Hello, my thawing throngs!
How are you? Spring may have
sprung. The weather has been beautiful
the past couple of days. I actually saw
the sun. I thought maybe it had burned out.
The weather extremes that have affected the world are worrisome. I sincerely hope that we have a nice
summer. I know it has to get hot on some
days, but moderation is the key. With
the ozone layer depleting, the sun is like a microwave for your skin. Just lard on some sun block with an SPF of
1,000 or higher and you’re good to go outdoors.
Another sign of spring is bicyclists on the streets (and
sidewalks).
If you drive, please be very
careful around bicycles.
Although
they’re supposed to be subject to the same rules of the road as motor vehicles, the reality is that most of them do whatever they wish.
There is no law enforcement regarding
bicycles in Racine.
It is up to drivers to stay alert.
Always expect the unexpected.
Bicyclists often ignore stop signs, ride on the
sidewalk, ride against traffic, and ride at night with no lights.
The other day, I was driving through an
intersection when a man on a bicycle, riding against traffic, with no hands on
the handlebars, and headphones on his head, cut directly in front of me.
I locked my brakes.
The man flipped me the bird.
Oh, that makes me so angry.
Racine
rudeness is everywhere.
My congratulations to Mr. Mayor Dickert for the complete
whitewash of the ethics complaints against him and others. You have to be darn smart to manage all the
scams that he does and get away with them.
When he becomes President of the United
States, we can say that we knew him
when. If he doesn’t go to prison first.
With the warmer weather also comes more parties for Racine. This Friday is a First Friday downtown. Saturday, May 4th, is Kiwanis
Pancake Day at Festival Hall. In Festival
Park, the Lakefront Artists Fair
will be held concurrently with Pancake Day. Those are just the big things that I know
about. I’m sure there’s more going on,
and there will be even more as the season progresses. Racine
is a party town, and getting drunk is the recommended way to achieve
enlightenment. Party hearty, Racine!
Finally, my dears, I just learned of a website devoted to Racine’s
nightlife: RacineNightOut.com,
http://www.racinenightout.com/ That site has a link on the City of Racine
homepage, so I’m sure it’s well connected.
Thank you for visiting my blog today. I enjoy the company and companionship. You light up my life.
Enjoy this glorious weather, my friends. We’ve been deprived so long that anything
above 50 degrees calls for a celebration.
Get them old bones moving and have some fun. Psychorrhagy!
Of course, Sunday,
May 12, 2013 is the most important day of the year: Mother’s Day. Take extra good care of your mother on that
day. Get her flowers or candy, or a new Jaguar. Try carrying her around
for nine months and see how you like it.
You should lavish love and praise and money on your mom every day, but
even more so on Mother’s Day. Do you understand
that, Junior? Get the message, Señor
Zanza?
