On Falling enrollment leads to Janesville teacher cuts
Posted on April 30 at 2:28 p.m. ( Suggest removal )
Why did Janesville spend so much money on school additions last year?
Did the funding for these massive additions actually pass a voter referendum?
How could we let that happen when we all knew many years ago that GM was going to pull out?

On Band to appear on Letterman

Tad was one of a select few rock stars that were featured in Playboy Magazine last year in an article on how rock stars lost their virginity!
Tad and his local Janesville band with Chad Rabe and Jason Pettit played outdoors at my house on July 4th in the early 90's. The cops came three times to quite them down, but the band played on, till 11pm. Turns out there was no "noise" ordinance in Janesville at the time.
I wish Tad and the band luck always and still hope to get The Hold Steady at The Back Bar someday.

On City grapples with possible uses of mammoth GM facility
Posted on June 9 at 1:12 p.m. ( Suggest removal )
There is a likely option that GM will choose to tear down 100% of the plant, parking and fencing and also replace the top 6 feet of much of the land. As expensive as it might be, this will leave the land clean and ready to sell off in smaller lots with no liability to GM.

On Can the city of Janesville support a water park?
Posted on December 6 at 1:02 a.m. ( Suggest removal )
It is sad, but the citizens of Janesville have not really been very supportive of much of anything in recent history that would make Janesville a more popular place to live and play. If you think I am wrong, please take the time to tell me so. This is one debate I wish I would loose.

On Tallman Arts and Music Festival canceled
Posted on July 9 at 1:53 p.m. ( Suggest removal )
BIG mistake cancelling this years annual event. You could and should have held it regardless of how many booths. If you needed support, you could and should have been more creative. We all would have understood a scaled down event. Janesville needed this more than ever this year! Did the Gazette do a story on your needing more support? Who exactly runs the event and was responsible for cancelling it?
