Bert, Bert & Ernie, Bert is the man, celebrity breakups, Celebrity Death Watch, celebrity deaths, domestic violence, Ernie, firearm-related homicides, good manners, muppet-on-muppet violence, murder, proper behavior, Sesame Street, spousal abuse, the love which dare not speak its name

By Smaktakula

Even love has its limits.  How much longer can Bert endure Ernie’s unending cavalcade of tedious bullshit?   

Because Playing The Drums At 2 AM When Your Lover Is Trying To Sleep Is Very Rude, Ernie. Very, Very Rude.

Selig, The Man Responsible For Bringing Baseball Back To Milwaukee, Stands Between The Comedian (The Watchmen) And Braves Legend Hank Aaron (Who Hit .232 For The Brewers Over Parts Of Two Seasons).

Bud Selig, the Commissioner of Major League Baseball and former owner of baseball’s vestigial Milwaukee Brewers, is immortalized in bronze outside of Miller Park.  Observers called this a testament to Milwaukee’s desperation for recognition beyond alcohol-related infamy.         

Selig’s is the second high-profile statue to be erected in Milwaukee in the last three years, a renaissance for the Midwestern City.  The other piece of statuary is a likeness of fictional former cultural icon Arthur Fonzarelli.  Milwaukee’s greatest heroes finally have what they deserve.         

"Aaaaaaaay! So Who The Hell Are Robin Yount And Paul Molitor, Anyway? Aaaaaaaay!"

Perhaps Unsurprisingly, This Burg Smells Pretty Much Like You Would Expect A Town Called 'Oxnard' To Smell.

 An Oxnafact: The town of 200,000 was named for sugar beet baron Henry Oxnard, who had the good sense to never go anywhere near the place.
