Back in 2013, the City of La Crosse, in it's infinite wisdom, once again changed it's rules regarding snow removal on sidewalks.

And instead of enraging Brian, it really got to Shaw, who received a warning after a very light snow.

The Monday Morning Throwback - Shaw vs. the Man

Back in 2015, we had a LOT of road construction projects happening in La Crosse. No different than any other year, really.

But it did feel like we had a lot more that year than any other previous year.

So, we decided to play a round of "Open Or Closed - La Crosse Streets edition"

Shaw did pretty well! And if you're looking to see what roads are getting worked on now, click here. Or if you want to see what projects the city has in store, click here.

Three things to do

A short week with the holiday on Monday, but we still managed to pack a lot of stuff in four days of work.

We learned that Shaw bought a moped over the weekend, and we also learned a new, Gen-Z term. "Bed Rotting".

On the Tuesday edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about casinos in Vegas paying out less, a woman who won a cheese-rolling competition even though she was knocked unconscious, a drive-thru employee who had milk thrown on them, a kid who swallowed FORTY pieces of gum, and an 85 year old guy who tried to steal some condoms.

We talked about Swifties suffering from post-concert amnesia after seeing Taylor Swift, and we discussed Cellphone Zombies!

On the Wednesday edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about some sunglasses left on the dash of a car that did some serious damage, the seaweed in Florida has a flesh-eating pathogen, and a woman who assaulted a flight attendant & opened the plane door!

Plus, a couple of very funny stories about pranking a principal, and a Dad who embarrassed his kid on the last day of school.

We had a list of things to look forward to in the month of June, and on our Thursday edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a pig that fell off the back of a truck, an escaped inmate who was captured after he tried to get a $1 burger at McDonald's, more info on the person found dead in an Arby's freezer, a car that hit a house & sent the fridge flying through the other side into the neighbor's yard, and a moron who used a Nintendo Duck Hunt gun to commit a robbery.

Also, a great story about a kid who got a full ride to college, and a new list of things to do in & around La Crosse this weekend!

We discussed a new list of the best movie quotes of all time, and we found out about the "Gather of the Kyles", the "Council of Andrews", and "All the Brians". Weird.
