Western Wisconsin ceases to be Never Neverland, as the very late-night political ads that are all over — especially for ill-funded a.m. candidates — stream across the TV airwaves over the St. Croix

Lets get political, political, lets get political, and after all political … to paraphrase the pop song:
— A friend of mine has taken credit for various political ad promptings that got the Wisconsin word out in the western parts. She wrote to Tammy Baldwin and suggested running TV ads in the Twin Cities metro area, which after all has a reach much of the way to Eau Claire. Baldwin did so, followed by a couple of other Wisconsin Democratic candidates. This was followed by TV spots from the state Republicans, including the King of the Right Wing, the governor Scott Walker himself.
— And then there is another friend of mine, who I saw out and about for the first time in months recently, as she is now doing for the most part the family thing, rather then hitting the bar as before. She in turn is friends with Walker and promotes his causes. Even myself, a moderate liberal, has the idea that her political political stance makes sense, for her, since she served in the military in overseas wars and ran a small business with her ex-husband.
— And it has to be perfect timing, considering its the election season, for me trying Arrogant Bastard ale. Good, but a bit bitter. is fitting for the election-based time of year it is
— A local Chinese food offering to cleanse your pallet after a night of drinking fine wine — OK that liquid choice here in Wisconsin is unlikely compared to beer — is the dim sum Chinese variety, which just might describe collectively those many recently departed cabinet members under the thumb of The Donald.

— I see this as one of the best ways to get out the vote. Members can go to Green Mill wearing their “I voted” sticker and get $5 for their bill.

— Lastly, yes I did vote, and ended up in the line of Oz, or that is last names starting with O-to-Z. Seems that would be a vote for Ozzy, and championing some of the political opinions in some of his songs.

They’ve added a coffee bar, so you can have a foray of seating for four on stools in front of it, a wine bar and a petite table for two directly in front of the southwest window, and plenty of inexpensive drinks, but other than that The Urban Table as it is known is much like the former Urban Olive and Vine before it. The man who is the brains behind Hudco To Go has brought those $3 premium drinks and more to the restaurant that is kitty-corner to the, again, southwest when you take Locust Street and venture onto...
So many problems in our world, US and UK. How and when to bitch? Waiting for them to be named by a sizeable band, if they shed light on politics and ethical behavior in general, can make you numb. Has anyone else noticed, as we get older and grayer, the similarity in facial look between two who are on vocals, first a rapper and second a metal singer, knotted-side-hair Snoop Dogg and long and straight-to-collar Bruce Dickinson, one who spews island drinks as opposed to the other homemade beer, as Iron Maiden continues on in their latest with a gigantic gaggle of groups with requisite...
Just over two years ago, I sang solo an Iron Maiden song, Blood Brothers, slowly strummed via my cell phone to provide the instrumental, as the exact moment my dad was laid to his final rest under clay. A few weeks ago, one-man-band professional Jeff Loven, one of the best musicians I have ever heard and one with whom I have sung for 25 years, strummed the favorite Johnny Cash songs his father loved in the background for the last hour his dad had on this earth, the troubles of which Cash so frequently sang. Certainly, one of them was Hurt,...
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...
