Happy Father’s Day

June 21st, 2009

Happy Fathers Day everyone. My son Johnny was home for the weekend and as we traditionally do, we worked together on a project around the house. We spent the entire day working on a stone walkway that I started along time ago. We got it just about finished after seven hours of pretty heavy work. The Sunday newspapers were full of budget stories including a oft mentioned rumor/theory of balancing the budget with the expansion of gambling to include table games. This would be a long shot, in my opinion, but you never can tell who might vote for something after some pressure is applied. For this theory to come to fruition, you would have to have the votes, and I’m not sure you would, and you would have to have a system that enables the state to get substantial money during the 2009/2010 budget year. It will be interesting to see what opposition this issue receives now that it is being made more public. Count me in as one of the opposition.
