That's not Ward Allen next to Albert the Alley Cat in #10, that's Tom Skilling who did weekends back then.

it's on 51st and Lincoln in West Allis. Nothing to fear beyond our south side accent and misuse of words. Be sure to get yourself some ham and rolls!

I spent a lot of time in that part of town after graduation.  I preferred that place to Water Street and the east side.

Oh, Sampson.....

I made my first visit to the Milwaukee Zoo a few weeks after I arrived on campus.  I had never heard of him until I walked into the Ape house.  Sampson was pacing in his glass cage, and then we made eye contact.  He picked up a rubber hose and flung it as hard as he could directly at me. Luckily the glass was Sampson-proof, but the loud "boom" scared the p!ss out of me, almost literally.

A few days later, it was big news all over Milwaukee that Sampson had died of a heart attack.  I am sure he was brokenhearted after I did not respond favorably to his show of brute strength.

Later that semester, I delivered a eulogy of Sampson in speech class.  I played it up to the hilt (dressed in black from head to toe, sobbing into a lace handkerchief), and had the class in hysterics.  It's still probably one of the best public speaking engagements I have ever done.

As a side note, you can visit Sampson's taxidermied remains at the Milwaukee Public Museum.  So technically, you actually can see him in Milwaukee again.

I remember going with my wife to something called "The Fruit Boat." I think they changed the name to Pride or Rainbow in the '90's.
