Here is a store around 25th and Greenfield. In the window you can see an orangutan dressed in a graduation cap & gown and holding a diploma. Can you say "insensitive"?

Have any of you ever named your car? This guy not only named his Dodge Stratus, but apparently he's so proud of it that he has a second one just like it? (and just out of curiosity, why is it called the "Silver Ram Flame" when it's a black car.)
Maybe my problem is that I've never had a vehicle that I've been really proud of...naah, go with your first instinct - this is lame.

I gave some old aluminum storm screens to Leroy. In order to get top scrap prices, he started breaking the glass out of them but in the process he cut his right testicle and received 7 stitches.


Currently I am having trouble deciding if his new nickname should be Oddball or Wreckingball. If you have a suggestion-let me know.

Marquis and Michia (in white sitting on steps) were in court together at a child support hearing in the morning where he told her that he was going to shoot her. Later that day he shows up and proves that he wasn't kidding. Nobody was hurt but there were several arrests and this 1 block stretch was shut down for about 6 hours.




Cops were not too sympathetic with me but they are bureaucrats first, I've wanted to evict Michia for about two weeks now but 'baby daddy' doesn't live here and she has a lease with a term and has paid her rent-trying to evict her would go nowhere with any judge.

I remember learing how to write a check back in grade school...I guess they stopped teaching that. If this doesn't bounce, I'll be sure to let you know.

The zone is filled with hopeless romantics. You might think that dogs in heat use this abandoned garage but this captivating rendezvous point is too alluring to resist by the locals. And really, why would you take your lady to the Sybaris when you can bend her over at an alley side garage on 12th and Lapham?

When labeling your mailbox is too much of a chore, just get a marker and write on the wall. In this case, I didn't say anything to the tenants - this building is located at 15th and Harrison and is scheduled for demolition this September.

Several contenders for June's tenant of the month but here is your winner!

The following is from the Milwaukee Journal

A 32-year-old Milwaukee woman was charged Tuesday with drunken driving and recklessly endangering safety after crashing her SUV while transporting 10 children.

Akira S. Kirk of Milwaukee admitted drinking a 24-ounce can of beer before the rollover crash at the 10th St. exit ramp from northbound I-43, according to a criminal complaint. Kirk was charged with operating while intoxicated first offense with a minor child in the vehicle, operating with prohibited alcohol concentration first offense with a minor child in the vehicle and three counts of second-degree recklessly endangering safety.

Kirk was driving with 10 children between ages 2 and 18 in the 2003 Dodge Durango when she crashed Saturday afternoon, according to the Milwaukee County sheriff's office.

Before the crash, Kirk said, she had been traveling at 45 to 50 mph. Distracted by the children, she turned around to the back seat to stop the fighting, the complaint says. At that point, Kirk said, she lost control and hit a wall. The vehicle flipped, landing on the roof.

When a Milwaukee County sheriff's deputy arrived at the scene, Kirk was walking around the Durango, according to the complaint. She repeatedly said, "I'm drunk, arrest me. I hurt my babies." Two of the youngest children had been sitting on the laps of two older children, sharing seat belts, according to the deputy sheriff. Five of the children were injured, according to the sheriff's office.

Kirk failed a field sobriety test, according to the complaint, and had a blood-alcohol level of 0.16, twice the legal limit of intoxication.
