That Blue Moon you might have seen in an ad could just be more than a beer special, as it being a Cold One could freeze your buns

Leading the entertainment options this week is a whole bunch of tangents leading to the celebration of all things blue, from the moon, to the snow on household rooftops lit by that full moon that will turn your butt blue from the cold, and the music in bands with that (blue) as part of their name. And that doesn’t even mention the (verbal) connection to Mallory’s Rooftop Bar, even though its not a house:
— They only come around once in a blue moon, but still, the opportunity is there on Dec. 1. That’s when Blue Moon Drive plays the Willow River Saloon in Burkhardt. Their advertising flyers for their gigs and quasi-accompanying brands such as Blue Moon Ale, in places like Dick’s Bar and Grill, show that blue moon above the streetscape of blueish, glowing snow on the roofs of houses. That is where Santa might make an early showing to go down the chimney surrounded by that blue-hued snow, and adding to the drama is that there was a recent full (blueish) moon in the sky to be factored in, to push the matter further, as far as what’s doable. And one last tangent, (I promise), Santa’s buns (the kind in his underwear) just might turn blue if this recent cold snap continues, and an added victim of the cold might be the musicians with strong local ties in the band Blue Hue, which also got recent acclaim in Europe, (where temperatures are more moderate (?!?)
— This is a whopper of a way to get all the wings you want, at Woody’s in Bayport, and it will be worth the wait for Wednesday, since the special in question will not be again active until the next hump-day. You can get those wings, 24 ounces of them, for a total of only $6.50.
— And as long as we are on the theme of waiting until Wednesdays to get into your groove, you can go to Pedro Del Este on that evening, every week, and take in the serenades of an authentic Spanish themed singer and guitarist.

A hodgepodge listing of everything that’s truly different but maybe baked porage follows, and we’re not talking about a connect-the-dots or puzzle-pieces contest or one on Trump’s foreign policy, haha, rather what I saw and what will be seen around town in recent times. Mostly, one of each. Think you have the world’s, or more likely local church’s, best grilled cheese sandwich, (coming from the land of, specifically, well curded and curdled milk and honey?) Fry it to the test on Saturday. No this is not an autumn chili cookoff, or char the best burger, or even a poker run...

  • Give props to the several bands for climbing partway up deer-stand-style lofts, then taking to all but the lute. (We saw virtually every other style of smaller instrument at a Music in the Trees fundraiser for a nature preserve.) Yes, they dropped a couple of drumsticks to the forest floor, but perservered as a fan fave. Then a band from The Andes stole the show.
Music in the trees? It conjures up images of a poet wearing millenniums-ago robe and sandals while playing a lute and propped onto the fourth fork of a bigger-than-usual apple tree and doing a balancing act on his ass while he sings a soliloquy or a soffit. Maybe taking a bite in-between verses, to match what listeners chomped on if they hauled it in down long nature paths, making for dinner and a show with duos and trios, and one huge and elaborate band. Well didn’t quite get that lute-ist. Or a bassist so high on life and so-forth stoned...

  • The start of one song, was simply “Question?” So we’ll lead off this story — Guess Who? — with who will lead the blue as it attempts to fade in with the red in the county in this election cycle? Can we get to The Color Purple? Mock the Maroon? (A scam Alert!!! My post is massively updated after my short trip between Badger and Gopher states. So read on.)
Questions everywhere? These days, how do you dismiss an ad or a politician, or whoever or whatever pops up and occupies your computer screen, or mailbox, electronic or otherwise? And did that answer in the form of a package or letter or even air waves — coming from a pol or a pool? — ever actually arrive, like all those ads and flyers? Maybe it never will? And surely not written with a quill. As one friend just reminded me, it all starts with one problem leading into another set of problems. Or, like a volcano boiling and brewing and...

  • The hearsay vote will be read by some as pure heresy, as Hermening spies the ‘country club crowd’ for how he can putt to quasi-greatness and quash Trump. Then in today’s election there’s a pro-life, run-of-the-mill muckadymuck, a Hong pro-education predictable, and a sharper than the average sheep Shannon (yes it’s a he.) THat’s what flyers tell us about the Day’s Of Our Lives. Today.
Hey today they threw it all back to you, as it is election day, and with it the last Badger gasp — if least if they’re our candidates — (is that the throaty noise they make?), with a soar-throated, campaign-trail rasp made by an audio-version plethora of last-minute flyers that fill our boxes with hopes to grasp, so we can check their boxes when we go to the polls and pick a (partial) winner to move on to full November midterms. Less then the Trump-triumphed manhandling our mailboxes got however, in the last election of this type. Those worn, creaking...
