The last day.
Convicted former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich's (final hours of freedom are winding down before he must report to Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) Englewood in Littleton, Colo., Thursday to serve his 14 years for corruption.
On Tuesday, Blagojevich took his wife and two daughters to Lincoln Park Zoo to enjoy the mild weather. When they arrived home, neighbors greeted them, offering the former governor support. On the sidewalk outside his home, posters are still seen with messages thanking Blagojevich and expressing outrage at the severity of his sentence.
Blagojevich plans to make a statement at 5:02 p.m. Wednesday. It's not clear what he'll say, nor how he'll spend the hours before he leaves.
Once he's in prison, Blagojevich will be assigned to a two- or four-man room. He'll need to be up at 6:30 a.m. every day and will be assigned a job, mostly likely latrine duty because it's typically given to newcomers.

:lol:
I can hear his statement now. “Fourteen years is a small price to pay, giving up my life with family and watching my daughters grow up, so that I can protect the Obama administration from the crimes they made me commit and the coverup they implicated me in.”
