Subject: It's great that they have 10 contestants for a decent show,
In reply to: DD 's message, "Re: Um. . . this is only July 17. Their competition is still 2 months away!" on 21:28:51 08/08/25 Fri

Three of the contestants (sorry, I hate the word delegates) have competed multiple times at La Crosse, only to have never placed or won. I'm not sure what their incentive is to continue, unless they just enjoy competing for the heck of it. Five of them have held local titles before, so I'd say they definitely have an advantage going into this. One of them would be worn out by the end of the first week of Oktoberfest if she were to win. Another one was 2nd runner-up to Miss Wisconsin . . .hmmmm. I'm sure they'll once again have a decent show and a full house, but it would be nice if there were some new faces competing. With three colleges in town there has to be some other deserving young women out there that would like the honor of being Miss La Crosse-Oktoberfest. That's where active recruiting and actually getting into the colleges and schools to explain the program is important

- Well it was not Jeff, as a reliable source told me that he is in hospice care battling -- pancreatic cancer. He is in his 50s, sort of young for this., 15:24:03 08/24/25 Sun
  - Sort of correct as actually he is under hospice care for serious stage four prostate cancer. -- Best estimated time is about three to four months., 10:58:45 09/30/25 Tue
    - What is three to four months? -- KN, 12:05:25 10/08/25 Wed
      - The time he has to live which is always hard to predict. However, he and ex-President Joe Biden -- should have gotten health checks before stage-4 diagnosis, 11:40:07 10/10/25 Fri
        Well if true, he has three to four months to live---he may die on the day of the -- 2026 Miss Madison pageant scheduled January 17, 2026., 12:02:17 10/22/25 Wed
        We know Jeff is not the director of Miss Madison, but it is his hometown pageant and it would -- be such a bizarre circumstance if he would die on Jan. 17th., 11:34:03 10/30/25 Thu
        One that was more bizarre is when former co-director of Miss Oshkosh, Gert Schultz died on -- March 12, 2016--very day of the 2016 Miss Oshkosh pageant, 11:39:41 10/30/25 Thu
        Click-in for the obituary for Gert Raube Schultz where it says that she and John went to AC prior -- to his death, opposed to when he was dead? Dumb writing., 11:49:58 10/30/25 Thu
