Here's more evidence that we need a part-time Legislature in California: It took lawmakers almost six months to come up with a phony budget, which Gov. Jerry Brown vetoed within hours of its passage. Part-timers couldn't have done any worse, and likely would have solved the problem.
There were many things that helped Assemblyman Danny Gilmore, R-Hanford, decide he wasn't cut out for the petty world of the California Legislature.
My idea of a vacation is to head to the coast, park the car for a week and walk to the beach. I suppose it says a lot when I get great pleasure in not worrying about gassing up the car, where to park or whether I'll have to leave someplace early to beat the traffic home.
