Other than my four years in the Army I have been a lifelong resident of Wisconsin The Democratic Republic of Fitzwalkerstan. I have always been proud of my state and my heritage as a Badger. I have cheered on the Packers when they had losing season after losing season. I was sitting in Camp Randall Stadium during the Don Morton "Veer Offense" years (You have no idea how rough those years were).
I have driven around with my windows down and my heater blasting in January if the temperature got above freezing. I go to fish fries on Friday nights. I proudly wear a chunk of foam cheese on my head and proclaim loudly, I AM A CHEESEHEAD.
