• I'm a little late on this one, but do check out Martini Boy's problems with Bobby Jindahl's latest bit of legislative largesse down in Lousiana. The relevant posts can be found here, and here. Make sure to clicky through on all the links, too.

And now I'm off to make my hip hurt by walking around the lake!
