, he sounded like such an idiot on Letterman!  It was painful watching him.  I can't believe that the pez dispenser has the absolutely correct hairdo!  What you can do with plastic nowadays.

One of the great things about living in America - where else would this create such interest and humor!
