Sick Day in Milwaukee

Well, I caught whatever my wife had over the weekend (chills, cough, slight fever, etc.) and I generally feel like *ish* ... I guess that qualifies for being sick, huh?

I did go into the office briefly this morning, but it was apparent that I was not going to be be very productive. To make matters worse, I'm on the road in frigid Milwaukee... miles from home.

So I came back to the hotel room, took a few calls, downed a double-shot of Nyquil... and now I'm off to dreamland for a couple of hours.

There's nothing worse than being a sick stranger in a strange land... I'll try it again tomorrow.

Wisconsin Primary

The Great State of Wisconsin joins Hawaii and Washington state for te next round of primaries. Not quite as sexy as Super Tuesday or not as catchy as the Potomac Primaries, this is a very important primary contest. If Barack Obama can continue his winning streak, that will mean the Hillary Clinton will not have won a primary or caucus since Super Tuesday three weeks ago.

plezWorld is in Milwaukee, WI this week and the Obama Campaign is making a serious push to win the state. In the last 60 minutes, I have seen four Obama commercials and zero Clinton commercials. According to the state's governor, Clinton has only shown up in the state for two days while Obama has had a presence in the state since Super Tuesday.

Obama should win the contest and continue his momentum that began in South Carolina. If Clinton pulls out a win, it will be a pretty big upset and could pump new energy into her campaign. We'll see what happens.

Before & After

Before - Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport (ATL)

Earlier today, plezWorld had to fly up to Milwaukee, WI to begin a project. When I left Atlanta, it was close to 60 degrees. When I landed in Milwaukee two hours later, it was close to 20 degrees and it had been snowing all day. What a difference a couple of hours makes!

After - General Mitchell International Airport (MKE)
