29 May chase under a Severe TS watch

By From http://stormsrus.blogspot.com/ • May 30th, 2009 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

After all was said and done yesterday I was a bit miffed at myself for not being patient enough to wait out the storms in the original intercept spot I’d selected in southeastern Fauquier county. I knew the line was building just east of the Blue Ridg…

Well, I can’t access my blog, or any blogs, without using a proxy sneak server. Now, I can’t upload photos. So for the time being, not much here until the firewall eases. I’m off to backpack and travel for a few weeks. Photos to come.

Congratulations, Alabama

You can now get good beer. Alabama recently repealed their absurd law that beer that exceeded 6% alcohol could not be sold. This rules out many, if not most, of the best beers in the world. This is a good example of alcohol regulation that does more harm than good – by treating beer as a harmful beverage, Alabamans could not get exposed to beer that is more about the taste than the alcohol, further promoting the idea that beer is only for getting buzzed. It looks like the Alabama legislature finally wised up to the idea that if you treat alcohol as a dangerous beverage then people will behave irresponsibly with it.

John Brownlee claims he wants to “reduc[e] drug dependency”, but why did he oppose the building of a drug treatment clinic in Roanoke County?

I should preface this post with this statement: If someone is selling (distributing) illegal narcotics, I think they should be locked up in prison for an appropriate amount of time. If someone is arrested for using or possessing illegal drugs, I also believe that they should be locked up unless they have a genuine desire […]
