Brain drain

From a Milwaukee Journal Sentinel report on the perception of statewide "brain drain":


Anonymous Commenter: 911sfan

Anonymous Comment: "If you do happen to stay in Wisconsin and start a successful business you can be sure some reporter from the Milwaukke Journal will come snooping around to find out what you did wrong in order to get rich. With luck they wil win a reporting award and get an offer form a big coastal paper with double the pay. Then it will be Wisconsin in the rearview mirror. Wisconsin loves to eat the successful--bring them down a peg so everyone feels equal."

Probable Bio: We're going to go out on a limb here, and guess that 911sfan is a white, middle-aged half-wit who isn't successful, isn't rich, and isn't even trying anymore. He's a longtime resident of "Milwaukke" (no, we're not above typo humor here at AnonComm), and the living embodiment of both "voting against your interests," and "a night in Joe Buck's laundry hamper." Though he's never won a coveted "reporting award," 911sfan considers himself something of an amateur journalist, having once penned a piece for his high school newspaper entitled "Fags, Queers & That Cocksucker Who Keyed My Camaro: A Critique." In his downtime (and let's not kid ourselves, most of his time is downtime), he enjoys yard work, drooling, and haunting the waking dreams of TV's Marc Summers.
