Hey, this is my blog. I started it back in 1996. Yeah, that long ago. I have torn down and rebuilt this site several times over the years. And in so doing, I've decided to remove old and outdated articles. I don't seem to get around to writing often, but when I do, it's usually about faith or politics.
If you happen to like what I write, cool. If not, cool.

Last year, he issued a stay-at-home order which was then overturned by the Wisconsin Supreme Court because Evers went beyond his authority according to our constitution. At the time, one justice described Evers' order as "the very definition of tyranny."

There's a restaurant on the east side of town that, for many years, was like your typical bar and grill. You could get a good burger or a steak, a beer, you name it. Before or after dinner you could pony up to the bar for a cocktail. I've been there many times. Then a couple of years ago, the owners decided to change it to a Japanese restaurant. I don't eat Japanese food, so I no longer go there. It's not a protest or a boycott. They just changed their product, and I'm no longer part of their target audience.
