        @BeschlossDC @bobloblaw1717 That's why they called him: The Chairman of the Board. Sinatra - a man's man. Oh, and a great artist, too.

        Is it wrong as a female journalist, to love this insane 1976 Sinatra letter? http://youtu.be/2N9SPvtZ6pE  RT @BeschlossDCpic.twitter.com/hEffgx9h9q

        @LouiseSchiavone @BeschlossDC Loved the 'don't know why people don't spit in your eye 3-4 times a day'. Royko v Sinatra, so epic.

        @cathere Although he does lose control of the sentence when he starts talking about "hookers" - but that's to be expected, Frank dear.

        @LouiseSchiavone Yeah, the hookers and pimps part was Sinatra-esque and demeaning, but I repeat myself.

        @Bretontheradio Grew up reading Royko. I don't think there's been anyone better (it's a Chicago thing....).
