"Does the Kilties Brew Fest now have competition?"

From RacineUncovered.org:

"It appears that another national beer fest is sneaking into Racine. Based on their website. Top of the Hops Beer Festival plans on holding a beer fest on May 12 and in no place other than Festival Hall. It appears that the Kilties Brew Fest has national competition coming to Racine. Noted on their website is glassware, which was frowned upon and not allowed at Festival Hall. More on this as it develops.
In case you are wondering what this event is here is the website.


What's going on? I don't know. They don't tell me.

I wouldn't say they are "sneaking into Racine," it appears that it is an open and a blatant statement to the Kilties. Why does Racine undermine its own, time and time again? The sad thing is that we allow it to happen, over and over again.

Years back we had investors who wanted to open a micro brew/pub restaurant in an old building along the river. We aren't talking just another dive tavern or bar... Milwaukee has some fantastic micro brew houses, that are very popular and are thriving. What happened, why did Racine not let this go forward? Everything is so political, so 'good old boy' entrenched... it all depends on who you are, who it will bring competition to, and if "they" like you.

This is really sad. I expect it to get a lot of attention. I hope the Kilties won't let this slide quietly.

Does this have anything to do with the Kilties, or is it a desperate attempt for Venu-works to get something going at Festival Hall?

Who's the greater fool - property owners of Racine, or Mayor dickert?

Turns off streetlights - Resident demand to pay extra for them.

Domestic Partner Benefits -Residents forced to pay more $$$. Take the sexuality out- it's all about Financial Gain - NOTHING ELSE. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recognition_of_same-sex_unions_in_Wisconsin

Do you even KNOW what you are paying for at Festival Hall - or the projects/costs coming up?
Check out page 233 of the 2012 Adopted budget - bet your jaw drops.

Let me INFROM YOU - Festival Hall does not exist to make $$$ for the City. It is a NEVER-ENDING project that rewards connected players with work at City Haul $$$. Another wealth-transfer scheme.

Dickerts spent almost $400,000 on City Hall Bathrooms.

Dickert is about to give his friend Micah Waters millions of taxpayer dollars.

Dickert is a master manipulator who has you begging to raise taxes - and you love every minute of it.

Once you can get you mind out of the sexual aspect of it - you'll discover, with some reearch - SEXUALITY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

It is another wealth-transfer mechanism and increases the size/scope of government.

Truly - Most people are stupid - and government loves it that way.

Government is the greatest con game ever. It's a marvel when it's played well, and hideous when conducted by greedy grubs.

More information today from the Local Shopper:

"the organizer of a new city beer fest at Festival Park, are looking forward to, as is the organizer of the county’s annual home brew competition, which is held the same week as the Great Lakes Brew Fest."

Of course, it's a nationwide out of State company: "
Also new this year, Festival Park will be holding another beer festival in May called Top of the Hops Beer Festival.

It will include 150-plus beers, music, games, beer seminars and — as long as it’s legal — home brews too, said Jay Wilson, the director of marketing for Red Mountain Entertainment, the Alabama-based company that helps organize festivals, concerts and events including the Racine festival."


Racine clearly has a Mayor that hates the people of Racine, Racine property owners and all that is good, sound and wholesome.

They stole Tricky Dicky from me.

Allowed to log in - but not comment!

LOL.

That's because Racine elected officials can't handle the truth!

But we have Django!

"Django is a lone and mysterious gunfighter who drags around a coffin which contains a powerful machine gun. Django remarks at one point that the "person" in the coffin is actually called Django. He is a skilled gunfighter, who displays the ability to shoot without looking."

His nemesis is the Dasterdly Dickert - Who lies without thinking!

It really would be a full time effort to unravel the dastardly deeds of lying John and company. I can't think of a reason to do it unless I was running for mayor myself. I'm not. If someone I trusted was in the running, though, I could put more effort into it.

At the end of that Django movie, the gold is gone, Django's hands have been crushed, his girlfriend is shot, and everyone else is dead. Some hero.
