There were HUGE flashes of light in that area around that time. I thought it was lightning... so... maybe it was that and that caused the outtage... OR some transformers or something blew up and that accounted for the flashes. They were SUPER bright flashes that lit up the whole sky... 3 of them. Two were within seconds of each other and another was about half a minute later or so...

Rees; When the Sacred village Board cloaked the building of a new Village hall for over $17 million,Read More it was brought to there attention to build TWO new fire stations. One south, one north. Instead they built the Taj Mahal and a distance fire station. Maybe the two remaining Trustees could orate their decision for the residents.

Hmm "make a stronger Wisconsin than ever". Yup Scottie, 44th in the country is the beat!Read More Soon 50th? Inverted math? "The recall brought us closer together" You won spending 6-1 using a majority of out of state $, had 5 times longer to campaign and won because one side failed to confront the second battle of recalls as a whole vs Scotties recall. "For decades we will be able to look up public officials and hopefuls, teachers, neighbors, interviewees" so much for freedom of speech & the recall Scott Walker used to become Milwaukee's head of busted political officials. Scott you were hired to represent all citizens of Wisconsin.

"Team of geniuses"? Your joking of course. My email box is blown off the planet by youRead More guys. What gives? For a couple of months I really thought this was the place to come to find out what was going on. You were giving the JT a real run for the money. Not any more. Maybe it's just me, and if so, I apologize, but there are better places to waste time then the Patch.
