I just want to say the grounds of our capital are pretty nice, but I hope there are plans in the renovations to add more seating and greenery around all the grounds. The limited number of tables and benches are already all taken up by folks working on nice days. There seems to be a lot of demand for an outdoor place to work just outside the capitol, and it wouldn’t be that expensive to accommodate a few more tables and some simple shelters (even just umbrellas and tables).

I hope Oscar has special clearance to bypass the mags and walk right in and stand in the rotunda to review the activity.

Oscar: I look better here than that tall guy up there who looks stoned.

Hey, if we can vote for a new state flag, time to vote for me for a new logo.
Sorry Oscar, I’m voting for the one where Rich shoots laser beams from his eyes and the slogan is Bite Me.
