I told my husband that Wisconsin will have their revenue stream back with all the DUIs that will likely happen!
Hey, people can be careful and sensible. I don’t live in fear. I am cautious. I am fortunate in that I can be. :)

...a Liberal Democrat, will not approve of this state of affairs. She lives near Madison, or Madtown, as it is affectionately known.

No, we call it Madistan.

Luckily for her, she can freely choose to stay home, wear masks, gloves and googles, forego haircuts, shopping, all public gatherings and stay 6 feet away from the rest of us Free Wisconsinites.

Thank her for us.

My husband has COPD. We are not going anywhere and we don’t need to. We are quite happy staying home together.
