Friday Random Stuff

• Confession: I have lived in Milwaukee for more than nine years now, and I've never eaten at a George Webb. (Update for McIlheran readers: I live in walking distance of Leon's, and had some the other night. But I start back on the diet next week.)
  
  
• I've now found the websites for both Democratic candidates for Milwaukee County DA: Make up your own mind between John Chisholm and Larraine McNamara-McGraw (who, unfortunately, seems to have embraced "Mac Mac").
  
  
• Can someone please explain to me why Ann Althouse is still Wisconsin's widest-read blogger?
  
  
• As it turns out, camera-phobe Tom Reynolds is a trendsetter. He--or perhaps Bob Dohnal--should have sent a memo to George Allen.
  
  
• I'm trying not to be offended that Larry Nelson named Wiggy's blog ahead of mine (hat tip to Russ) (hi, Larry!).
  
  
• As I always say, it will be a great day when schools have all the money they need and the military needs volunteers from GE Medical Systems to build a bomber.
  
  
• Diamond Dave uses Jessica McBride's logic (if that's the right word) against her.
  
  
• The Right Cheddarshere may want some bacon with the egg on their faces: Lautenschlager's in the clear on the Wisconsin Citizen Action deal, after she did what the court-appointed consumer advocate recommended.
  
  
• Back when I was one of the only members of the Left Cheddarsphere, I had to handle the McIlheran Watch all by myself. Seems now, though, that everyone wants in on the action.
  
  
• Anyone know what happened to Flamingo Jones?
  
  
• You should be reading the blog of former guest-poster here grubleberries.
  
  
• I keep thinking I should blog Mark Green's education, er, "plan"--the "70% Solution"--but JYD at A Different Take totally nails it. Gretchen also makes a good point, and some general points can be found here.
  
  
• You should check out one of the best arguments for unionization I've ever read.
  
  
• What's your random stuff?
