Wisconsin History, Neurotic Behavior, Canadian Mystery

NonFiction

A Short History of Wisconsin by Erika Janik. Recent publication from the WI Historical Press. State history in 200 pages with a long recommended reading list. Super Quentin says the Wisconsin state bird is the robin.

Badger Boneyards: the eternal rest of the story by Dennis McCann. Doug More wrote a column on the author and book. Not to be confused with the Boneyard.

People Their Places and Things: 50 more tales from Lake Mills, 2010 by Roland Liebenow, M.D. We have one copy to check out. A second copy in reference. A third copy hidden away if some weaselly jerk steals the first two copies. Thieving weasels.

DVD

Wisconsin Vietnam War Stories by Wisconsin Public Television. Interviews with Wisconsin veterans. A really good program.

Curb Your Enthusiasm: the complete seventh season starring Christian Slater, Rosie O'Donnell, Ted Danson, Richard Lewis, Michael Richards, Jerry Seinfeld, others.
