The recent controversy over Stacy Hintz being removed from her volunteer positions in Girl Scouts because of her involvement with Wisconsin Sickness has brought national attention (and fear) to the dark and disturbing music and art we create here in Wisco.

Though completely by accident, it is no small accomplishment to have local news channels, radio stations, the Huffington Post and other online media outlets, as well as the Anderson show using words such as satanic, serial killers, cannibalism and zombie porn in reference to this humble little backwoods internet outhouse.

Come out, join the cult and celebrate the sickness Friday, April 20th, 2012 at River Horse West in West Bend with Stacy, some of the sexy and deviant Cannibelles and a night of killer music by Living Dred, [the] commuter exit, The Mood Manual and Sonic J.

Show starts at 8pm.

PLUS: Win a Wisconsin Sickness tattoo from our friends at Northern Lights Tattoos!

Clintonville, WI is suddenly getting global media attention due to mysterious explosions and unexplained shaking, which is rattling homes and household objects. The CNN article quoted Clintonville resident Verda Shultz: "It's like we're imagining things but it ain't, because we're all out and talking to find out what's going on."

This all began Sunday night in the Northeast corner of town.

Despite the vibrations felt by residents, U.S. Geological Survey records show no seismic activity anywhere in Wisconsin Sunday or Monday.

What do you think, is Clintonville going to become a giant sinkhole like Nikki Farce is hoping?

UPDATE: It has been confirmed that a 1.5 magnitude earthquake struck Clintonville Tuesday just after midnight. Officials stated they don't believe such a minor quake is usually heard or felt, but it is slightly possible.

A meeting was held last week with the parents of our daughter's Girl Scout troop, to which we were not invited, to decide how to proceed in light of recent events. Though the original troop has been dissolved in order to change the troop number, parents have apparently stepped up to lead the new troop.

Stacy and I attended a meeting yesterday called by Girl Scouts to discuss the future of our daughter in the organization. We met with two members of the Milwaukee area council who have been involved in this situation, including chief program officer Mary Black, who sent Stacy the official notification of her removal from her volunteer positions within Girl Scouts.

They offered for our daughter to join this new troop and remain with the girls she has been participating with since kindergarten. However, Stacy will only be allowed to pick up and drop off for meetings, events and outings. They asked that she has no other involvement with the troop.
