I love this photo of Wauwatosa Mayor Jill Didier's swearing in. It's so . . . lively and unconventional. And it practically cries for inventive captioning.
Judge rescues woman from attackers
Child, husband, try to stop mom
Many rush to help as woman collapses
Gang creates diversion in Tosa pickpocketing crime spree
I'm sure you can come up with better ones. Meanwhile, I'll just congratulate Jill and wish her the best as I ponder the unintended stories in this candid tableau. One, from famous Milwaukee ex-pat politician Golda Meir, seems especially apt:
At work, you think of the children you've left at home. At home, you
think of the work you've left unfinished. Such a struggle is unleashed
within yourself, your heart is rent.
Here's to doing good work anyway, rent hearts and all!
