Odd Wisconsin Archive
Winter Break
As 2009 comes to its close, Odd Wisconsin's staff are hunkering down far from the office on the annual mid-winter break. It's time for reruns. Because we know there are loyal readers who can't do without a weekly dose of historical distraction, we offer this selection of strange stories from the previous 12 months:
So Cold Their Noses Fell Off
The Deep Freeze of 1838
Psychic Dogs and Naked Chickens (by the way, a large selection of photographs taken just after this tornado destroyed New Richmond has just gone up at Wisconsin Historical Images)
Wyocena: It Came To Him in a Dream
St. Damien's Wisconsin Assistant
Nation's First Quints Born in Wisconsin
Disposable Fashion
