As if losing hundreds of millions of dollars of your net worth wasn’t bad enough, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg may find himself the subject of a hostile takeover. For those that use Facebook but aren’t aware of what’s going on, a company called Cambridge Analytica developed an app that ostensibly would help its users finds…… MORE
Committed For a Reason
Last week I mentioned a number of factors that went into why I as a teenager never had to fear dying in a school shooting–despite access to guns being easier in the 1980’s. Discipline, actual parental oversight, less glorification of violence and actual human interaction were among the points I touched on. One that I…… MORE
All Three’d Out
I’m sure there was plenty of excitement in Sunday’s NCAA Tournament games, but I just could not bring myself to watch much of it yesterday. This is a first for me, because I love college sports–and especially March Madness, with the upsets, buzzer beaters and everyone living and dying on every shot. But I can’t…… MORE
Really Fouling Out
As the WIAA Boys Basketball State Championships continue today, one player will be garnering a lot more attention than many of the others. It won’t be the high-flying Tyrese Halliburton of Oshkosh North or the high-scoring Jordan McCabe of Kaukauna. Instead, all eyes will be on Milwaukee Washington star Deontay Long–and for reasons that nobody…… MORE
From the Mouths of Babes

Playing Favorites
As any parent will tell you, even though they are supposed to love and treat all of their children the same, they do have favorites. There’s one child that isn’t as exasperating, behaves better, excels at everything and isn’t likely to cause the family great embarrassment. And there is that other kid whom they love,…… MORE

NO DARK STORE BILL
IT APPEARS THAT THERE WILL NOT BE LEGISLATION APPROVED THIS YEAR DEALING WITH THE SO-CALLED “DARK STORE” PROPERTY TAX LOOPHOLE. BIG BOX RETAILERS HAVE BEEN TAKING ADVANTAGE OF A COURT RULING THAT FINDS THEIR OPEN STORES SHOULD BE ASSESSED AT THE SAME VALUE AS A CLOSED STORE. THE STATE ASSEMBLY DID NOT VOTE ON THE…… MORE
It Just Doesn’t Feel Like Justice
Yesterday’s sentencing hearing for Dennis Brantner–the man found guilty of abducting and killing Berit Beck in Fond du Lac almost 28-years ago–leaves me feeling that justice was not done. Brantner got ten years in prison for a crime that went unsolved for 25-years. Beck’s family said yesterday’s hearing provided them with closure, but Brantner will…… MORE
