I am returning to Sacramento, California, Friday, September 21st. I\u2019m appearing in an annual program that the Sacramento Metro Chamber of Commerce puts on every year. It\u2019s entitled &#8216;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.metrochamber.org\/CWT\/Index.aspx\">Perspectives<\/a>,\u2019 and they bring in four or five people to speak for a time, and they sell tickets to the thing. I\u2019ve received an invitation from my buddy Tom Sullivan this year, who emcees, and I have decided to go. Also on the speaker\u2019s roster is General John Abizaid, the former commander of US Central Command; Lawrence Summers, former secretary of the treasury and the recently bounced president of Harvard (because he made some women professors mad); Chris Gardner, the self-made millionaire, author of <emphasize>The Pursuit of Happyness<\/emphasize>. I, of course, am on the roster, and Colin Quinn, a political and social comedian. It\u2019s around lunchtime. I\u2019m not sure what the start time of it is, but it is Friday, September 21st. I\u2019ve got a phone number here to give you if you\u2019re interesting in going, for those of you in the western region of our country. I\u2019m afraid to give it. You know, you give out a phone number, and you open it up to pranks. They have a website, however, and I can give you that. It\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.metrochamber.org\/CWT\/Index.aspx\">www.MetroChamber.org<\/a>. I don\u2019t know how much tickets cost to this, because I don\u2019t have to buy any since I\u2019m on the stage, and I forgot to ask that question, but you can find out at www.MetroChamber.org. It\u2019s Friday, September 21st. So I\u2019m heading back to my adopted hometown. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.metrochamber.org\/CWT\/Index.aspx\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"426\" height=\"56\" class=\"alignright\"\/><\/a>I talked to Sullivan on Friday afternoon, and I said, &#8216;How long does each speaker get at this thing?\u2019<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Ah, I try to keep it at 40 minutes,\u2019 [he said]. <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Gee, Tom, I only get going after 40 minutes.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>So anyway, I just wanted to alert you to this, because I haven\u2019t been back there in a long, long time, and this is going to be a hoot and I\u2019m looking forward to meeting all these people, Abizaid, Larry Summers, Chris Gardner, I haven\u2019t met them. Colin Quinn. Oh, second programming note. This is a four-day week for me, ladies and gentlemen. I will be going on a one-week vacation starting this Friday. I have a guy golf trip. I\u2019ve mentioned this to you. I mentioned it. I\u2019m going out to Hawaii. We do this every year. We usually go to Europe, but because I\u2019m not going to give Customs another shot at me, we\u2019re not. That\u2019s why. I\u2019m not going to use US Customs \u2019til this next election is over. I\u2019m not going through there. I\u2019m not giving them a chance to plant something on my airplane. I\u2019m not going to do it, after that little brouhaha the last time with these people. So my golf buddies graciously said, &#8216;Well, look, one of them lives out in Hawaii. Why don\u2019t we just host it out there?\u2019 So that\u2019s what we\u2019re going to do. I ordered a bunch of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allenbrothers.com\/Product.jsp?productId=358\">Allen Brothers steaks<\/a> to send out there. We barbecue every night, have massages sometimes. It\u2019s a hoot. (interruption) What? What do you mean, &#8216;How can I leave with illegal immigration&#8230;?\u2019 I gotta get recharged here for the upcoming battles in the fall and the winter and the primary season and so forth. How can I leave when the Democrats are debating? I know. How can I leave when anything is going on? How can I leave, period? Well, the simple fact of the matter is I have to leave! How can I leave when there are hurricanes? I know. How can I leave when there are floods and forest fires? How can I leave when God\u2019s wrath is descending upon America because of George W. Bush? I know, but I must, because I made the commitment. So I just wanted you to know this up front, folks, with plenty of time so you won\u2019t be surprised. It\u2019s an annual trip that we do about this time every year. Yeah, and it\u2019s golf. It\u2019s golf, which I happen to like, I happen to love. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: A couple of programming notes, ladies and gentlemen.
