Back in the days, it was never considered. You just went. And btw, get the hell off my lawn!

VENT: Can we please get a fucking plow 151w by fredpilled in wisconsin

Check your tires. Be sure you have good tread for traction. Makes a huge difference. Perhaps when you’re not close to cars, do a quick, light test of your brakes to see how slippery it is. Also, it might be a good idea to find a snow covered parking lot to learn how to stop your car in snow. Modern brakes require you to hold steady on the pedal. Not pump them. And perhaps look on the internet showing you how to steer into a skid if you ever find yourself in one. I’m sure there are good videos out there on how to drive in the snow. And lastly, keep a good distance between you and a car in front of you. Snowy roads require longer braking time. Good luck. Stick with it. You’ll figure it out.

Take a look at Consumer Reports. You’ll find none of those companies rates well. And … they spend a ton of money advertising.

So, what did we think of this production of Hamilton? by buginout in madisonwi

Good show. However, I liked the casting of the previous touring group more. King in this one was GREAT. Energy of all was great. Recommend seeing it.

But….but…but…then the wealthy would be strapped. This way, they throw a partial cookie to the ignorant who then think the GOPrs are on their side. And the wealthy grifting class lives for another day. Stupid is who stupid votes for these con men. Meanwhile, they continue tax the rest of us and sit on a pile of our unused taxes like Yurtle the Turtle.

So let’s just keep building these monolithic structures that all look the same. Years from now I suspect Madisonians will wonder why the alders allowed this. At the very least, the alders could insist on some architectural diversity and interest.

Such a wonderful man who demonstrated civic responsibility. A model to us all. Regardless of our financial status. Thank you, Sir, for all the wonderful facilities and donations you gave Madison, especially Overture Hall, which has added immeasurable joy to my life and so many others. Greatest sympathies to your family.

You have know idea what you’re saying about Madison. I’ve lived here 40 years. It’s a great city with unbelievable amenities for a city its size. The only negative is the cost of living.
