"Used to live in Wisconsin during the '50s and 60s...when it was a Republican state....then the libs moved in and took it over....time for the Republicans to take it back...long time coming.....(Is Paco's (Mexican restaurant) still on State Street in Madison near the U of W campus?)"

Nope, no Pacos. There's a Starbucks or 17 though. Chains have started to take over the restaurants on the campus end of State Street. Closest real Mexican restaurant is Pasquals which is about a mile from campus. There is a Taco Hell on State Street now.

Is that on Park? I drive by that place daily (including today), but have never been there. Smelt it though, running by a few times.

Tomorrow is my last full day in Madison, forever. Makes me sad at the exact same time that I really can't wait to get the hell out of here.

Speaking of the Taco Bell, that's the one you have to get 'buzzed' into the bathroom. Sketchy place. Besides, most people go to Qdoba anyway.
