Hello, my snowshoe hares!
How are you? What’s on your
mind? I predict that it’s snow, snow,
and snow. Snow gone wild! Sno-B-Gon.
Snow White. Snow, snow, and snow
and wind. In March. I thought we had an understanding that
December, January and February are the months for snow. March, April, and May are for rain. So say it ain’t snow.
Unfortunately, denial never goes good. It’s snow alright, and now it’s beginning to
pile up on streets and in yards. That’s
great for snow forts, but not so much for traffic. Please, please, and please be careful out
there whether you’re on foot or in a vehicle.
Assume that all the other vehicles are driven by homicidal maniacs. They probably are. Oh my.
St. Patrick’s Day is only a week and
a half away, and that can be a very good time.
Just remember not to overdo it, especially the green beer. If you drink too much, you’re not being
“Irish,” you’re just being an ass.
With all the talk that local politicians have spewed about
the need for new businesses in Racine, I am befuddled by what occurred last
Wednesday: “Buffalo Wild Wings stymied by no quorum at City meeting,” http://journaltimes.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/buffalo-wild-wings-stymied-by-no-quorum-at-city-meeting/article_32bea4ee-8152-11e2-a72a-001a4bcf887a.html
Only one member of the Racine Plan Commission
showed up for a meeting with representatives and employees of Buffalo Wild
Wings to discuss Wild Wings’ desire to level the old Lone Star Steakhouse and
put in one of their restaurants. We are
begging for jobs, but our representatives are too busy to attend a meeting for
what appears to be a sure thing. My
blood boils at the infinite arrogance of our local “leaders.” Fie, I say, fie upon you! We know that you don’t give a damn about us,
but you could at least make it look like you’re trying to do some good. To insult prospective business owners and
then to decry the lack of local business seems a little perverse, Mr. Mayor
Dickert. Naughty, naughty, Mr. Mayor,
pants on fire.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope that you found something to like. Or someone.
Peruse, my pilgrims.
Who ordered all this snow? Find out: madamezoltar@jtirregulars.com.
Watch out, my dears, for the slipping and the sliding that
is underway outside. If you fall into a snow
bank, they might not find you until the spring thaw. Take great care in driving. Watch out for people crossing streets and/or
walking on them. Take it slow, take it
easy. Knissomancy!

I am ready for the warm weather. I agree no more snow!
Thant is such a poor representation of Racine to a new business. They invested time and money into this meeting. They were willing to bring new jobs to this city. Something more than sorely needed.
If the mayor had other engagements he could not change, the meeting should have been rescheduled. This is too big of an opportunity to leave to others. With a meeting this size, we couldn't do better than have ONE person show? Heads should roll.
Madame, I hope you are feeling a bit better, yourself. So wonderful to see your column.
How many of those assholes would show up if it was a Hooters?
Good question, SER.
The comment by one of the Wild Wings representative that "Racine is not open for business" says it all. Our mayor and city administrator cost us $200K annually, and between the two of them they still cannot get a simple meeting right. They're utterly useless gold plated boat anchors, dragging the city further and further down.
If one of lying John's pals were involved in this, the restaurant would already be up and running. Dickert is for Dickert and his pals, that's all. The rest of us can go to hell.
