City bra ban doesn't hold up
Journel Sentinel ^ | May 16, 2013 | Jim Stingl

Stripped of the bras that decorated the tavern's ceiling for nearly half a century, the Holler House looked mighty naked.

But on Thursday, justice was restored to the universe. A ridiculous city order to ban the bras as a fire hazard was rescinded.

"Oh my goodness, we won," cried Marcy Skowronski, the always colorful 87-year-old owner of the south side bar. "We're going to have a party to throw the bras back up."

yeah frequently there is some genius who will mouth off to the po po that he has some judge on “his payroll” (defendant makes 11 an hour) while getting arrested. This tactic never works out too well for him..........

Good Lord! Go to any city council meeting LOL
It is painful.

I almost went last week, but it is so painful to watch the little dictators.

But it has to be done from time to time.

"I was working a remodeling job on a night club and the inspector came in to check the progress. The Inspector was a laid back guy, easy going type. The Manager thought he would be smart and jokingly said "You guys don't take bribes anymore" and laughed. Well, the club didn't open for another two weeks and cost them another 10k to make everything Perfect, and I mean perfect in every way. The manager was fired, of course. "

And the Inspector is now employed by the IRS?

I am reminded of an old PLAYBOY cartoon LITTLE ANNIE FANNY in which feminists start a bra burning program.

Some of the ugliest hags plaster signs THIS EXPLOITS WOMEN on everything around.

Then they line up and pull off their bra. Their breasts promptly fall to the level of their naval with a “plop” “plop” “plop”.

Then Annie pulls off hers. the feminists take one look at her pert (***) and promptly cover her with THIS EXPLOITS WOMEN signs.

I believe Jack Davis was the artist.

It is no surprise that Ald. Donovan was the one to get the silly charge dropped. He is the only one in Milw city govt that has any sense.
