I'm a little late to this party, but I'd like to wish Representative Larry McKeon a happy and active retirement. He is a fellow blogger (check it out here), and his posts somehow capture part of his personality. For example, the headline on his post announcing his retirement is "Well, I made a decision"
Not: "McKeon to Retire". Just, "Well, I made a decision". Something endearing about that.
It's one reason I like the General Assembly so much. It's a very human place.
By the way, be sure to go to the State Fair for either Governor's Day on the 16th of August or Republican Day on the 17th (depending on your party). It's a vivid reminder of how nicely accessible our state leaders are. No matter how powerful the elected official, when they are wearing a short sleeve shirt and sweating in the sun next to the cow made of butter, it's a nice egalitarian aura.

Larry will be missed! He was fine man.
On a side note, loved seeing him walk his dogs in Sprinfield while I was here trying to sell a few bills.
Shalom,
