Last Day In May Dispatches

- More on the most recent accident involving Waukesha West students. A billion traffic lights (like those on Barstow Street) will not save people from poor judgement.
- The accident at the Fox River sounds a lot more complicated than I originally thought. I’m expecting a call for more traffic lights on the corners of Madison and Clinton Streets.
- Allison Bussler’s boss … um … you know who I mean … Paul’s kid … anyway, he’s supporting a bill (at Allison’s urging, no doubt) which would take insurance benefits out of collective bargaining with the the evil teachers union, for one.

- Human beings like balance in life. I can understand why the family would want something to compensate them for the loss of their loved one. That doesn’t make this decision fair, the deputy was just doing his job.
- Same thing in this case. The truck driver was just trying to make a living. He wasn’t impaired, he was just trying to do his job. But our society demands balance.
- So with that being said, what’s the balancing penalty for one of the world’s biggest spammers? I think water boarding would be appropriate.
- Goldmans Department Store is closing. It’s some place I always intended to visit, but never did. It still makes a profit, according to its owners. Maybe someone will see that and buy the place.
- Diamond Jim Doyle wants to increase spending on the UW system by $225,000,000.00. Guess where he’s going to get the money.
- Junior McGee’s lawyers are proposing the ebonics defense for their client.
- The price of milk is set to skyrocket. I look at it the same way as I look at the Indian casinos: both are owed some good times to balance past bad ones. Balance is the theme for the day.
- Big changes at Landmark Credit Union are in the offing. I hope their ATMs remain no-fee.
- Lastly, Wigderson sees his friends on the left are depressed. It’s because we’re not yet living in the socialist workers paradise of Clintonistan or Obamarama, James.
