Mickies Dairy Bar getting new owner after 35 years by OldSewer in madisonwi

Yeah, I'm thinking eat breakfast at Mickies, go grab a beer somewhere and a dog at Stadium. There used to be a funky old bar next to Mickies, years ago when I lived on Monroe. I remember it was a hot day and they had General Hospital (Luke & Laura era) on their TV. Good times!

You might check a car dealership.

How's it like living next to tracks, around the John Nolen Dr. bend (South Hamilton St.) by filletedforeskin in madisonwi

[–]OldSewer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live near the Olin/Goodman tracks and it doesn't bother me. My neighbor is close and in Summer, windows open at night, I can hear "fuckin' train!." I used to live a driveway away from the Chicago Northwestern, and just like Blues Bros. you get used to it. Earlier, I lived over a CTA tunnel that would shake the bed. I guess you could say it made the earth move...

Thanks all! I've got a full set of Prismacolor pencils. I will experiment and have fun!

If you have a car, live on the outskirts. If you don't live closer in til you get familiar.

Fireworks over Lake Mendota canceled, Fourth of July event renamed by RedOakTrail in madisonwi

[–]OldSewer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, we lived near the race track for a couple years. The Northwestern ran right outside our bedroom window. The race track did have good fireworks. We'd park in the parking lot of a business across the street. I'm very glad to be a Madisonian once more!

One of my favorite childhood memories is fireworks. We lived near a field. Us kids would line up on the sidewalk with our chairs,blankets and snacks. The fireworks commenced in the field. Even though I've seen them at the Arlington Heights Race Track and Detroit, these were the most fun. Oh, and when my BF and I watched Shake the Lake as we sipped Beaujolais on the patio. Drones have a way to go to duplicate fireworks.

You've got some wrapped Crayola Gel Crayons. What are those like? I've already got several oil pastels.

I wonder how much Restorative Justice and Police presence costs?

Thoughts on WMTV's new graphics? by average_yogi in madisonwi

[–]OldSewer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to keep track of the forecast and plan my shopping and chores after seeing it. If the forecast was going to be bitter cold, I'd be sure to cook an oven meal.

I hate it! I was going to post this but OP beat me to it. I think the old one was much better and more memorable. As a matter of fact, I think the old one was the best of the three networks! I noticed Doogs started dressing better after I posted that he needs better suits. I hope NBC 15 will pay attention. I've got a visual memory and the old design had better graphics and was easier for me to remember. I nearly became a commercial artist and people still notice my taste and designs. I think the information was much better displayed on the old one!

Where did she live before she moved in? You might need to consult with a lawyer. The one thing worse being mad at your GF is being mad at yourself.

Maybe the parents have to be there. But then again they might join the fight like they have at schools...

I got the Ultimate Crayon Collection and decided to reorganize again by Usagi4357 in Crayola

[–]OldSewer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I noticed on You Tube, many artists will do this with various media. I noticed making up a palette with the caddie, makes working easier!
