No one mentioned the HUGE "China-Town" located in RACINE (although I've
never seen it in person despite living in Racine, it's in the
movie "Bird on a Wire" with Goldie Hawn, however)
... can't think of any KENOSHA humor, although some of the people that
live in Kenosha are weird... I deal with them daily. Perhaps Kenosha is
really another planet and I wasn't aware of it. It is the only place in
Wisconsin that has an electric trolley that goes nowhere...
Ahhh "Trolley to Nowhere" This sounds like a good name for a rock
band... (oops I stole that one from Dave Barry)
Cute humor Tim.

There is that too.
Whereas in Georgia one can make some sort of meal - with Peach, and
Crisp
Bacon and Coffee counties.
Interestingly the latter are side by side.
We have occupations - Miller and Baker. One can join Union and
deposit in
Banks. For what
it's Worth, if one is Early enough one can Dodge the high water and
cross
the Brooks.
One can go down the Hall and see several presidents - Washington,
Madison,
Jackson, Jefferson,
Monroe, Johnson, Lincoln and even Jeff Davis!
Well that's all for this AM - now back to Wisconsin!
Where I'll Grant you that Washington and Jefferson, Lincoln, Taylor
Dunn
showed up too.
While they were out looking for Iron in the Forest, they opened the
Door
one day to find
Florence on the porch. There on the Wood table were samples of
Buffalo,
Eau Claire, but they
came at the Price of a Jackson.
They went over the Portage in a Green Dodge, on their way to Iowa,
where
the Marathon
was taking place. Adams had told them it would be near a Green Lake,
but
Sawyer told them
Richland awaited them if they went to play La Crosse.
and so on - have a shot at yourselves!
