Dear Madame Zoltar

Hello, my precious ducks! How are you?  We’re still lingering in cool summer mode.  Maybe that’s it.  Maybe it’s as warm as it’s going to get this summer.  I can live with this.  I hope that the lower temperatures are not indicative of a colder winter.  Arctic blasts can be deadly.  A nice, “normal” climate is all that I ask for.  Is that so difficult?  Apparently, yes.

I never made it to the County Fair and I doubt that I’ll make it to the State Fair.  (Is that still going on?)  It seems like each day fills with tasks that I can’t complete.   I am behind before I even begin.  It can be discouraging.

I read in the Journal Times that the petitions for the recall of Mr. Alderman Kaplan were short by four signatures.  Was there ever any doubt?  You don’t have to be a fortune teller to know which way the wind blows in Racine.  Now, Mr. Alderman will consider those who signed the petitions to be his enemies.  More division, more strife, more adversarial politics.  That’s been the hallmark of the Becker-Dickert years.

I also read in the paper that Dino’s Restaurant may rise again.  That would be nice.  I’ve put my blessing on Dino’s.  Let’s hope that does the trick.  Dino’s has hosted numerous fundraisers for various causes.  It’s time that someone helps them out.

Have you purchased your Powerball ticket yet?  I don’t play, of course, because of my psychic powers.  It wouldn’t be right to use my gifts for monetary gain.  Good luck to all you players.  May the money be with you.

Junior has a solution for our low lake levels.  He says to take all of our water hoses and connect them down to the lake.  Then everybody turns on their water and fills the lake back up.  Thank you, dear, for your contribution.  Please stay in school and study real hard.  Maybe you can be an alderman someday.

Finally, my friends, on a very serious note, I must ask, “How are people supposed to see the Packer preseason game this Friday?”  Two monstrous corporations dicker over peanuts, so the faithful fans are deprived of a Packer game.  Greed kills.

Thank you, everyone, for stopping by to log my blog.  I enjoy visits and love visitors.  I appreciate your time and input.  Please come again.

Special hats for the downtown clique?  madamezoltar@jtirregulars.com

Please continue to enjoy the days and nights.  Have fun.  Keep your eyes open for kids or bicyclists that dart out in front of you.  Keep your heart open for love.   Panjandrum!
