@abetterpleasant Horse trailer bar would be a great addition!

@abuckslater The founder of the Skirball Center, Uri Herscher, spent two years in rabbinic school as the commuting rabbi to our small congregation in Dubuque, Iowa. He would step in front of the bima and give riveting perfectly composed sermon/talks without a note.

ALL OF THIS!!

@Zathras3 @Tony4WI Did Evers do any prep for this debate? He often seemed confused and comments were half-baked, like his comparing Conn. and WI school spending. Seemed sort of random without connecting Michels and Conn.

@synathroesmus @WisconsinDPI "The Am. Century" -- our economic boom and worldwide dominance was built on universal public education. Shifting to unregulated schools w/out teacher requirements is a step backwards; many of these schools do not teach science or believe in it. Good luck competing with China.

[L.J. Tabak @LawrenceTabak]

@ForOurFutureWI Oh, thanks for comment. NOW I know why Evers compared the per student spending in Conn. to Wis. However, he forgot to mention the dollars he was citing were per-student stats or to connect Michels to Conn. I bet his team was hitting their heads as he whiffed over and over.

[L.J. Tabak @LawrenceTabak]

@DanielBice I guess Evers' crackerjack team thought the biggest issue he could address was his alarm clock. He sure got his punch in on that one! Meanwhile he missed a half-dozen knockout blows by not even swinging.

@phidippides26 National chain -- Google reviews of the Middleton, Wisconsin location to get a sense of how a good name goes bad.

@beth_phelan All mammals other than the apes can swim naturally. Hold a newborn puppy over water and it will begin treading.

@TalbotDavis @usta @servevolleyer Ballroom tennis -- it's a kind of dream to me now.

@KristinBrey @s_barichello @Mark_Baden @BrianNizTMJ4 @SamKuffelWx Isn't it ironic? (Actually, no.)

Professor Hicks was one of the first warning voices on the problems with Wisconsin's costly flirtation with Foxconn. Here on the economic impact of abortion restrictions: https://t.co/ZKKRbHaWyO

A lot of people ask me what's happening with the 3,800 Foxconn plot. Check out this road to nowhere and remember Walker/Kleefisch, the geniuses behind the fiasco.
