Maybe its really the other side of the coin. Maybe our private sector employees get paid too little. Years ago the scenario being touted about Las Vegas was that work was so plentiful and good, even a maid could buy a house. When I moved here 8 years ago......I found out that unless you wanted to work for a casino.....it was hard to find a job that paid a wage that would allow you to pay the high rent/mortgage and still have a life. Maybe we should be looking at what private sector workers (both union & non-union and executive & "clerical") are making compared to the cost of living here.

Now that the special session has been delayed and shortened......maybe the 10th question should be: Is the governor dumb like a fox?

Of course he is using this as a ploy to keep eyes off his ridiculousness. But should that stop the legislators from leading? I think they should stop their whining. Most of them have been "legislating" longer than he has been "governing"........so this is as much their problem, if not more, than it is his and they ought to be willing to go to work and fix it. And we elected these people, so maybe we are getting what we deserve. No wonder term limits is such a popular idea!

Maybe term limits can't come too soon. The lack of leadership, not only from the governor, but especially from the legislators who have been around longer than he has, is really, really sad. This is why the public goes for term limits......we can't seem to get the losers voted out of office. I read Buckley is considering running for governor, geeeez, more lack of leadership on the horizon.

The "fans" are almost as much fun to watch at a race as the race itself.

It seems like a lot of the fans are like Jr's fans.......if their driver isn't winning, they don't care what happens. Seems like it isn't Nascar/racing itself they like, but are just jumping on the bandwagon of a very newly popular sport and the particular "stars" of the sport.
