Dear Madame Zoltar

Hello, my noble savages!  How are you?  We finally got some real winter temperatures and I don’t like it.  Brrr.  When it gets this cold, I worry about my car starting and I worry about myself getting started in the morning.  I just want to stay in bed.  Tell me again why we live in Wisconsin.  I forgot.  Brain freeze.

Since our illustrious and magnificent Green Bay Packers are no longer involved in the postseason, I don’t much care who does or doesn’t win the Super Bowl.  The Packers’ season is over and so is my interest.  The commercials are the best part of the game.

This past Saturday, Señor Zanza, Junior, and I went to see the snow sculptures on Monument Square.  What a sight they were!  Simply gorgeous what they do with the snow.  There were ice sculptures, too, in front of businesses on Main and Sixth Streets.  They also were beautiful.  Because of our weather, I think most of the sculptures are still up and relatively unscathed.  Stop by and check them out.

I’ve been reading and hearing a lot about Mr. Mayor Dickert’s efforts to turn over the management of CAR25 to one of his buddies.  Tsk, tsk.  Why always the crooked way, Mr. Mayor?  Why always the con?  You and your cohorts should be ashamed of yourselves.  Bilking a city is not something to be proud of, Mr. Mayor.  Please stop lying to us, please.  Please be a man for once and speak the truth.

I use Mr. Mayor and his lies as a teaching tool for Junior.  Over and over, Mr. Mayor provides an example of what not to do.  Over and over, I point that out to Junior.  In fact, I’ve told Junior that he could live an honorable life simply by doing the opposite of whatever Mr. Mayor does.

Finally, my dears, here is a funny Mr. Jimmy Kimmel video on the cold weather:


Thank you, my sweethearts, for reading my blog this week.  It’s always a pleasure to have you visiting.  I look forward to it every week.

How cold is it?  Find out: madamezoltar@jtirregulars.com.

The temperatures are supposed to rise a little later this week, but it’s January and it’s Wisconsin, so make sure you dress appropriately for the weather.  Watch out for those darned icy spots.  Be careful out there.  Filipendulous!

That is funny about the 50 deg and people freezing.

I was on a business trip to McAllen, TX. Left Racine and it was around 20, landed in McAllen and it was 50,

Those people had gloves, ear muffs, hoodies with coats, winter boot on and I was walking around in a pair of shorts and a polo shirt.

Walked into the at the hotel and the guy two stools down looked and me and said, “You’re from Wisconsin”. I just started laughing and told him I was from Racine. He lived in Milwaukee for 8 years before moving to Texas. He said the people down there think they are going to die when it gets that low…50, gezzzz.

Warmer today, but still brrrrrr!

So far 2013 has not been any kinder than last year. My luck is due to change. Whoever is testing my patience and fortitude is delving into the masochistic realm.

Madame Z.... I am so impressed on the way you are raising Junior and telling him how to act opposite of
the mayor to lead an honorable life.
