Gas Pains
Tom grew up in Milwaukee, bartended in Wauwatosa in the '70s and moved here in 1984.
Commentary, observations and musings about the outdoors, life in general and maybe Tosa politics and personalities will be the order of the day. He savors a lively debate as much as terrific cooking.
Ladies and Gentlemen Take my Advice...
...pull down your pants and slide on the ice.
With all due respect to the sage advice of Dr. Sidney Freedman from the television series M*A*S*H* - please keep your pants on.
You might want to check out the ice at the Muellner Building located at Tosa's Hart Park.
Tosa curling is just around the corner.
The Wauwatosa Curling Club (WCC) has been a fixture in Wauwatosa since 1921.
I believe that would qualify the club as a significant part of Tosa's historical, cultural and social fabric.
Curling has been a part of Hart Park's Muellner Building since the early 1940s when the structure was built - specifically as a curling venue. Tosa curlers contributed to the cost of construction.
Nowadays the building is enjoyed by multiple users yet the WCC remains the city's longest-term tenant as occupant of the basement - and during the winter months - the large hall.
There are a couple of open houses scheduled for this month.
Check-out the sport that's sweeping the nation.

By the way - who can tell me how the Muellner Building got its name?
I'll post any responses in a couple of days.
