Speaking about fuel - there is one other significant thing to see in the middle of Kansas - abandoned gas stations. In the 70’s there was a gas station at virtually every exit from I-70. There was rarely anything else not even farm houses. Most of the exits did not seem to lead to any […]

The TCS Wastebasket
Congress Needs to Take On Cost Overruns — Too often, the lawmakers can’t agree on where there is waste in government.

The Democrats in the NH Senate are balking on a bill to take away the driver’s licenses of sex offenders who refuse to comply with the sex offender registry laws.

State rep. Nancy Warren arrested again
