No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

Pimp the vote

by @ 16:32. Filed under The Blog.

Even though I think “Team Trousermouse” was a weak quote for MRQ compared to a few others I unleashed last week, Phel and Uncle Fred didn’t think so. Seems it’s up for MRQ of the week (the poll’s on the right side of every RDW page, including the one I linked to).

Go, vote before Monday, August 6. Prove my prognostication wrong. I will deny it if you attempt to stuff the ballot box, so please don’t.

NRE Poll – When will Midwest Airlines be absorbed by AirTran?

by @ 15:21. Filed under Miscellaneous.

Given that, after a disappointing 2nd quarter for Midwest and a gangbusters 2nd quarter for AirTran, Midwest announced that it will open negotiations with AirTran, the sale is now imminent.

When will Midwest Airlines be sold to AirTran?

New blog term – WisOpalanche

by @ 8:44. Filed under The Blog.

This is humbling:

– 60 people rolled in here off of WisOpinion’s mention of my initial missive on the latest Milwaukee County pension scam.
– StatCounter recorded 220-some page loads from 174 “unique” visitors, with 47 of them coming back after 6 hours.

Needless to say, yesterday was by far the busiest day of the blog, and I didn’t even have a live thread. Now I’ve got some pressure.
