On Born and Raised –Gen X in Janesville
Posted on November 10 at 10:23 a.m. ( Suggest removal )
I never said Janesville was a small town. Janesville is great and if you don't like it here then move. That's all I am saying.
As a community, we need people that want to make this place better and not tear it down with negativity.

Grew up here. Graduated from Parker in 86. One son graduated in 2008, another will graduate this year. Johnqpublic obvioulsy does not live in the same Janesville I do. I will not deny that Janesville is not Mayberry. But most people here are decent hard working people who would give you the shirt off their backs. Mr. Knox is one of them. Crime in Janesville is very small. Drugs are everywhere. It's a fact of life. It's not hard to avoid them or keep yourself in situations that have positive outcomes.
People who live in small towns and villages, and then move to a city of 50,000 people should expect some differences once they open their eyes.

Be a great story for THE GAZETTE. Go ask the YMCA and it's board why they no longer support the triathlon and the half marathon. If it has to do with the issue of competing, then just make them for fun with no awards. I bet you would still get a huge turn out. Make the half marathon course 2 loops and you woud have a GREAT marathon course for Janesville to support.
In fact we should all be asking ourselves why the Y no longer supports these 2 great events.

Don't ever count out the C-Train and McMann. EVER.
It's going to be a slugfest.

Don't count Parker out. C-Train and Luke McMann have other plans.

If you don't like Janesville and the way things are done or not done, or the taxes or blah blah blah..then MOVE. It's amazing what can be done when no one cares who gets the credit.
Kids are our future whether you like it or not. The schools were needed and are awesome. Oh and by the way, times change and just because something was done when you went to school doesn't mean it should still be done that way. The private showers are a great thing. I'm proud to live in Janesville and very proud of my community. I support the things that are happening to make it better. The schools were just the start. Keep the projects coming.

On Influential Janesville teacher dies unexpectedly

Mr. Cain will truly be missed by this community.
For all you Mercy bashers, you really should hold your comments until the facts are known. Underlying medical conditions do exist in people.
And when this new hospital is done, you need to realize that people will die there too. And then when we bash that hospital, maybe we can get a third or even a fourth hospital to please all these whiners who see nothing but the negative.
For every 1 person who has a bad Mercy experience, there are 99 out there who have had a great experience. You don't get the Baldridge award for being a bunch of screw ups.
I, and members of my immediate family, have had nothing but positive experiences with the surgeons and the care received at Mercy.
If you don't like the medical options of Janesville, or the taxes of Janesville, or the educational system of Janesville, or how they remove snow, or the government of the city, you have 2 options...Bury yourself in a pinewood box or MOVE. Please don't let the door hit you on the way out.
