They'll have to cut back spending 70%.
They'll need that money to pay Wisconsin's taxes.
So, an aging hippie moved to the Ithaca of the midwest and they expect us to think its something profound. My eyes are rolling so hard I have a headache.

Madison, Ann Arbor, Berzerkely, all dominated by communists. Can't help but wonder why anyone would move there unless they were one.
Penelope Trunk appears to be a professional 9/11 victim.

Cha-ching!!!
Madison has changed a good deal since my grandfather moved there from the "old country" in the late 1800's. Raised 12 children and made his living cutting ice out of Lake Mendota. I used to visit there frequently with my father to see my uncle who lived there until his death about 15 years ago. But the taxes are indeed ridiculous.
What an utter waste of time. There is no value to this piece whatsoever, other than to the writer herself, as she gets to suck-up to the staff at her hometown paper. As soon as she comes out of the closet the cycle will be complete, and she'll get her credentials.
Good Post! Good story by a person who was there when it was happening.
Now I know that if I die tomorrow, what I'll regret is not getting to watch my life unfold. So I make sure to appreciate the unfolding of each day. I made a career change from Wall Street-based business development to home-based writer, I had two kids, and I encouraged my husband to reject jobs with long hours. We vowed to cut back our spending 70 percent to create a more simple life.
Hmmmmm I seem to smell a PR job. 2 Kids and a new husband after losing one Husband in the Twin Towers? Pretty fast work for only 5 years.
isn't she one of the jersey girls?
Read it again.
the author of the forthcoming book: "You Don't Need a Ladder to Get to the Top: New Rules for Success" (Warner).
Hmmm, Madison WI, the Commie HQ of the midwest ... some people never learn.
..."respects culture and diversity.". We have a pinko!
i'm not saying she gets a free pass. i just don't want to be like the close minded liberal, who cannot accept anything anyone outside his realm says.
There's a difference between being a victim, and telling about a life-changing experience. WHAT IS WRONG with this article?
Madison is nothing compared to Ann Arbor. She merely moved to Madison because she couldn't afford Ann Arbor.
Anyone with a comic sense of the absurd cannot make it past the first two sentences without laughing.
I was next to the World Trade Center when it fell, and for the past five years, people have regularly asked me, "How has it changed your life?"This month, for the first time, I can say, "I moved to Madison."
Does she still drink out of toilets in Wisconsin?
