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!!

We're number-hic-one

So Milwaukee is the "Drunkest city in America" All those who are shocked please raise your hands. Anyone...anyone? Buller...Buller? Now I know why I live here because anywhere else would consider me a raging alcoholic, here I'm a "social drinker"

Anyway I know I'm the last of the small blogging commune we have here to post this tidbit, but I am the only one with the Lewis Black quote.

"I love Wisconsin. I love coming here. I perform here a lot, because I've discovered that you people apparently have some sort of federal grant for drinking. It's - you're insane! You pay less for liquor than anybody I know anywhere in the country. Nobody pays less for liquor than you! What'd you, wh- ho- HOW? I don't know if you're using that farm subsidy money, or if you're just hijacking liquor trucks, but this is fucking insane. It's unbe-fuckin'-lievable. It's staggering! I come here 'cause basically if I spend four days here drinking, even with the plane ticket it's cheaper than drinking in New York! How do you know when it's New Year's? That's the big mystery to me! What's the difference? I've been in bars here, and it's like New Year's every fuck night! Oh, New Year's, that's when w-w-we drink with hats on. Now I've been drunker here than any place else I've been in my life. And remember this: you are not, you are not alcoholics. You, and my hat is off, are professionals" - Lewis Black.

Now I'm off to Club Brady for their $10 bottomless mug night to celebrate in style!!
