A tad bit groggy today as I watched the entire World Series game last night. In fact I have watched almost every inning (City council stole a few innings) of one of the Greatest World Series ever. This is the first time since 1970 that 2 teams with 100 wins have played against each other and one of the few times both teams are the best in their league.
It's been awesome.
Meanwhile - Giannis Antetokounmpo had his 6th amazing game in a row for the Bucks with another double double and the Bucks are 4-2 against some pretty good teams so far. Giannis now has the best first 6 games of the season of any player since 1970 when Game Score was invented.
While the rest of the league is in love with 3 point shooters but bucks have a lot of big big guys around the basket. It's like Wisconsin Football. Bust big dudes with really long arms. Giannis has a 7 foot wing span.

In other news - American farmers just lost $18 Billion (18,000,000,000) in trade as Mexico just gave the American GOP a big fat finger and will now purchase 100% of their corn, rice and wheat from Argentina duty free in exchange for selling their cars to Argentina duty free. Seems they don't want to pay for the GOP sponsored wall. Sucks to be an American farmer under the GOP regime. They care very little abort the middle class. Give the rich more money so they can trickle it down (while saving 80% of themselves (at least they have a strategy no matter how flawed it is).

Anybody notice the costumes this Halloween? they were amazing? People are trying to find bright spots in these times of discourse.

Constellation Brands who distribute Corona purchased 9.9% of Canopy Growth Corp, a marijuana company based in Canada which is now the largest publicly traded cannabis company in the world.
Speaking of cannabis - 64% of Democrats, 54% Independents and 49% of Republicans now feel cannabis should be legal. The one thing the left and the right agree on. Yet our government is going the totally opposite direction. Free the drunk drivers even if caught 5 times because they are not that big of a threat to society but jail as many cannabis smokers as you find . . legally.

Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority cancelled a $300 million the American Government gave to TWO guys (who gave a LOT to the Trump campaign) to fix the Puerto Rico power grid problem.
It seems NOBODY knows who gave them the contract - that paperwork seems to have been lost. Weird how that happens. In a time when you can record EVERYTHING, so many documents get lost in our government now.

My forecast for the downtown small celebration. Sucked. Yea - I COULD claim victory as it was 51 degrees Friday morning at 12:01 but . . . . everybody sucked on that forecast. I did get the "windy' correct. it's tough making a forecast 10 days in advance.
After Tuesday expect 6 days of drizzle and clouds for about week. Temps bouncing between 45 and 50 for 6 days. Maybe Sunday warmer.
OH OH - should be interesting where The Badgers show up in the rankings.
Cheers
