Mister Swami: So, did Drew Peterson wheel his wife’s body out their Bolingbrook home in a blue drum? And what IS a blue drum anyway? Is it like a tympani or a snare drum? And why would be it blue? Signed: Very confused in Libertyville.
Dear Confused,
Swami doesn’t have the time to figure out the “blue drum” business. Who stuffs a dead wife in a blue drum, anyway? It’s so ‘50s.
But there is new info to report and Swami will be the first one to let you know about it.
Drew Peterson’s attorney’s is the brother of David P. Brodsky, the former chief public defender of Lake County and now an associate judge hereabouts. Neither of the Brodskys own a blue drum, but wouldn’t you like to be a fly on the wall when the brothers Brodsky have a weekend beer?
Speaking of old Peterson business, there seems to be some confusion among Swami’s fans about how old a 54-year-man would be if his wife started at 17 and was 40 the next time you took a look at him.
Hey, Bucko, it’s like that SAT question about a train leaving Kansas City at 4:15 and traveling 80 miles an hour. When will it crash into the oncoming train that started in Sandusky, Ohio, at 5 a.m. but stopped for 10 minutes in Muscatine, Iowa , at 6:30? You get this wrong and the scholarship to Yale is a no-go.
Without going through the quadratic equations which Swami doesn’t have time to explain, here’s the short answer.
He’d be 118. Look it up. It’s math.
What am I? John Forbes Nash?
Good Grief: Do Bolingbrook people have nothing better to do than make it impossible for Drew Peterson to go anywhere? He cannot even go to the local bar anymore ? The lady across the street from him is not helping, what about drew & staceys kids. They see and hear all of this circus, I feel bad for them.
