As a life long Milwaukee resident, you would think I would know all there is to know about Milwaukee.But I don't.There have been so many times when someone that is not a native Milwaukeean will visit and I am put in the position of playing tour guide, to see them wide eyed and amazed at our city ...
In the end it all felt so familiar for the Milwaukee Brewers. Squaring off against an overmatched San Diego Padres team in the final game of the 2012 season, the Crew powered their way to an early lead only to watch it all slip away due to an underperforming bullpen. Ultimately, game number 162 w...
Wednesday August 1st, 2012 – Fox Lake, IL Welcome to the wonderful world of August. This is a month of transition, one of the biggest of any given year in my opinion. It’s the antithesis of that old saying of March coming in like a lion and going out like a lamb. Mar...
Tuesday July 24th, 2012 – Fox Lake, IL Today was supposed to be my day off. Ha! Right. Those are getting to be about as rare as wins for the Cubs or Brewers these days. I’ve been putting all kinds of effort into a variety of projects lately and stretching m...
Tuesday June 5th, 2012 – Wadsworth, IL/Milwaukee, WI I need a few days to just let my brain air out a little. I’ve got so many precarious projects piled so high on my plate I can’t even find the plate anymore. It took a very long time to get this way, and there&r...
Tuesday March 6th, 2012 - Twin Lakes, WI I’m doing my very best to financially back myself up to avoid another major train wreck like last week. That was beyond brutal, and it has scared me into taking action like I never have before. I’ve been on financial thin ice my who...

Undefeated!Defending league champions!No this is not a blog about the Green Bay Packers, but more a team that has literally been forgotten about by Milwaukee area sports fans.The Milwaukee Wave, 5 time league champions and probably the most successful sports team on the state that does not wear g...
Wednesday October 12th, 2011 - St. Charles, IL I’m a control freak, and I make no bones about it. I try not to be a foaming at the mouth maniacal tyrant, but I do gravitate toward being in charge of most situations. I find it very difficult to trust anyone else to look after my ...
Sunday October 9th, 2011 - Kenosha, WI I sure hope fun counts for something in life, because I’ve been having a lot of it lately. I may not be rich and famous, but dad gum it I’m enjoying the ride - especially in these last several months. Getting diagnosed with diabetes w...
Dear Prince Fielder,I've been thinking about writing you for a while now, and after watching you today hit that 7th inning dinger to seal the deal, and more specifically how you looked as you approcahed your insanely giddy teamamtes in the dugout, I knew now was the time.Why on earth would y...
Breast cancer touched our lives in 1991 when it took the life of Ellen’s mother. The tragedy became an inspiration to us, and we are now committed to raising funds for breast cancer research, education, screenings and treatment. But we can’t do it alone. That is why we are ser...
Thursday August 4th, 2011 - Rosemont, IL Forty years, and I‘ve finally had my fill. That’s how long I’ve been farting around with sports cards, and it’s time to move on. It was a lot of fun, and I did make at least a couple of bucks…at times - but it&rsq...

It was the final school day of ...
