This week's new insanity: HR414, requiring camera phones to make a sound when a photo is taken. For my hearing challenged friends I propose a 1,000 candle power flash, and for the Helen Keller would-be's, a phone that vibrates at a 4.2 on the richter scale. Problem solved.

My letter to Congressman Price on HR45: criminals already break laws, so more laws won't stop them from getting guns, and I loathe the thought of Georgia being reduced to the level of New York. The cruelest part is the bill's name.

New York City requires tenants to tell the city if children live in the apartment so the landlord can install window guards, and to enter and check if they don't. A responsible parent would just request them. If anything can be regulated, it will be.

There's a national crisis nobody is addressing: freerice.com. I ran the numbers. At roughly 24 cents of donated rice per hour against minimum wage, you'd do more good shoveling your neighbor's driveway.
