The sound of a babies crying is like waking up to a gentle rain for the alt-right.

I watched City Council last night from the peanut gallery - online. There was a record number of people watching, 35 was the highest I saw. 

It was all going well with people asking questions about procedure with valid answers and then a local bar owner showed up with nothing but complaints about how unfair everything is with a few insults about Columbus tossed in just for good measure. And everybody left. 

What a great addition to Columbus.

Tonight the Columbus Public Library has a presentation called PLAY BALL.  (6:30)

Joyce Westerman, Wisconsin Women and the All American Girls Professional Baseball League: Play Ball! 

 Historian Bob Kann offers this talk celebrating the 75th anniversary of the founding of the All American Girls Professional Baseball League, made famous by the movie "A League of Their Own."

 Hear stories of the league’s three Wisconsin teams – the Racine Belles, Kenosha Comets, and Milwaukee Chicks – and their players, women who grew up during the Great Depression and left families, homes, and jobs to follow their dreams and forever change perceptions about female athletes.

 Funded in part by a grant from the Wisconsin Humanities Council, with funds from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the State of Wisconsin. Any views, findings, conclusions or recommendations expressed in this project do not necessarily represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities.

DAMN - I really wanted to go. Sadly it's golf league night!  DAMN IT!

Last night we were watching the Brewer game and all of a sudden Gus is going CRAZY barking - like CRAZY angry!

And then this happened


OH - it will happen to YOU some night.  What a great watch dog. 

*********************************

Weather - we have a cut off low that is bothering Wisconsin.    The cold front went through and attached to the cold front were all of these little storms we have been getting - WELL, one LOW decided it liked the area and broke away.  Now the front as moved on and the LOW has nothing to move it so it sits and spins and for a while now we will have sputtering clouds and and cooler temps and showers.  At LEAST until Saturday.

BUT - I have seen these things sit for a week or more if there is no reason for it to leave.  Still - the weekend is looking good. The next real weather maker shows up Tuesday into Wednesday with storms.

May was a great month for Comic Book sales at brick and mortar establishments.  Highest sales sine November 2016.  Comic books sales have been lagging the last few years.

**********************

Dictator Trump - you know, the guy that is cozy with Russia and North Korea but is pissing off all of our REAL allies. The one putting children in cages . . or  . . sorry  FOX News calls them "chain link walls" . . not cages.  The guy that spent Americas Recession insurance (tax cuts) so when the recession hits  . . . and it WILL hit there is no Plan A.   The guy that defends woman gropers and hates gays. The one starting the REAL trade war that will make prices go up?

WELL -  . . . . . . . . I honestly can't think of where I was going with this . . . . hmmmmm

OH YEA - he claimed that since Germany started to accept migrants that crime in Germany has gone way way up. 

MORE LIES

In reality crime in Germany has gone WAY DOWN since they started accepting migrants.  10% to be exact. Their lowest lever since 1992.

Is there ANYTHING out of that guys mouth that is actually true?

And then there is Jeff Sessions - a homophobic, xenophobic, misogynistic, old, rich, white man, trying to hide behind the cover of religious fervor.  What a complete asshole of a human.  (did I go to far?)

****************

Starting in fall the NYC will stop arresting people for smoking cannabis in the City. A small ticket instead.  Seems 86% of the arrests were either black or Hispanic. White dudes don't smoke?

On that same flavor - Canada DID legalize recreational cannabis for adults.  Hope people have watched my stock zoom up 63% in the last 3 months (CGC - Canopy Growth not a $33.19).  I would not buy in now - seems overpriced.  The goal was to buy in before the law happened as it was a no brainer it would go up with the votes (an actual no brainer that worked LOL).

************************

Caseworkers are struggling to assist young migrant children who were separated from their parents, because the children are often too traumatized or too young to speak with them.  These children may actually be eligible for asylum and visa's except they are too traumatized to give necessary details.

The GOP is creating an new ISIS who hate Americans.  Teach them young right?   It's sickening how the alt-right cares nothing for children.   OH - Wal-Mart is not real happy with Trump - I wonder why!  LOL

The sound of a babies crying is like waking up to a gentle rain for the alt-right.

I have nothing else

  1. It amazes me that a bar owner doesn't know the requirements for keeping a liquor license.

    From municode:
