After careful and ample consideration, I’ve decided to decamp from Minneapolis and return to my childhood home of Green Bay. If I stay in this city much longer, my transformation into an effete, snotty urbanite who can’t stop raving about that Hungarian period piece he saw at the Lagoon will be complete. I need to rediscover my roots; I need to be in a town where the living is simple and the air bears the faint tang of the paper mill. A town where the biggest musical event of the year is the Poison reunion concert at the county arena.
Of course, this means I’ll have to change the name of this blog. It wouldn’t be fitting for a town where the tallest building is eight or nine stories. I’ll notify everyone of the new moniker once it’s finalized. Right now, iheartthepackers.com is the leading contender.

Whhhaaaaattt??????? are you not getting enough cheese here in Minnesota? What sick bargain will we have to make to keep you here???
Hey Mark,
Let’s make a cow-tipping date to celebrate your return to God’s country.

Whaaaaaa? OhMeOhMyOh! At any rate – best wishes on your move – Minnesota will miss ya!
The countryside, anywhere in the world, is always the best place to be – provided you can get a visit fix of the city once in a while.
So, how soon before you move?
You almost had me there for a second…and then I made note of the date. Nice try!
Doh !
