hg: That was probably me you were behind in the checkout at F&F. I have been looking all over for a pressure cooker as a gift for a friend, and finally found one at F&F last week. All we wanted to do was kill a pot roast, like our mothers made back in the olden days. Besides, the one I bought doesn't have a timer like the ones had in Boston, which was needed to detonate it. Sheesh.

I am sad to see this happen. I don't live in the country anymore, and it's not practical for me to get the print edition, because the paper would be at least a week old by the time I got it.
I grew up in Janesville, and have friends still there. I usually just look at the obits and some of the news articles that are local only to Janesville. I am hoping that your limited access will allow me to see at least the obits. Thanks.
On Do you support dropping of Saturday mail delivery?

Where I live, the Postal Service has done away with Saturday delivery for years now. I don't miss it. Also, some pharmacies here have a fully functional Postal service that is open longer hours than the USPS. These stores are also allowed to make a profit for providing these services.
Also, they have just recently eliminated the penny as well, saving the taxpayers even more money, and I don't miss the pennies at all!

I have enjoyed your blogs for a few years now. I'm sorry to see you leave, but I wish you good luck in your future.
On Police: Janesville boy's bb gun causes scare

If you read the first paragraph, it states, "... after reports that he was walking around his neighborhood pointing a look-alike assault rifle at passing vehicles." POINTING IT AT PASSING VEHICLES.
That's why people were alarmed that he was "walking around with a gun."

I get my flu shot almost every year, since I have been in an "at risk" group for 15 years. I missed the shot one year and was out sick for 6 weeks. I can't afford to do that. When I get the shot, I'm fine. Got mine later than usual this year, felt great, and even avoided the "plague" everyone around me has had (Knocking on wood!).

I was in Janesville visiting a couple of months ago, and I went to the Olive Garden. The waitress we had was one of the best I've encountered. She was fast, courteous and even offered a bit of humor during the meal. I am looking forward to eating there again when I get back to Janesville in a few weeks!

I also love that TV show, and was pulling for Rachel and Dave to win it all. Was a fantastic ending! Congrats!

Whew! I thought I had looked at Shopko, but maybe not. I only thought of going to F&F, because they have everything! :)
