I'm from Minnesota, but I was born in Milwaukee. I spent my youth there until I moved to the suburbs of St. Paul. I have always been a Wisconsin sports fan. I have always cheered for the Pack, even through the times I thought Anthony Dilweg should've replaced Don Majkowski. I have an unhealthy affinity for cheese and beer, which gets me in trouble with the Madison police when I try to hock the cheesy beer that I produce and can myself. (Apparently, you need something called a \liquor license"" in Madison. Fascists.) I even registered to vote in Wisconsin ever since media whore Jesse Ventura decided to bring his greasy frame to Minnesota politics.

A difficult weekend for the Wisconsin volleyball team has come to an end.
Generations before us had the Depression, Pearl Harbor and Kennedy's assassination. We have the World Trade Center. Not again will our predecessors ask us to be thankful for what we have and not take it for granted. They won't have to tell stories of how things were or remind us how easy we have it. We now have our own tenacious grip on American history. I don't say that with spite, I say it with newfound righteousness.
