Sign zee papers!! CAN WALKER

Looking for a place to get rid of corrupt republicans? Go to the old Roberts Small Engine building at 315 E. James St and you can recall Walker, Kleefisch and Dr. Evil himself Scott Fitzgerald. A "Can Walker" food drive in conjunction with the petition signing. People can bring in a canned food donation for the Columbus/Fall River food pantry.

The place will be open until January.

I tell you - I really truly think Republicans IN government are stupid. I do not believe citizen republicans are that way and I actually agree with them on some issues but the ones that go into politics and sign a pledge to never EVER raise taxes no matter WHAT? Even if America goes to war or suffers a catastrophic event, they pledge to NEVER raise taxes. 90% of Republicans have signed this oath.

Know what happens if they go back on their word? They will no longer be in office as they will have millions of dollars pumped into their tea party opponents campaign. So basically Republicans IN GOVERNMENT can not actually think for themselves.

Frey Carriage Company made JSOnilne last week. Congrats Todd.

I gotta laufe at some of the comments of the article  

"Since Scooter is bent on taking us all back to the dark ages with him, these guys should be real busy."

The article can be found here

Frey Carriage Co. fills demand for horse-drawn carriages

And in case some of you do not remember what a horse looks like here is a photo I took of one of those beasts!

This is a horse

I might have to write another letter to the editor soon.  Seems the letters are all "Thank You" and so forth.  No one wants to complain. For one thing so many people want opposite side parking solution in winter in Columbus but it seems the City Counsel and the people running Columbus think the citizens are not bright enough to handle it.    This is a real problem and they really don't give a crap.  time to start making waves.

Hydro Street Brewing is getting closer to opening.  The big stumbling block has been getting a hood installed.  The local contractor that was hired to install it just never showed up.  Guess he did not really need a job after all.   


On December 15th the Columbus Business Roundtable will take  place in Hydro Street.  I do have one thing to say about that LAST Round Table.   They advertised a "Continental Breakfast"  but there was no juice.  Doesn't a continental breakfast have to have juice?  Otherwise it's just coffee and rolls!  HEY - just keeping everyone honest here!

Driving back from Sweep Gallery in Lake Mills I captured this sunset.

Two Minnesota mechanical engineers were standing at the base of a flagpole, looking up.

A woman walks by and asks what they were doing.

"Ve're supposed to find da height of da flagpole," said Sven, "but ve don't haff a ladder."

The woman took a wrench from her purse, loosened a few bolts, and laid the pole down.

Then she took a tape measure from her pocketbook, took a measurement,

announced, "Eighteen feet, six inches," and walked away.

Ole shook his head and laughed. "Ain't dat just like a voman! Ve ask for da height and she gives us da length!"

Sven and Ole are currently serving in the United States Senate.

Have a great Monday!

  1. You know, if others have your attitude about Walker, no one will ever accomplish anything. I wonder which 7000 people would like to give up their job to make the changes you are suggesting? Have you looked at any of the school districts stats on their budgets? Is it so awful for state employees to pay SOMETHING towards their pensions and insurance? And as far as the "occupiers" are concerned, most are the spoiled brats of the super wealthy people you all seem to hate. How ironic is that?

  2. Charlotte, I'd like to see the actual facts behind your statements. Most public employees would have preferred the layoffs as opposed to the cuts. Public employees for years accepted no wage increases to hold on to thos benefits. Private sector employees lost their employees but held onto their pay. Now public employees are paid on average 20% less than their private peer with similar benefits. From this point forward the public sector will have a very hard time competing for jobs so you will get what you pay for. I know this as I worked both as a private contract to the state as well as a state employee. I also haveleft public service for the private sector gold.
