220 meg download! WHOO HOO /Brewers/Cubs schedule analyst

I want to congratulate Michael Clark for getting 80% of the votes to become an interim council member for the next 7 months.

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

I went to Charter and exchanged my router and BINGO - 220 meg download.  Yup - actually worked.  SADLY my computer can not do 220 meg download as it runs on gasoline and the components inside of it are too old.  I guess Windows Millennium is not as good as I thought. 

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

Started watching Salvation.  Not bad at all.  I like all the characters which is a bonus.  I liked the concept when I saw the previews last year but with summer shows I like waiting a year or two to see if it has legs.    

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

So so many coyotes last night.  A jet woke them up around 11:30.  Woke me up also as we normally don't hear that noise at night.  The coyotes started howling and Gus?   zzzzzzzzzzzzzz   Slept through all 4 times they howled . . . YET - he heard a dog bark ONCE a mile away and bark bark bark.

I'm too sleepy to think of anything else.  Relatives and golf outings are coming so blogs could be sparse. 

Columbus voters - write in Matt Taylor 37th Assemble - From Matt

I had been looking at this race since late last year. I wasn't interested in a primary and had voluntarily stepped aside when another apparently qualified candidate stated their interest.

While this isn't a typical way to start a campaign, I'm confident as to my ability to adjust and do what is necessary to win.

I'll be happy to reach out to you today to address any concerns you may have. Otherwise I am available on Facebook, Twitter and mattforwisconsin.com

He is running against John Jagler and needs 500 write-ins to get on the ballot


Notice the gerrymandering of the 37th district

Watertown is solid Republican. Trump 54% Clinton 36% 
Waterloo is solid Republican   Trump 54% Clinton 38%
Deforest is solid Democrat  Clinton 70% Trump 23%
Columbus Trump 40% Clinton 51%  Sort of shocking!  ** this does not match from what I saw officially - comes from a small towns website   hmmmmm

The GOP can afford to gerrymander Deforest in because the DNC votes will be absorbed. 

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

The Brewers have a relatively easy schedule the rest of the way.  While the Cubs still have rain outs to make up the Brewers have zero and have 8 days off in the next 40 games.  The stretch leading up to the AS game was 21 games in 20 days and then after the break played 17 days in a row  TOUGH SCHEDULE.

Brewers 40 games - 8 days off
Cubs 43 games  5 days off.

Brewers play the Cubs 8 more times.

Looking at WHO we play - of the 40 games the average winning % is .495 for Brewer opponents and for the Cubs a SLIGHTLY easier .487 winning %

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

WEATHER - Not much to talk about  low 80s pop up thunderstorms Thursday through Sunday . All day rain NEXT Wednesday (at the moment - things slide as you know)

Carry on
