McCloggedPipes on the Mend
- Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy offered some insight Sunday to his recent health scare and his recovery.
"Today is the best I've felt since I had the heart attack," McCarthy said. "What's been killing me is the medication has been banging me up with all sorts of physical ailments."
McCarthy, who attended Sunday's Chicago Pride Parade, says he's been "losing my mind sitting around."
He said he's been keeping in touch with the department by phone and blackberry and has even gone in to the office to work a few half days.
No word on the 29 shootings. No word on the two shot after the parade. Nary a mention of the destroyed squad car. And certainly nothing about the "merit" promotion slipping through so many layers of responsibility. But hey, he's doing half-days and keeping in touch with the boys back at the office.

Kind Of Off Topic - But Not really from Le’rome Jay’on..
Word out of Unit 189 is that Sergeant Hulka’s second big toe is not doing too well. I guess Front Desk Judy called him up and told him to “Stop Smoking” and he dropped his Miller Lite and was rushed to the hospital in a bam-ba-lance.
Word is Dr. Summeroff told him he would need several weeks of rest and recovery before he can return to work again and wear his Cubs hat backwards. In the mean time he will be referred to keep away from Fhadi’s and was given a gift certificate to Leos Nose & Ear Hair Removal Company. They’ll be plenty of OT going on there!
Get well!
I wonder if McStreetlights' emails are accessible via FOIA? Not that you'd find anything awesome in there but it would be fun to piss off someone at City Hall...
Gary lost his mind long before sitting around.
What a guy.
What's a blackberry? Oh I get it Garry u tease so clever it's fierce !!! Grrrrr call me ; )
Unbelievable. He is such an ego maniac that he has to go where the cameras are. This guy just has to go away... it's just embarrassing now.
Why does the superintendent of police feel the need to be in the pride parade? How about those strategies concerning gang violence Garry? Well let me tell you something. They aren't working and you should be more concerned with that then riding on a float in the guy parade!
McGiveMeAShotOfDrano loves rainbows.
CPD and citizens are so lucky to have such a dedicated and plucky boss, as the big guy is. Dispite his serious maladies, he is keeping his finger on the pulse of the city. What a Guy!
Get Well Soon - Gary. We want ya back in action, big guy.
I wish i could do part time medical!
By "medication" he means alcohol,right?
"Heart Attack"?
Wait, no one has said this before!
Guess the lackeys in the media went right along with the program.
OT: I wish McCloggedPipes had the same mindset as the San Antonio Police Chief does.
The San Antonio Police Department teamed up with News 4 WOAI and Education Service Center-Region 20 to produce the SAPD's Civilian Response to Active Shooter training video.
4:01 into the video is a breath of fresh air.

Hey Gary: If you want to ease up some of that extra stress you might be having about the crime waive and the huge sudden increase in the gun violence in the 011th District, then please send 1100x and his side kick packing. There is no support for them and its about to become a complete work shut down. You proved your point to the aldercreature, so Please get rid of those two.
Yes McShit for brains, you lost your brain just sitting around. You lost it a long time ago.
I want to comment, but my inner angel won't let me.
He still is hanging out with Ricky Simon in the Viagra Triangle.
I guess he has failed to google Ricky Simon and organized crime!
Why does everyone keep wondering why there are so many openings in 019? Remember Cpt. TL (now know as 1100x) was there. Everyone left thanks to his hostile work environment that he created. Then off to Mass Transit where he was told to leave, again due to a hostile work environment created by him, again.
Move alone, move along. Nothing to see here...
No drinking I do not think so !
I'm not a cop, but let me just say what a joke. He's just as self centered as his boss. Get up, pull Rahms finger out of your ass and support the city and the men and women who work under you. Tell the city the truth and not what Rahm wants you to tell us.
Hey, we should be very grateful to McCloggedPipes. If he was not working half-days, we would have twice as many shootings. He is the answer and the solution.
How can he be losing his mind when that was lost long ago?
Remember his heart condition will be used for the reason for his leaving by summers end.......

Google it. There were numerous reports it was a heart attack. Even our media affairs guy said it was a heart attack.
Leave the man alone. He is sick for God's sake. Have you all no compassion or Christianity? Many of us are Catholic, but any religion teaches compassion. What is up?
It's hell having a heart attack. He survived and needs to recover. Whatever your thoughts about him, he's a human being and our Superintendent. Support him while he recovers. Period.
@Anonymous 6/30/2014 02:51:00 AM,
Thank you so much for posting that YT link, that was fantastic, and the attitude of SAPD towards law-abiding citizens who carry (and train to be qualified to carry) is, as you say, refreshing.
McRainbow.
McLeave already! And your little dog too!

Blow me you moron.
Ricky Simon? The Ben Stein Ricky Simon?
Hey Garry, you did such an awesome job handling the NATO deal why don't you get out of the car and spend some time with the troops on Halsted or Belmont AFTER the Pride Parade? Huh?
Stop Smoking!

Mmmm-Hmmmm...
You cry pity and compassion for a less than
human who is burning the fine men an women
of CPD at both ends as "acceptable casualties" in
his quest to be seen as the man who who "changed"
Policing in Chicago forever.
Second coming of Sir Robert Peel in a dead dog's hockey-dot...
Cry your tears of pity somewhere else.
We see Garry McCarthy for who and what he is.
We've seen Policemen, sons and grandsons of Policemen too... McCarthy is a pale, ego driven imitation who should hang his head in shame for what
he's had a hand in doing to CPD.
Play with your Hot-Wheels on the Dan Ryan, child...
The adults are busy trying to survive this.

Make sure you extend your compassion to the wayward flock on the south & west sides.

No, you're wrong. It has everything to do with the merger. That guy was gone when the merge took place.
Signed,
Someone who works there

Absolutely, but whether the city complies with the request is another story. That's how Kwame Kilpatrick was initially brought down by the Detroit Free Press.

Couldn't find anybody to take care of your wish last weekend, huh?
You don't have much to lose, Supt.
