Senator Fawghourne

      This interview took place in Senator Fawghourne's secret local office where he escapes from Grover Norquist and the rabid anti-tax increase people.  He has long been known for fiscal conservatism, but that means that no tax dollar should be wasted and money should never be borrowed except to maintain the infrastructure.  As he always says, "Tax money well spent is often a bargain.  We should never forget our obligation to posterity in seeking a short term tax reduction."

This interview was neither requested nor prearranged... serendipitous... the product of running into the Senator as he strolled along Arbor Avenue near its intersection with Washington Street.  It was only by chance that I noticed the Senator but it was passion and anger that brought him to my side of the street and taught me what arm twisting was all about

This interview took place sitting on one of the benches in beautiful down town West Chicago. I had been taking pictures of store fronts on Main Street for the Shopping Guide. Sitting there, I was thinking about whether I prefer individual store fronts or the panorama type resentation when a familiar voice boomed from behind me.

This interview took place on a tour boat traversing the locks in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan.  Face it, a 23 foot vertical lift in a lock is not up their with Raging Waters Water Park or a rafting trip on the Colorado, but, at least, it is a nice quiet place to talk.

This interview took place at the cyber cafe in beautiful, downtown Rock Crossing, Montana, about five miles south east of Plentywood.  The waitress and tech consultant there, Mabel, a woman some might think has been "rode hard and put in the barn wet", but in reality, the waitressing job merely allowed time for her two true passions, loop invariance of object oriented parsination routines and ice fishing.

This interview took place on the balcony, overlooking the lake, at WegoWeb, Inc.'s International Headquarters, a "secret, secure, undisclosed location" in northern Wisconsin.  The venue was suggested by Senator Fawghourne because it offered him an opportunity to indulge in one of his culinary favorites, deep fried fresh Lake Superior White Fish.
