Paul's Falls
I have lived in the Falls since 1968. My great-great grandfather was one of the village founders. I have served the community in multiple ways: Firefighter, various boards and commissions and for many years was president of the Falls Cable Access Corp. Currently I own, and am active in, a restaurant equipment manufacturing company.
Losing Respect
Today I watched Governor Walker's budget address. He had some good things to say.
Unfortunately, he has succumbed to the easy-way-out of giving a political speech. He was using the dreaded teleprompters! One to the right side, one to the left side. These aids help give the appearance of actual thought communication with an audience. But, in reality, he is addressing only a few people near the direct line of sight to the prompters. He is merely addressing reflective glass screens.
A Hybrid Pollution Test
Two years ago I bought my first hybrid vehicle. It is a Toyota Highlander. I love it.
Last year when it was time for license renewal I had no difficulties. The car was still new and it didn't need an inspection.
It's for the Children?
Today I learned of an activity in Menomonee Falls Schools that has me a bit wrankled.
Representatives of Time Magazine are allowed into classrooms to urge children to submit names and addresses of their friends and relatives and hand them over to the magazine.
