Illinois
Comptroller Dan Hynes is not generally known for his sense of humor.
Privately,
in one-on-one situations, Hynes can be engaging, and even funny. Put
him in front of a microphone, however, and he's usually stiff as a
board.
So,
it was a great surprise last week when Comptroller Hynes regaled a
Springfield audience with a "fable" that had attendees laughing
with glee.
