The Glorious Acts of Our Legislature


I always have to remember to take a deep breath when examining the laws being proposed by our grand Legislature. I detest most of the new legislation on the table, but have to forgive our representatives in the House and Senate for it. After all, writing laws is what a Legislature does, and if they don�t write enough laws, it can begin to look like they�ve been loafing.


Noah can now get himself into the vehicle and he wants to go everywhere.This begs the significant philosophical question: Why bother?Creating Family Memories with a Wheelchair Accessible VanBy Mike Kole

http://www.writersbureau.org�I've never been happier. I didn't want the responsibility of being manager because Olivia�s condition is getting worse.�Isn�t it sufficient that citations can already be issued if the use of a cell phone is the cause of an accident? Why pile on? No harm, no foul: If the use of a cell phone isn�t endangering anyone in the moment, why penalize for the harm that was not caused?The technicians and Mobility Specialists at Liberty Motor Company are committed to providing individuals and families better access to safe and reliable transportation. Of course, Olivia knows with certainty who owns the van, especially since the van carries a nameplate that Frank, Mobility Specialist with Liberty Motor Company, mounted to the dashboard just for her. That special touch was just what Olivia needed to feel comfortable with the van.�When Olivia saw the plaque Frank put in, that was it. It reads �Olivia�s van�. She says it's her van. She just loves it�, Anna recalls.Representative Vanessa Summers, an Indianapolis Democrat, has introduced legislation that would prohibit the use of cell phones, making exceptions for hands-free devices and for emergency use. The proposed fine for violations of the law would be up to $25.�Going into the zoo, you see the animals and when you leave, you pass through the gift shop. Of course, we had to buy her the pink flamingo from the pile of stuffed animals. Yes, Olivia rules the roost, but Oh my God, she's a very happy kid!�Could we really ban Britney Spears CDs? I digress.�Even if it's just going to buy a bag of milk, Noah has to come along because it's his van,� says his mother.Spinal Muscular Atrophy is a neuromuscular condition in which the cells of the spinal column and brain stem deteriorate over time, eventually causing complete paralysis.What is emergency use? I define emergency use of a cell phone as a frantic call to a friend because I suddenly had two tickets offered to me for a Colts� playoff game, and I have to accept within five minutes, or the tickets will be passed on to a co-worker. My wife defines it as having found a deal on furniture, and she�s on her way home so I can look at fabric swatches. I�m betting that this is not what the Representative has in mind. Some revisions will be in order.Noah has taken that bond and his relationship with Frank, to heart. Frank brought Noah a plush toy lion, which he's named Leo, because Noah is so very brave. He and Frank have formed a close friendship and they regularly speak on the telephone and keep in touch via e-mail.Let�s hope this Bill dies in committee. If it passes, Summers will run for re-election in 2006 on the basis of having produced this wonderful law� and of having been suitably busy.
