More Ohio Legislature and Gambling
  A bit of a follow up (see below) on the Ohio legislature banning games of chance at the local VFW or other similar clubs. According to the law that was passed, no cash could be won via those types of machines. Leave it to the peoples ability to overcome, they found that giving gas card awards rather than money was indeed still legal.

I'm sure the legislature will soon protect us from this dangerous oversight.

Thanks John Grisham.
In is book, "The Appeal" there is a story about parents of an injured Little Leaguer suing the Little League and the manufacturer of the metal bat that worked too well. We now have a suit (real life)against the Little League and the retailer who sold a metal bat that was used to hit a line drive that struck the chest of the teams pitcher. The impact caused the pitcher to stop breathing for 20 minutes resulting in permanent brain damage.
More to come.

Ohio Legislature and Gambling Congratulations to the Ohio legislature for proving that they will do stuff just so they don't go home early. I'm sure everyone in this great state of Ohio was gravely concerned that games of chance in the local VFW hall was paying out more than $10. If was keeping me awake nights worrying about adults who were being spoiled by the riches earned on those high-tech emissaries of evil. The best part of that is, the second time someone is caught moving into a new tax bracket by winning over $10, the owner of the machine will be charged with a felony. So, if you can't win money on a video game, might as well go to a strip club. Oh wait, the legislature wasn't sleeping on this one either. You can still go to the club, but you're not allowed closer than 6 feet of the dancers and the club will now close at midnight.

I feel safer.
