Hmmm...you say its 10% higher to shop at the Pig...Now if I spend $200 dollars that would be an additional $20.

*Now $20 extra to not have to put up with the lousy service at Walmart...worth it!

*$20 extra dollars to not have to put up with the unhappy an miserable crowd at Woodmans...worth it!

*Extra $20 not to have to drive to Janesville were everyone thinks when the left hand turn arrow turns red you can still go and almost cause a 10 car pile up...definitely worth it!

I will take the hometown store!! Good Job Jason!!

On More GM-Janesville suppliers to shut down

Posted on October 22 at 3:02 p.m. ( Suggest removal )

Ummm....BillyRay remember that all these other places have already laid off half their work force and have been looking for jobs since the end of June. Now the rest will be done the end of December. When you add up the numbers it is right around a 1,000 non GM workers laid off. Not to mention any of the temp service people that may have been used by these companies. It will have an effect on our area. When the unemployment runs out and there are not enough jobs in the area to support this...It will have an effect!

On GM to end local SUV production in December

It may not be over for the GM workers, but it is definitely over for the suppliers in the area. Even if they retool you’re looking at a cold hard winter for alot of people because it takes several months to do so. The word IDLE may be good but it still ultimately has the same effect on alot of people!

On Should the Janesville School District charge higher fees for sports with higher costs?

Posted on August 27 at 6:29 a.m. ( Suggest removal )

I am against the fees. It is very unfortunate already today without the extra fees not every kid can have a chance to participate. Just stop by one of the local youth football fields and start asking some of the kids standing around watching in their street clothes why they are not playing...I did and its because their family don't have the money for them to play. Its not just sports that this happens in...its anything to do with the activities that charge to participate. How sad is it! NO KID who wants to play should be left behind!! Somehow we need to stop the friggin fees and figure out a better way to raise the money so any kid who wants to participate can. $300 to play OUTFRIGGINRAGOUS!!!!

On Businesses helping employees to become better health consumers

Posted on August 12 at 12:46 p.m. ( Suggest removal )

It's funny when things are bad for us or not healthy we want it and we will do most anything to get it...but when things are good for us we run away from it and complain that its not right and call the "UNION". Look at the good this program can do for its employees! I think it is a great thing that an employer cares for the health of their people even if it is a possible money saver for the company. They obviously spent the money they save in insurance wisely so far.

On Milton names new HS principal

cardtrader...quote - "This guy cant run a High School offense now you make him the Principle! You have got to be kidding me". That is offensive...quote - "Milton dont care about the integrity of the school only the bottom line". Direct insult on a mans integrity.

You have insulted and been very offensive to Mr. Bilhorn and you need to rethink those comments. An opinion is one thing but a shot at a mans integrity is another. Mr Bilhorn is one of the most compassionate person I have met. His ability to communicate and get the most out of kids ranks as high as anyones in the area. Milton made a fine choice with Mr Bilhorn and I wish him all the best. Now about his ability to run an offense...hmmm...how many conference championships did Milton win...I would say he did a fine job!

As far as Mr Pape goes I am sure as Mr Bilhorn he would have been another wonderful choice. We are very blessed in the Milton school district to have a group of very fine teachers and administrators.

billnewbie...I understand...there alot of people on these blogs that use them to degrade people. I don't know the cities plans for future development or where maybe the appropriate place to put something of that nature is...I do however believe that this city is in dire need of things and places for kids to go. Hanging out at the Dunkin Donuts on Milton Ave could be traded for something more interesting and fun to do if the city is willing to invest in the kids of this city.
