I evicted this (government subsidized) family and found them living among 1000's of roaches.    You DID help build this Mr. President.

Once a month or so, Mike breaks his shower handle and needs me to replace it.  Yesterday I saw him walking up to his door with 3 boxes of food and asked him if it was a good time for me to fix his problem.  2 minutes the shower was fine and as I'm leaving, Mike is trying to give me food as a 'thank you'.  I told him that I couldn't possibly take his food because it was meant for truly needy people and he should keep it.  But he was insistent and said that every week he is given more than he can use so he ends up throwing things out.  I asked Mike 'Who gives you this food?"  He said "you just go by the school up the block on Thursdays and they give it to you".  I pressed him on this "Yea Mike, but tell me about the program, is it a private group or government - who gives this to you?"  - No idea.

So there you have it, whether you are hungry or want to perpetuate a "King Rat" kind of barter system, go by the school on Thursdays, and get you free boxes of food.  FYI, this juice is delicious-I usually buy the generic.

Some things you shouldn't have to point out.  Example: Don't empty the burning charcoal remnants from your grill onto a wooden deck.

I put this target on the inside door of my van.  My thinking was that it would be a deterrent to those passing by while I'm getting my tools.  Based on the comments I've received so far, I think it's working.

My 7 year old made me a book for Father's Day.  Here is a page from it...

For clarification, I'm the one in blue and I really do have arms.

If it's an item that the garbagemen won't take, you'll see it in the alleys.  How could Milwaukee leadership NOT see that one coming?

I love this one!  I came across this piece of garbage blowing across my property, so I stopped to pick it up.  Here is how I believe it got here; a baby mama opened her mail, pulled off the perforated check and threw the remaining contents to the wind.  There is no shame in the Zone.
