Yummy lunch at Yaffa I urge everyone to get out of the office for an hour to grab some lunch and take a stroll on Milwaukee's beautful Rverwalk while the weather is still nice.

Much to my surprise on this sleepy Friday afternoon, I flip open the chalky, matte pages of the cumbersome print edition of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (Thursday's ed...

The A.D.D. Generation Straddling the gray line of GenX and GenY, I am torn as to where my loyalties lay.
