Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader saw something on the news wire today that made him laugh. It seem that the $14.6 billion dollar “Big Dig” project in Boston is full of leaks.

Now let your Maximum Leader go on the record and say that he knows the suffering of the good people of Boston (and all of New England frankly) during the decades of building the Big Dig. He’s been through the “Big Dig.” Mrs. Villain (and by extension your Maximum Leader) have relatives who drive through the “Big Dig” every day.

But knowing that the “Big Dig” is full of leaks that could take up to 10 years to fix just makes your Maximum Leader laugh. He laughs because last year as your Maximum Leader and his esteemed Brother-in-law were driving through the “Big Dig” we commented that this project can’t afford to end. Too many contractors would go out of business. We both speculated that once the “Big Dig” was completed it would need scores of workers for regular maintenance and leak-plugging.

And so it comes to pass… All has gone according to plan…

Carry on.
