November 19th, 2009 · 2 Comments

November 18th in Waukesha County.
Here we go again. He did so at the end of September only to withdraw the petition.

Hot Topic of the Week: The Latest Spartan Banner Editorial

November 4th, 2009 · 17 Comments

I’ve been summonsed

Jury duty for Waukesha County.
Now I’ve been a Waukesha County juror before. Interestingly, that was quickly followed by a federal jury obligation, too. But, here I go again. The dates defined surround a trip I have planned to OKC for dad’s birthday. I’m hoping since I already have an airplane ticket, they’ll let me [...]

I just had a hit from NBC that was four words: Barack Obama Waukesha WI
You know I think these searches are often things the world knows before I know them. Could it be we’re getting a visitor?

Get ready for a roundabout at Barker and North

May 8th, 2009 · 4 Comments

Whoa! Breaking news, eh? If you’re reading this site you had it two months ago.
I find it very amusing certain city mouthpieces (Mayor Jeff Speaker, Aldermen Steve Ponto and Scott Berg for example) are so very, very quiet on the issue. Oh, I know, it’s county business now. I doubt any of them want to [...]

–Our love affair with NYC Archbishop Timothy Dolan continues as there’s another story and another photo on his transition to the Big Apple.
