Here's a trickle:
Federal authorities had more wiretaps than previously disclosed in the investigation of Gov. Blagojevich -- including the cellular telephone of a member the governor's inner circle.
A new government filing in federal court indicates that in November, authorities tapped the cell phone of "Lobbyist 1." The Sun-Times has identified lobbyist 1 as Lon Monk, the governor's first-term chief of staff. Monk later became a fund-raiser and state lobbyist.
Rod Blagojevich takes a jog along with former top aide Lon Monk in 2002. Monk has been identified by the Sun-Times as 'Lobbyist 1.'
The revelation that investigators captured more on secret recordings than previously disclosed, came as federal prosecutors seek to release portions of those recordings to a House Committee seeking the governor's impeachment.
The article goes on to report on blubbering made by Blago's attorney, Ed Genson.
Monk is one of those poor souls who will have to explain why he worked for Blagojevich every time he goes on a job interview.

By the time everything is uncovered
concerning Blago's blunders, I
wonder how much time Blago will
spend in jail
If or when the Lt. Governor Pat
Quinn takes Blago's spot as
governor, would he be out in 2011?
Here a tap there a tap, everywhere
a wiretap, Oh Mac Blago made boo
boo, E-I-E-I-O!
Happy New Year to you and yours
John...
