Yes, Kendall, I hear you. It would be unthinkable, of course, to suggest that government red tape and a multitude of federal regulations imposed on those same corporations by our government might be contribibuting to the high cost of gasoline. Right? The Federal Government can do no wrong, of course.

As to capital punishment, I come down on the side of the majority in this country, and share Bald Eagle and Jed's views. I would not back away for a minute from watching them put the needle in the man's arm who murdered my mother-in-law. They never found him of course.
