Making a community in Milwaukee
There has been a rash of burglaries in my neighborhood recently and a string of car break-ins. Whenever faced with the collective yawn of the authorities, my mind flips to the scenario of leaving the city. It's only natural, I think, and it lasts only a few seconds. Because, I think of people I know who live out in the `burbs and about how most of them have almost no human contact there.

Return to glory for City Hall
When it was built in 1893, Milwaukee's City Hall stood as a testament to the city's emerging status as a major metropolis. But after 100 years of wind, rain, snow, ice and other effects of time, the landmark needed some major attention. Three years after a massive renovation project began, the scaffolding was taken down, the restored clock was lit and the famous bell sounded once again.

To accomplish those feats, Admirals president Jon Greenberg and head coach Lane Lambert brainstormed with OnMilwaukee.com and sent the team on a scavenger hunt. The results were hilarious.

Often, I get accused of having too much of a "rah-rah" attitude toward Milwaukee. Why is that such a bad thing?
