The calendar read April 27th, so naturally, in the course of a single hour, we experienced rain, hail, sleet, and snow, to go along with limited visibility on the roads. #yaywisconsin - Lisa

More Snow



My winter hat, worn backwards, becomes the ideal sleep mask, should you find yourself forced to sleep in a chair on a plane, bus, etc. It eliminates ail light; the ear flaps cradle the face; and the faux fur lining lies softly against one's eyes.

Do I think the mayor orchestrated the demolition of Northridge Mall to remove an eyesore before the DNC convention? Sure. Do I think motive matters when the result is good? No.

Smiley gets me a great Hamilton bust!

Smiley is home from DC, and brought me a wonderful bust of Alexander Hamilton from Monticello! (oddly, the home of Hamilton's nemesis, Jefferson)

Forrest Gregg

 


He was one of Vince Lombardi's favorite players. He was a first ballot Hall of Famer. He coached the Bengals to a Super Bowl appearance. It's a heck of a resume. But trustfully, what I remember of him are some dim recollections of him being named head coach of the Packers in the 80's, and a press conference where he announced his departure from the same. 

RIP Packer. RIP.

MPS Rules from 1846

 Good, solid rules that produced the generation that won the Civil War.

Captain MooMoo makes an appearance

Captain Moo Moo made a rare social appearance, jumping up on the bed and demanding I pet him for a good ten minutes.
