Future Toll Road Opening Guests....

As Rich pointed out and appeared in a press release from the state

Indy 500 Champion Bobby Rahal Joins Gov. Blagojevich to Debut Open Road Tolling at Touhy Plaza Rahal Drives 2005 Indy 500 Chevrolet Corvette Pace Car Through New Non-Stop Toll Collection Lanes on I-294.

-- So since there are 4 more Open Road Tolling sites opening before the end of the year and if the Governor continues to attend each one I am looking forward the following lines from press releases from the Governor's office during the rest of the year.

Evil Knievel opened the new Open Road Tolling site today with Governor Blagojevich switching the rocket cycle on.

The world famous Bigfoot Monster Truck opened the new Open Tolling site with Governor Blagojevich watching nearby. "How much can we charge that guy for a license plate" Blagojevich quipped.

The next Open Road Tolling site was opened today by having Speed Racer of cartoon fame jumping the Blagojevich sign over the road. "I was glad that Racer X didn't come by." Governor Blagojevich said.

The final Open Road Tolling stretch to open in 2005 was opened today by speed skater Bonnie Blair. "Making the road all icy with her staking under the arch will make a picture that I know will make the front page of the Sun Times" Governor Blagojevich said to a reporter.

-- OneMan sometimes the jokes just write themselves.

How about getting the road runner?

A coworker of mine got stuck in the backup when the Gov. closed the tollway to stage his photo-op. He's not much of a fan of the Gov. these days.
