Really, what gives? I know of what I write, and it smells like a feedlot down here.

Move out east if you don't appreciate our dairy air.

As the old saying goes, the one who smelt it is the one who dealt it.

I'm sure it was some farmer not too far outside of town spreading manure for his winter alfalfa, and the wind and air conditions were just right to bring the stench across the lake.

Yes, I noticed that today also in the Williamson/Marquette neighborhood. Lasted almost all day!!! Very smelly!!!

I noticed it on campus AND all the way when I drove out to the west side. Smelled like cow...

hmmm, seems this odor arose about the time Obama & entourage were in town. I'm not slinging anything, just saying something smells funny here.

Maybe it emanated from the Capitol...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.

It smells really bad. Not like farm, but like porta-potties at a festival. I endured this all through my morning bike commute - maybe that's why most people drive or take the bus?
