It looks like Christmas this year will be just like the ones I used to know–bitterly cold with a ton of snow. The Storm Team Five forecast for the holiday weekend calls for accumulation of a couple of inches the next few days, followed by below zero temps Christmas Eve and a high Christmas Day of just five. …… MORE

They Don’t Want Your Help
I didn’t have to hide any shock yesterday when Oshkosh City Manager Mark Rohloff told me that very few people are allowing inspectors inside their units for mandatory rental inspections this year. That’s because it doesn’t surprise me in the slightest. Of the 300 or so inspection conducted since they started in September, just 35…… MORE
Why Do They Have to Ruin Everything?
One of the greatest appeals of the movie A Christmas Story is that it perfectly captures the childhood experiences of so many people. Who didn’t have a toy that they thought would completely change their lives once they got it? What boy didn’t fudge things up when they tried to help their Dad the first…… MORE
The Best Gifts
Will today’s kids remember Christmas the way so many of us older folks do? I’m often accused of being a Scrooge at this time of year because I do not get into the “holiday spirit” in any way. I’m disgusted by some of our stations going to Christmas music right after Halloween. I don’t put…… MORE

During the infamous McCarthy-Army hearings in June of 1954, the Wisconsin Senator got into an argument with Army counsel Joseph Welch. …… MORE
A New Hope
A big congratulations to members of the real Republican Party as they celebrate the loss of the hijacked Republican Party candidate in yesterday’s special Senate election in Alabama. The contemptible Roy Moore loses a seat that had been held by the GOP for 25-years. When faced with a decision between two bad options on…… MORE
The Savior Is Coming!
It is apropros that Aaron Rodgers may return as starting quarterback for the Green Bay Packers during this holiday season–as many fans believe their savior is about to arrive. There is this general idea that Rodgers is going to come back from an eight-week layoff and immediately resume playing at a Hall of Fame level. Despite…… MORE
When You Can’t Afford Any Mistakes
About a week ago I lauded the national news outlets that had done great work in uncovering the actions of the real “fake media” and efforts to undermine the credibility of traditional journalism. Then last week, many of those same outlets turned around and had very bad weeks–publishing a number of inaccurate stories about the…… MORE
Pay Your Bills First
It’s too late, but I would still like to nominate University of Mount Union Football Coach Vince Kehres for 2017 Sportsman of the Year. Kehres likely saved UW-Oshkosh from some major embarrassment by signing off on tomorrow’s Division III Football National Semi-Final game being played at Titan Stadium instead of in Ohio. When it was announced…… MORE
