  • On the article City Set to Turn Away Chain Restaurants from East Tosa

    McDonalds, KFC, Subway, and DQ are already there. They are probably the most patronized places between 68th and 60th. Converesly, West of there are some nice little shops, but I doubt they have the same amount of patronage. Along with the moratorium, how about community marketing seminars for the owners of the independent shops? I'm all for limiting the business presence to inde's, but let's help the inde's make it. Some of the owners are terrible at marketing and as such, they are not making it. Not to pick on Wauwatosa Grill, but they sure could use some help with marketing consulting. I'm sure they aren't alone. A good product is no guarantee of success. Let's do two things: limit chains, and help small business there with marketing training.

    Garden girl, you may very well be right. 15 is below the age of consent, but then again kids consent with other kids, and a 15 year old looks at an 18 year old like another kid.

    Dick G, maybe it was your daughter, and you're troubled that she has her own dress from the Monica Lewinski protein stained collection. Maybe it's your trips to the woodshed wih your own daughter that inspired your asinine left-field attack. It obvioisly hit you close to home. Only an absolute cork soaker such as yourself could surmise a conclusion such as you did.

    Nancy, you were the one who brought issue with my original FZ reference. In FZ quotes and biography, you are in over your head with me. Not to beat the dead Frank to death, Frank wrote these songs based on his experience with chicks on the road. His point is obvious and although written in fictional storyesque, he does accurately depict the fact that there are naughty girls out there. There are. Back to this issue, I hope you aren't a judge or lawyer. He did not necessarily commit a crime. So far, it's merely 'she said', and it may or may not be true. But that's not even the issue for me. How did this boy know that she was pick-up-able? What signal did she give to passing motorists that indicated that she was on the market? Was she getting her business plan together? Why did this boy single her out? What prompted her to enter his vehicle? Did she enter on the lure of booze? I can't dispute that 18 is of legal age and 15 isn't, but my instincts tell me that this may very well be a very naughty teenage girl, the kind you don't take home to mother, who will never let your spirits down, once you get her off the street. She may very well be a super freak, super freak, who was super freaking, yow! (Temptations, sing!) Or maybe she was assulted and all allegations are true. Maybe it was guilt. Hurt feelings? Jealousy? Hangover w/standard regret? Was she alone at the time of the pick-up? Friends don't let friends climb into cars, get drunk, and gob knob. We just don't know, do we?

    Amy, I do have a teenage daughter. And make no mistake, I know what they are capable of. I do not assume that my precious little lamb will carry her virginity accross the threshhold of matrimoney wiith Prince Charming. Probably, like most girls, she will lie to me at some point in the future, whether it's in high school or college, and she will drop trou with the boy she is desparately, passionately in love with, not believing me that his passion will quickly wane, uh, after, when "I love you so" turns into "I have to go" "Where's the remote?" or "Make me a sandwich". So let's not get personal, Amy. Have you ever gone to bed as a teenager, rushing past Daddy without a kiss goodnight, and the curious dog would not leave your breath alone? What team did those boys play for?

    Nancy, I quoted Frank because he overtly recognized the sluttiness of some girls, not to say with any certainty that this girl qualifies. I suppose she qualifies to the same degree that this 18 year old suspect is guilty of a crime. "Joe had a girlfriend named Mary. She used to go to the church club every week. They'd meet each other there, hold hands, and think pure thoughts. But one night at the social club meeting, Mary didn't show up. She was sucking c**k backstage at the Armory in order to get a pass to see some big rock group for free." -Crewslut, Joe's Garage Act I, 1979- Also, "You paint your head, your mind is dead, you don't even know what I just said...that's youuuu...American womanhood. You're phone on top, you're phony underneath, you lay in bed and grit your teeth..." -Harry You're a Beast, We're Only in it for the Money, 1968- Frank had much to say on Susie Creamcheese and what she really does. You are in over your head with this argument.

    When 'drunken skank' is on the endangered species list, I'll shed a tear for all poor victims. You assume that the drunken teenage humming hitchhiker is a victim. Not necessarily. As for the minor issue, the fact that he was 18 is a technicality. I was 15 and had an 18 year old girlfriend I was banging. Was she sexually assaulting me just because she was 18? And she bought me beer and made me go down on her in her car. I suppose if my neck was on the line and it was me or her, I might drop a dime on her, depending on how bad it was for me. Not all teenagers who put out are victims of others. They may be victims of themselves. Some are just plain hosebags. When 'white trash' goes on the endangered species list, I'll shed a tear.

    When I was a kid, that was just 2 kids gettin' at it. Now, it's a felony. It's easy to control the people when everything is a felony. Add somebody giving somebody head, and it's a juicy enhancement of titilating and salacious too. We won't blame the girl, but she did allow a young man to pick her up in his car. Problem so far? Yeah, me too. Then there was the bottle of vodka. THEN there was head. Now, it's 1st degree sexual assault? Rewind, please. Stories of kids change when they get caught, and it may be an easy deflection of the issues of rides with strangers and a bottle of vodka to add the he-said/she-said of a drunken hitchhiker hummer. Isn't that why girls hitchhike anyway? To get picked up by boys? To then drive them to the church social where they hold hands and think pure thoughts? "Susie Creamcheese, what's gotten into you?" -FZ-

    I had just talked to my son about this a few days ago. He has a friend who is suspected of having tried to hang himself recently. I told my son that I will wholehartedly buy him weed if he needs to get high that badly. I told him to be honest with me and tell me if his desire to catch a buzz is that strong and that if it is, I'd rather see him smoke a joint than put a belt around his neck. And he knew that I meant it, which I DO, if faced with a child that bent on getting buzzed. A lady from our church had a teenage son who killed himself the same way a few years ago. They found several broken belt buckles in his closet, If you find broken belt buckles in your house, intervene! If you find a guitar strap not on guitar, intervene! Don't pretend this just happens in other houses. Talk to your kids about this. Can you imagine seeing your child dead in their closet? Is it not worth the conversation?

    Oscar Meyer has a lightweight weenie problem. Subway has 11" footlongs. They both claim regret. "I'm sorry my weenie was small" -Oscar Meyer- "I'm sorry my footlong didn't measure up to my bragging." -Subway-. Next thing you know, I'll find out that I'm not actually saving any money at all at Menards; that it's not a bank or savings and loan or anything like that. Someone needs to be sentenced to 12 credits of ethics classes.
