Who are the Magnificent Seven? Not movie actors, but other heroes such as local teachers, who are given their due today

The assets of being an educator are accessible up on the hill, and you don’t even have to run through the Mill, although you can do so if you like:
— Teachers deserve a (possibly late night) break, so during their appreciation day, on Tuesday, they get a free magnificent seven breakfast at Perkins (although not while they are in class). Lord knows they have put in too many sleepless wee hours grading tests and the like. Not that they don’t like to go out and kick their heals up and party on occasion, but the majority of those I have known have bunched the late-night dancing gig because they are fearful of having the parents of one of their students see them in a situation that could be viewed as compromising. Or they won’t come over and say hello to a journalist like myself for fear of that information going in the newspaper! (No need to worry about that from me, as you have a blank check … so to speak.)
— And when it comes to serving youth, there is this offering from Buffalo Wild Wings, which will benefit young athletes in need through burning your tonsils. A total of $1 will be given to charities such as equipment for youthful athletes when you buy a bottle. Not of beer, but one of their specialty sauces, and a recommendation of their blazin’ sauce has been made. And go across the street to Green Mill for a special of four-cheese breakfast pizza. But you can always quench that hot taste on your lips with a Mountain Dew, which is the focus of a different charitable effort for tending to weather ravaged countries, called Team Rubicon. Call it rebuilding through caffeine and sugar.

Thou protesteth too much?!? That be me. Computer geek? Can’t see. Omniscient? I am not He. If you are reading my attempted Facebook teaser, it was supposed to be All About The Football, or even futbal, in freeze frame or infinite loop, but that Alleged Giant, of social media, clipped off the wording top and bottom, front and back, fore and aft, day and night, (that last part is important), then sent the post anyway, a yammering of names! I tried to fix it, and must own up to my own part, but I was just shown more ads. I...
But seriously, folks … There is a moral to the story, if you read to the very end. Last weekend, we combined a full moon, along with the day and evening entering into it, with a harvest moon and its day-into-night when the applicable seasons change. If you go out on the town, the Hudson downtown, you go less than a block before you see it’s different, and skewed in a crazed direction, even more on Friday — and others reinforced this — the night before the full moon, when the seconds ticked away into Saturday. Bar workers will tell you...
The autumn season, just started officially, is now far enough along to bring the pro football season to an (extra) point where a team as of this weekend could have, conceivably, faced all the other rivals in their division. Depending on which one we’re in. If the division consists of five (teams), they’re still possibly alive, although Black and Blue. So I continue my nightlife writing anew, even though my favorite NFL team was not showing up as faithfully. So, maybe for now just amble over to the apple orchard and pick some (forbidden) fruit … Or: In our case, up in...
Listen to your rock stars, not your politicians. And not those at wholesome or not, rally-around-the-flag hometown fests. Or seen on the city streets and federal freeways when Old Glory is shown in all its glory everywhere. And I walk and talk, and bawk and squawk, gingerly among them all. This as 9/11 is still all the rage, and at times being used not for glorifying the many fallen, but for gain, mostly political, whether in online forums or the hallowed halls of government, or by those who will take the opp to make a racial or culturally based point....
Being a Wisconsinite, west side, I’ve seen a few people I know pop up at the Minnesota State Fair, now and then and again, but not like this time, with a pop-up-stand artist at a talk show.I was with a friend and we sat down in the bleachers, and a guest was brought up that turned out to be — someone who I knew from back in Hudson, an artist with a co-op gallery she owned set up in the middle of the downtown a few years ago. When I had moved to that part of town, I crossed paths...
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...
