Arnold

Matier and Ross are political reporters for the San Francisco Chronicle. I enjoy their column because they seem to be well connected and give some interesting insight to the local political scene. It didn't take deep sources to write the following which appeared in today's Chronicle.

"Speed Bump: Busted leg or no, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger isn't letting up on his public appearances.

Many thought the Governator might take a break after his inauguration and State of the State speech. Instead, he's hobbling along, coming down San Francisco for the Martin Luther King Jr. Day breakfast Monday, then off to Los Angeles that night for the Golden Globe Awards.

He's done quite a job of working through the pain, although some think the painkillers have kicked into gear a bit unexpectedly at times.

Like at the post-inaugural luncheon when he introduced Eunice Shriver, telling the crowd: "She's 86 years old, and she flies out here all by herself. Eunice - you don't look a day over 90!"

Whoops."
