True Wisconsin Story

June 14, 2020 / Thomas Cannon author / Leave a comment

Well, its a work of fiction, but its essence is Wisconsin. Milking, fishing, and second jobs to support the farm. I also believe its feminism is also part of Wisconsin. The main character is an indpendent, strong-willed woman.

      Super Facts

      The goal of this blog is to create a list of super facts. Important facts that are true with very high certainty and yet surprising, misunderstood, or disputed by many. This blog aims to be challenging, educational, and fun, without it being clickbait. I determine veracity using evidence, data from reputable sources and longstanding scientific consensus. Prepare to be challenged (I am). Intentionally seek the truth not confirmation of your belief.
