I’ve a few regular features at my sites, and am pleased to add another: cartoons from Mark Anderson, whose creations have been published in major magazines, for corporate communications, and as greeting cards. One of his cartoons will appear on its own at least weekly at my websites, and others will appear within posts.

Whitewater’s Tuesday will be mostly sunny, with a high of twenty-nine. We’ll have 9h 23m of sunlight, 10h 26m of daylight, with a waxing crescent moon.

Common Council meets tonight at 6:30 PM.

On this day in 1967, the Packers played and won their first Super Bowl:

LOS ANGLES, Jan. 15 — Bryan Bartlett (Bart) Starr, the quarterback for the Green Bay Packers, led his team to a 35-10 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs today in the first professional football game between the champions of the National and American Leagues.

Doubt about the outcome disappeared in the third quarter when Starr’s pretty passes made mere Indians out of the American League Chiefs and Green Bay scored twice.

Those 14 points stretched Green Bay’s lead to 28-10 and during the final quarter many of the spectators in the crowd of 63,036 left Memorial Coliseum which had been only two-thirds filled.

The outcome served to settle the curiosity of the customers, who paid from $6 to $12 for tickets, and a television audience estimated at 60 million….

Google-a-Day asks readers to field a baseball question: “What was the jersey number of the center-fielder who led the Phillies to their fifth National League pennant in 1993?”
