With the greatest possible respect, please tell me how a reasonably intelligent human being could possibly come to the conclusion that you're *NOT* a hypocrite when we look at these two statements (one where you were reading a clumsily prepared written excuse after the veto override vote that could have been ghost-written by Speaker Moore and the one you told the voters in the district you were hoping to represent): "Some call me a hypocrite…

I'm not going to sugarcoat it: this bit of unwelcome news was probably the worst gut punch I've gotten in quite a while. Gordon Lightfoot has passed away at the age of 84.…

After finally getting the EMAIL notification from the Secretary of State that it was time to make the second journey downtown to take the official oaths of office (which was delayed about a month by my own epic brain fart), today was the day that I'd take up the commission as an Electronic Notary Public. This is a relatively new enhancement for a traditional notary where the entire notarial act is done electronically using an…
