I wish I could hear the water cooler conversations during this break right now 
I got new belts on my car today; got oil changed and inspected yesterday ... I may need to go to the Capitol ...
I noticed that's twice Wentworth either quoted or used logic I first presented in comments on various news posts; I ought to meet him and introduce myself as my screen name/s

I wonder if she was testing the waters, or if she really thought she was in Oz and everyone would shoot down Wentworth's amendment.

I TOLD Zaffrini if she'd be the 21st vote on Suspending rules on SB 354 that she would have had no problem on SB 5 but did she listen? nooooooooooo she didn't want to save money for schools on insurance and afford/give them more protections by giving them new immunities ....
It's her own fault.
