Really now Chris, "their uncanny resemblance to a Snickers bar floating in a public pool" is not good salesmanship, but this might be a good recipe for my daughter, Butch, who decided to go vegan for lent. I'll pass it on to him/her.

Mike Boss' column was indeed a “must read” but in reference to #'s 2 and 3 you might find this a must read also

I'd actually go a bit farther than Vickie Holbrook when she says “I'm all for charter schools, but the per-pupil funding should be the same, dollar for dollar” and argue that charter schools should get less.

Charter schools siphon of the best and brightest that are motivated and easy to teach leaving behind the special needs kids, the bilingual education, and the rest of the unmotivated morons that the charters won't take.

The same goes for the voucher system and privatization of schools. A voucher system will never totally replace public education and in the end just drive up the per pupil costs at the public schools.

It's to bad that the KTVB web site doesn't allow comments on their posts, so I'll have to do it here.

When Jim Gilchriest, Executive News Director at KTVB posts “Our responsibility as journalists is to report the news as we know it” just substitute '“sensationalists” for “ journalists”.

Sisyphus, you accuse Chris of postulation and “believe the votes can be had” while the Dems are hopelessly out numbered in the Idaho Legislature? At least Chris said, earlier, that “I suck at teh math”.

I'd love to see a coalition government but it's unlikely to happen in Idaho during my lifetime.

Here’s to a long life and a merry one.
A quick death and an easy one.
A pretty girl and an honest one.
A cold beer—and another one!

The list of events for St. Patrick's day doesn't include my favorite spot. My 2 daughters are Irish dancers and after 5 or 6 performances today they end up dancing for tips at 'Ha Penny in BoDo with live Irish music. It's been fun raising them with traditional values like dancing in pubs starting at age 10.

Here's a link to a pic of them meeting with <a http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_1Mml5ivQhaM/Sba919eA8rI... Butch my daughter is the tall one on his left.

Sportsman's Warehouse is not local and drove one local business out. Shooting World in west Boise couldn't compete and ended up selling out to a SLC company.

Oh boy, going to have to watch The Daily Show this week, Stewart ain't going to let that one go by. I didn't know Tucker was still on the air, at least he got rid of the silly bow ties.
