Four for Fridays!
Good morning everyone I hope you had fun watching the trick or treaters in your neighborhood. We had a lot of fun with the Grandkids over the weekend. It was so nice to have them here the weekend of my birthday. Here are your questions.
1) Have you gone in the stores and already last week the had the Christmas trees up?
2) Do you think the stores should have them up this early?
3) When do you think the stores should have any Christmas stuff out?
4) So you do any Christmas shopping this early?
Have a great weekend!

Dear Madame Zoltar
By the way, happy Halloween. I'm giving away Milky Way bars in the junior size. You have to be a child, though. I'm not feeding some juvenile delinquents. Junior is dressing up as a zombie to answer the door. What fun.
The Green Bay Packers. Ty Montgomery. Need I say more? What the (expletive deleted) is he doing making a "judgment call" (his words)? He was told to take a knee if the ball made it into the end zone. Then Aaron Rodgers could stage one of those last-minute comebacks he's become known for. But no. Next year Ty is a free agent. Goodbye, Ty.
Here are the standings from the Irregular Football league:
My team is still in second place. How does Mr.hale-bopp collect so many points? Unfortunately, The Mighty Bears have dropped another position, behind Racine Irregulars. Oh my. Mr. OrbsCorbs' team is lost down where the swamp gas collects.
Speaking of swamp gas, have you heard any of the bile that Mr. Trump is spewing? He lies like a rug. Sooner or later, his lies are going to get him into deep trouble. Let's just hope he doesn't take us with him. I'd love to start a Dump Trump campaign, but I'm too busy. I find it really ridiculous that Trump is president. Hilary had three million more votes than him, but the electoral college was probably bribed to elect Trump. What do we even vote for if the electoral college is going to ignore us? Not that Hilary is any great shakes. I hope we get a strong candidate in the next preswidential election.
Or maybe the Rusians will make our choice for us. How the heck can they hack voting machines from way over there? How do they access them? Are they online? Can we mess with their elections? If so, please do so.
Thank you everybody for reading my blog today. I love my fans. They give me the courage to continue.

Get out and enjoy the weather and the view. Soon enough it will be covered in s-word. Then the s-word gets dirty and looks terrible. I hate winter.

Chickenhawk:
A chickenhawk or chicken hawk is slang used in American
and British gay culture to denote older males who prefer younger males
for partners, who may less often be called "chickens",[1] i.e., the prey of the chickenhawk.[2] Other variations include chicken queen[3] and chicken plucker.[2]
It is sometimes used as a disparaging vulgarity within the LGBT community, or seen as a slur against people in that community. The label can be applied to a man who seeks partners with the look of someone young, regardless of their target's age.[4][5]
"Chickenhawk" also indicates a man who uses underage boys for his sexual pleasure. The usage was publicized by members of the controversial group NAMBLA in the 1994 documentary film Chicken Hawk: Men Who Love Boys,[6][7] although Time magazine reported it in this sense in 1975.[3]

Where dips the rocky highland
Of Sleuth Wood in the lake,
There lies a leafy island
Where flapping herons wake
The drowsy water rats;
There we’ve hid our faery vats,
Full of berrys
And of reddest stolen cherries.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world’s more full of weeping than you can understand.
Where the wave of moonlight glosses
The dim gray sands with light,
Far off by furthest Rosses
We foot it all the night,
Weaving olden dances
Mingling hands and mingling glances
Till the moon has taken flight;
To and fro we leap
And chase the frothy bubbles,
While the world is full of troubles
And anxious in its sleep.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world’s more full of weeping than you can understand.
Where the wandering water gushes
From the hills above Glen-Car,
In pools among the rushes
That scarce could bathe a star,
We seek for slumbering trout
And whispering in their ears
Give them unquiet dreams;
Leaning softly out
From ferns that drop their tears
Over the young streams.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world’s more full of weeping than you can understand.
Away with us she’s going,
The solemn-eyed:
She’ll hear no more the lowing
Of the calves on the warm hillside
Or the kettle on the hob
Sing peace into her breast,
Or see the brown mice bob
Round and round the oatmeal chest.
For she comes, the human child,
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world’s more full of weeping than she can understand.To Martha.
(Hey, this is going late but good and I know you got to go, but thanks for letting us bend your ear, ’cause I’m Art Kumbalek and I told you so.)

Dolphins forced to simplify calls due to human noise pollution in the oceans
As a result of noisy ship engines and the racket of ocean mining, bottlenose dolphins have slowly reducing the complexity and changing the frequency of their calls. According to new research from the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science and published in the journal Biology Letters, "the noise-induced simplification of dolphin whistles may reduce the information content in these acoustic signals and decrease effective communication, parent–offspring proximity or group cohesion." From YaleEnvironment360:
“It’s kind of like trying to answer a question in a noisy bar and after repeated attempts to be heard, you just give the shortest answer possible,” Bailey said. “Dolphins simplified their calls to counter the masking effects of vessel noise.”
Dolphins are highly social animals and use their calls to stay together as a group, talk as they feed, and call out their names when they meet new members of their species. Each animal has a distinctive whistle, which typically uses complex sound patterns with variations in pitch and frequency.

Marijuana Smell Lawsuit That Could Endanger Colorado Pot Biz Goes to Trial
| October 29, 2018 | 6:30am
A lawsuit filed by two Colorado landowners who claim that a nearby marijuana grow has reduced their property values in part because the smell makes horseback riding less pleasant goes
to trial in Denver federal court today. And the repercussions of the
suit's strategy, based on federal racketeering laws, could have
far-reaching effects on the cannabis industry in Colorado and beyond.
The case was filed in February 2015 by Safe Streets Alliance,
a national anti-pot group, on behalf of two members, Phillis Windy Hope
Reilly and Michael P. Reilly. Early on, the effort didn't seem
particularly professional: Note that the organization misspelled marijuana as "marajuana" in its initial press release on the subject. But SSA's success in court over the past three years-plus has overcome this gaffe.
I love the smell of raw reefer. If I could, I'd make a cologne out of it.
Milwaukee County judge under fire for detaining defense lawyer, who wound up shackled
From JSOnline:

Backlash could continue Monday over a
Milwaukee County judge's decision to briefly jail an assistant public
defender Friday over a perceived lack of respect and decorum.
News
of the incident spread quickly among the criminal defense bar via
social media on the weekend and prompted a strong response from the
State Public Defender's office spokesman, Randy Kraft.
"The
fact that our attorney was taken into custody, handcuffed, and
belly-chained for doing his job is unacceptable," Kraft said in an
emailed statement.
"The impact on our attorney and
his client is of utmost concern to this agency. The message this action
sends to our attorneys, whose jobs are to be zealous advocates for the
rights of their clients, undercuts a basic tenet of our justice system."
Reached
over the weekend, Circuit Judge David Borowski declined to discuss the
still-pending case but suggested a transcript of the exchange that led
to the lawyer's detention would be available Monday.
Halloween Pictures!
I really haven't been out taking Halloween pictures this year. I have some to share with you that we have taken. Also this past weekend we had the Grandkids I will share there pictures too.

The Foxconn Grand Illusion
Dear Board of County Supervisors,
This quote from the JT says it all....
“There are more questions than answers right now,” said Haas.
“Right now, if they don’t even know what they want to make … they don’t
really know what to tell me.
The only thing Governor Scott Walker and the Republican Party of WI
desires is for the citizens of SE Wisconsin to continue voting for the
Republican Criminals who have turned a blind eye to the plight of the
Common Citizen and have offered them the false hope of future employment
at a fraction of the wages and benefits which the Politicos who rule SE
WI reward themselves with!
“There are more questions than answers right now,” said Haas. “Right now, if they don’t even know what they want to make … they don’t really know what to tell me.”

Please join Cindy and I is JUST SAYING NO to allowing Wisconsin’s very own Gang of Four, Governor Scott Walker, Racine County Executive Jonathan Delagrave, City of Racine Mayor Cory Mason & MTP President David DeGroot to violate the Wisconsin Constitution (and their Oath of Office) by granting special rights to Corporate interests, stealing people’s property, destroying multi-generational Farms alongside an entire long established Community, loosening environmental protections, permitting heavy metals water pollution, instituting slave labor wages, providing taxpayer subsidies to multi-billionaire Corporations, and politician overreach.

Great Deal on the Journal Times
Welcome to The Pink Swastika 5th (Internet) Edition
It has been several years since we published the fourth edition of
this book. In that time we have accumulated a substantial amount of
new documentation supporting our thesis that the Nazi Party
was conceived, organized and controlled throughout its short history by
masculine-oriented male homosexuals who hid their sexual proclivities
from the public, in part by publicly persecuting one group of
their political enemies: out-of-the-closet effeminate-oriented
homosexuals aligned with the German Communist Party.
During that same time, our detractors, mostly "gay" political activists, have increased their attacks on the book, primarily by ridiculing its premise, but occasionally by challenging certain facts or sources. They are rightly concerned that this book threatens their long-standing public-relations strategy of posing as victims to win public support for their political agenda.
When the first edition of The Pink Swastika was published in 1995, the homosexual community was heavily invested in a campaign to equate homosexuals with Jews as Nazi victims in order to exploit the Holocaust for their political advantage. The primary symbol of their movement at that time was the inverted pink triangle, which had been used by the Nazis to identify homosexuals interned in German work camps during the Third Reich, and it was common to hear "gay" activists talk about "the Gay Holocaust."
The Pink Swastika was written to challenge that campaign. Because, while there certainly were some homosexual victims of the Nazi regime, and a record of harsh public condemnation of homosexuality by the Nazi Party, the true, complete story of homosexuality in Nazi and pre-Nazi Germany does not in the least help the "gay" cause.
If The Pink Swastika were the "pack of lies" the homosexual movement claims it is, the book would not have influenced their "Gay Holocaust" strategy in the smallest degree. It would have been easy to discredit and disregard. Instead, how did the "gay" leaders respond to its challenge? They stopped talking about the Nazis almost entirely and changed their symbol from the pink triangle to the rainbow flag.
We prevailed in our campaign. And our research was implicitly vindicated. However, the attacks continued and now various, ostensibly non-homosexual surrogates have taken up the "gay" effort to discredit the book.
This edition of The Pink Swastika is designed to once-and-for-all silence the critics by emphasizing the strength of our documentation. The Internet is particularly helpful in this task because we can provide direct links to supporting documents and websites, pictures, graphics, video clips and other resources right alongside the text in an interactive format.
We hope you find The Pink Swastika: Homosexuality in the Nazi Party 5th (Internet) Edition useful and informative.

Former Paul Ryan Challenger Arrested In Radioactive Murder Plot
by
Tyler Durden
Thu, 10/25/2018 - 18:40
A Madison, Wisconsin man who ran for Congress in 2012 against House
Speaker Paul Ryan has been accused of trying to acquire a lethal dose of
radioactive material over the internet in order to murder an unnamed
individual.
 |
| The FBI announced that Jeremy Ryan, 30, was arrested on Wednesday in Black Earth, WI. Court documents reveal that he attempted to purchase the radioactive material in March and again in October. He faces a maximum term of life in prison. |
The Milwaukee FBI and Chicago FBI's Hazardous Evidence Response team
executed a search warrant on Ryan's residence but did not find any
threat to the public, according to a report.
Ryan was dubbed "Segway Jeremy" for riding around the Wisconsin State Capitol during 2011 protests
against Governor Scott Walker. In 2018, he attempted a Congressional
run to replace US Rep. Paul Ryan, losing in the primary to Bryan Steil.
Bercher: Watching Racine city government
Thanks for your Letteney-Weidner Feud Perspective. I depend on the
Journal Times to inform me what our Racine City government is up to.
Your perspective clarified what is known but creates a deep suspicion
that our government must be up to something underhanded if it is so
worried about information becoming public as no litigation, labor issues
or other protected information is at risk.

1) Do you get the flu shot every year?
2) If you do not why?
3) Do you get the flu very easily?
4) If you get the flu how long does it take you to get better?
Have a great weekend!

A Better Mount Pleasant Sends:
Remember our Sturtevant property in which the village paid nearly 7
times fair market value from a guy who just happened to have been a
former client of village attorney Alan Marcuvitz - and together they
settled a $5 million eminent domain lawsuit down in Kenosha about a
decade ago?
Weeks ago, when it first came up, Trustee Gary Feest asked for the official appraisal of the property prepared by the village and his request was denied. They refused to show it to him.
We filed an open records request for the appraisal on October 3rd - given that the property sale was complete and the appraisal is a public document.

We filed an open records request for the appraisal on October 3rd - given that the property sale was complete and the appraisal is a public document.
Our request was also denied. Here is the reason attorney Chris Smith stated for the denial:
"Whether public inspection should be allowed or denied depends entirely on a balancing of the public's "right to know," as against the need to protect the public interest. In way of illustration, I cite the example of where a particular project may involve numerous acquisitions. Public inspection of the records pertaining to closed transactions may seriously hinder future negotiations on parcels yet to be acquired within the particular project."
In other words, if the appraisal doesn't actually support a negotiated settlement of 7 times fair market value, people who are being forced to settle for 1.4 times fair market value might have legal grounds to sue us.
Nothing to see here folks...nothing to see.

Copy
Dear City of Racine Alderpersons,
Concerning the 5 Administrative positions requested by Mayor Cory Mason in the Proposed 2019 Budget- at a cost of $500K Plus -
NOT ONE IS NEEDED.
From the JT:
“The big priority for this position is to get at some structural
inequalities in this community,” said Mason. “There’s nobody tasked with
doing that now.”
Here are the biggest structural inequalities in this Community:
1.
The lowball property assessment on the Cory and Rebecca Mason Lakefront
property and their refusal to pay their fair share while LOOTING
private Businesses and hardworking privately employed Taxpayers for
their profit and gain.
For a discussion, see:
2.
The $20,000,000 + that taxpayers are forced to spend on
Retiree/Employee Healthcare in one of the biggest giveaways of the 20th C
- as City Employees received *FREE HEALTHCARE* for Life - all at
taxpayer expense - and well before advanced, and costly treatments had
become available. It is grossly UNFAIR to burden the young of Racine
with these unconscionable costs. The gross injustice must end!
3.
Bloated salaries and tax free benefit packages: In Racine City Hall,
$100,000 + salaries are the order of the day - accompanied by a $25,000 +
Fringe package, which at times exceeds $40,000.
4.
Allowing City employees to live outside the taxing authority of City of
Racine - taking money from Residents and absconding to tax havens. This
predatory practice needs to be ended - or such employees need to be
subject to a remote location tax surcharge to recoup lost monies.
How bad is it?
Just review the list of City of Racine delinquent Taxpayers and Businesses!
From WI DOR:
Pages, and pages, and pages of failed City of Racine Businesses and Individuals!
See some you might recognize?
How about:
Kenneth L. Brown - Eye Openerz - 411 Main Street - $51,038.06 in arrears.
TBG's of Racine - 1814 Taylor Ave - $23,649.95 in arrears.
Velasques & Sons Muffler - 915 Washington Ave - $249,915.54 in arrears
Roberts Roost - 600 6th St. - $22,093.25 in arrears.
Curmedgeon's Pub & Grill LLC - 1413 Silent Sundat C - $5,638.70 in arrears
and finally -
Dolce Vita - 2122 N. Main Street - $117,784.34 in arrears.
The
only answer is to REJECT Mayor Cory Mason's OUTRAGEOUS and BLOATED!
Proposed 2019 Budget - eliminate the 5 unnecessary positions he has
added to the budget - end the *FREE* healthcare for life benefit - and
cut salaries/benefits by 25% across the board.
Sincerely,
Tim & Cindy
Dear Madame Zoltar
The Green Bay Packers had a bye week. That's good for the injury-prone Aaron Rodgers, the living, breathing multi-million dollar disaster. The Packers arre paying the most for their quarterback and he can't even make it to the job half the time. We're number one in quarterback reimbursement. But we're not number one in the league. How come?
Here are the standings from the Irregular Football League:
Oh my. Look who has slipped into second place. After I overcome the Half-Astrophysicists, I'll be queen of the league.
I see that a new developer is going to take on the former Walker Mfg. site. They call it "Harborside." Personally, I prefer Pointe Blooey. They're talking about a mixed-use plan for the site, with apartments at "market rate." I'll believe it when I see it. Developers almost always cannot resist the lure of government money if they put in subsidized housing. That is NOT what the neighborhood needs. Keep it classy and lift the rest of the neighborhood. I can't wait to see it.
On the national scene, the Honduran migrant caravan continues to grow and continues toward the U.S. What can anyone do about it? Shoot them? What will it be like when they meet the wall? What is Trump (rhymes with rump) gonna do? Cutting funds to Latin American states just assures a bigger caravan.
Trump (rhymes with dump) keeps foaming at the mouth about his enemies, real or perceived. He loves being the center of attention. Government by Twitter. Who'd a thunk it? What a strange time to be alive. The planet is convulsing in its death throes and our Nero (rhymes with zero) fiddles around.
Ptooie! All this Trump (rhymes with pump) talk has left a bad taste in my mouth. Impeachment is the only thing that would clean it up.
I love my readers and thank you for allowing mre to entertain you.

A Better Mount Pleasant Sends;
The
covert actions of the village and village trustees denied residents
their right to due process - to appeal and discuss legal actions taken
against them with elected officials.
That this began the day after the new regime of trustees was sworn in tells you everything you need to know about how unethical and corrupt Mt. Pleasant has become.
Please share.

Journal Times editorial: Letteney-Weidner feud shrouded in secrecy
Secrecy in government, compounded by
court-ordered secrecy, gives rise to speculation and rumor. That never
serves the public interest.
The now long-running feud between City Attorney Scott Letteney and Racine Alderman Sandy Weidner illustrates that very well. In a circuitous dispute that began more than a year ago, the city attorney last August sought an ethics violation sanction against the alderman — and two other as yet unnamed aldermen — for allegedly sharing confidential or privileged communications from his office with constituents

Foxconn Brazil
Dear Board of County Supervisors,
Dazed and Confused Politicians in SE Wisconsin simply don’t
understand that Foxconn is in the business of making money, while
keeping their labor costs low, so profits are maximized. Politicians
never have to worry about labor costs or selling price points because
they have the power of taxation – imposing the collection of taxes at
the point of a gun, versus the private sector, which must sell consumers
a manufactured product. Which in Wisconsin Foxconn’s case is a LCD TV.
SE Wisconsin residents need to be particularly concerned as Foxconn has recently decided to discontinue it’s $12 Billion investment in Brazil!
See the article:

From the article:
"Foxconn is set to cease its manufacturing activities in Brazil, according to sources close to the Taiwanese company.
The company's staff have been working on shutting down the facility located in JundiaÃ, a city in the metropolitan region of São Paulo, and assisting on the deactivation and sale of machinery, according to Brazilian business magazine IstoÉDinheiro.
Foxconn had a second facility in the same business park, which is already empty. The idea is to only keep a limited local set-up intended for parts replacement and maintenance, according to the article.

The news Foxconn is stopping its manufacturing activities in Brazil
is a far cry from all the noise the firm caused a few years ago: back in
2011, the company had pledged to invest $12bn in the country and create
100,000 local jobs within six years.
However, the promises soon proved hard to keep: the company wanted the Brazilian government to come up with 30 percent of the cash, as well as a private investor – both failed to materialize.
As well as the economic instability that the Brazilian economy, it is also rumored that other factors influencing the decision include the productivity of the local workforce – which at its peak reached about 2,500 workers – which Foxconn considers to be low when compared to its main manufacturing operations."
I hope that the County Board has an emergency "Plan B" to deal with the financial ruin which will more assuredly strike Racine County if the Foxconn miracle doesn't work out as advertised by Politicians.
Please join Cindy and I is JUST SAYING NO to allowing Governor Scott Walker, Representatives Robin Vos, Cory Mason & MTP President David DeGroot to violate the Wisconsin Constitution (and their Oath of Office) by granting special rights to Corporate interests, stealing people’s property, destroying multi-generational Farms alongside an entire long established Community, loosening environmental protections, permitting heavy metals water pollution, instituting slave labor wages, providing taxpayer subsidies to multi-billionaire Corporations, and politician overreach.
Sincerely,
Tim & Cindy
