Anyone who watched the PGA tournament over the weekend on television had the opportunity to see Tiger Woods and myself … together.

As the television camera followed Tiger leave the 17th green on Saturday,  he passed within a couple feet of me.  My bright white/red floral print Hawaiian shirt clearly visible.

OK, so it is a stretch for me to say that Tiger and I were “together”. 

But, on Sunday someone did come up to me and say  “I saw you with Tiger yesterday.” 

So. it’s a stretch for me to say we were “together”  but it is not a lie.

Just keeping in practice.

What a joke. All this ruckus over a few Town Hall meetings.

Yes, some citizens are angry. There are ALWAYS some citizens angry.

Mayors and City Councils, County Boards and especially Zoning Committees face angry citizens all the time.

But, these pansy federal officials somehow think they should be immune to public criticism and questions.

I broke a tie vote of the Council to leash cats in our city.  Talk about angry citizens.  If you think people are passionate about their health care you should see how passionate they are about their pet cats.

What’s happening now isn’t news …  it’s just politics.

Sometimes I come across a problem which I have never encountered. Not even read about.

How about this?

Thousands of camels in Australia’s remote Outback could be killed by marksmen in helicopters under a government proposal aimed at cutting down the population of the havoc-wreaking creatures.

First introduced into Australia in the 1840s to help explorers travel through the Australian desert, there are now about 1 million camels roaming the country. They compete with sheep and cattle for food, trample vegetation and invade remote settlements in search of water, scaring residents as they tear apart bathrooms and rip up water pipes.

I have no idea if I were Mayor, how I would handle destructive roaming camels.

It doesn’t sound like the Humane Society is of much help.

Everyone needs challenges in life. I’m not talking about the unwanted challenges in life. Like me trying a home repair.  I’m talking about setting a goal and  going after it.

I’ve set a new goal for myself. A physical challenge which far exceeds any physical challenge I have ever tried before.  And, I’m no spring chicken.

I plan on entering RAGBRAI next year.

RAGBRAI®, The Register’s Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa®, is an annual seven-day bicycle ride across the state. Heading into its 37th year, RAGBRAI is the longest, largest and oldest touring bicycle ride in the world.

That’s right, I plan on biking across Iowa. Not  biking however. Last summer I purchased a Sun Tricycle.

You got it. I plan on triking across Iowa.  I have already started training. Let’s face it, I will be 59 when I complete this journey. I better start training now.

When I said I was going to run for Mayor and win. I did.

When I said I was going to write a local politics book. I did.

Now,  I am going to trike across Iowa.

Anyone want to bet against me?

What is your latest challenge?

I was in a meeting with a couple of City Council Representatives. The wording of a motion was brought up in the discussion.

Council Representative #1 says, “That’s not what we voted on.”

Council Representative #2 pulls out the minutes and reads the motion word for word.

Council Representative #1 replies, “Huh, I didn’t know that.”

I just shook my head.

I’m still shaking it.

There is trouble in Kenosha.

Squabbling Aldermen. They are squabbling over attendance among other issues.

One explains his absence … “These are part-time jobs and nothing more.”

That is not a very good excuse.

In fact, that is the worst excuse for missing a meeting I have ever heard.

This story is just too important  to pass on …

STOCKBRIDGE, Wis. (AP) — Four Wisconsin women are accused of tying up and assaulting a married man after allegedly finding out he was romantically involved with each of them.Calumet County prosecutors say 48-year-old Therese A. Ziemann of Menasha lured the man to a Stockbridge motel last Thursday. Prosecutors say she was soon joined by 43-year-old Michelle Belliveau of Neenah; 43-year-old Wendy L. Sewell of Kaukauna; and the man’s wife.

The women are each charged with being party to false imprisonment, a felony with a maximum prison term of six years. One is charged with fourth-degree sexual assault.

Authorities say Ziemann punched the man in the face and glued his penis to his stomach.

The Associated Press is not naming the victim’s wife to protect the man’s identity as a victim of sexual assault.

The women are free on $200 cash bails.

$200 bail for that?

That’s all?

When does that judge come up for re-election?

Is Patsy calling her competition a drunken liar without coming right out and saying it?
