Chances are that if you are reading this you already know me. But if you are a stranger and you are looking for left-of-center political opinions, rambling, senseless rants, and coverage of the Atlanta Braves that can only be described as severely manic-depressive...Welcome!!

Bra of mystery

When snow and ice retreat they sometimes leave behind interesting things; cavemen, the Great Lakes, lingerie. Such was the case here in the greater Murray Hill, Lake Park, North Avenue, UWM metropolitan area when we were hit with a mid-winter thaw.

When the snow melted on the edge of the street across from le maison du Chipper it did not reveal any bodies of water nor any spear-holding hunters named Og. What it did reveal was a bra, a black bra, and one would assume a woman's bra but one cannot be 100% sure on that front. That bra has been there ever since. It shifts position occasionally, as it is run over several times a day, it has now drifted down the street closer to Stowell but it is still visible from my front window. Still plastered to the asphalt, with nobody willing to touch it.

Still many questions remain; whose bra is it? How did it get there? Why wasn't I watching when it happened?

I've noticed the Murray Hill area growing in size with every post. Pretty soon you'll be including Brady and Prospect, Bayshore, and Mayfair Mall. When will this madness stop!!

Good to see you and Mark at Hallidays. We should really do that more often.

The greater Murray Hill metropolitian area encompasses the land between the lake and the river, and North Ave. and UWM...for now. We have our own version of the Schlieffen Plan hidden behind the pinot noir case at Sendiks.

You will tremble before our military might when our troops suddenly show up on Farwell between Koppas and the Comet. Oh yes, you will tremble.

Until then a good drinky-drinky evening out on the east side is a good idea. Just tell me when and where.
