back me up on this, jullili! (julillie? jululee? jillaleigh? jewelalee?)
my number one son whines and begs for minneapolis, but milwaukee seems like the wave of the future to me.
for example, while a downtown loft costs a half a million dollars in ann arbor, here is what you can get for $139,900 in milwaukee:
Bedrooms: 3
Bathrooms: 2
Taxes: $1,194 For 2004
Year Built: 1908
Lot Size: 100x34
The approximate monthly Principal & Interest payment for this property would be $923.88
This payment is based on a 30-year loan at a fixed rate of 8.0% with a down payment of $13,990
...it's apparently in this kind of neighorhood:
which kind of blends in with this district of funky-fresh hipness.
but since the taxes are like 1/2 of what they are in the rest of the city, it must be in a bad nighborhood or something right? and naturally one hundred and forty thousand dollars is a heck of a lot of money. but since it MIGHT be possible to secure a loan for such, as a newly minted doctor, and since the word on the streets is it's cheaper to buy than rent, then we are at liberty to regard $923 per month as within the realm of, you know, could be.
what else is interesting about milwaukee?
from Wayne's World:
Wayne: So, do you come to Milwaukee often?
Alice Cooper: Well, I'm a regular visitor here, but Milwaukee has certainly had its share of visitors. The French missionaries and explorers began visiting here in the late 16th century.
Pete: Hey, isn't "Milwaukee" an Indian name?
Alice Cooper: Yes, Pete, it is. In fact, it was originally an Algonquin term meaning "the good land."
Wayne: I was not aware of that.
Alice Cooper: I think one of the most interesting things about Milwaukee is that it's the only American city to elect three Socialist mayors.
Wayne: Does this guy know how to party or what?!!
..............also: Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett is expected to unveil his ‘green’ vision for Milwaukee and discuss recommendations made by the Milwaukee Green Team in a speech on Monday, November 28th 11:30 a.m. at the Milwaukee Public Market, 400 N. Water Street... The Milwaukee Public Market is an exciting new icon and happens to be a ‘green’ building, with features that maximize daylight and other smart energy components. Mayor Barrett’s vision is about more than just buildings. It’s about our economy and about our environment.
..........and: Today Governor Jim Doyle called on Wisconsin citizens to submit questions to ask five top oil executives subpoenaed to testify at a Milwaukee gas gouging hearing on December 1st.
......however: Milwaukee Man found guilty of being drunk while operating an ice cream truck... will spend 150 days in jail. [The] forty-three year old... was also fined $1,000 after he showed up drunk during an earlier stage of the trial.
...well, it is wisconsin, after all - and my g-g-g-generation.
we class-say!
