My grandson had his 11th birthday late last month and I was looking for something to entertain him beside taking him to the IMAX theater to see "Batman Begins."

So we walked a couple of blocks to the Crapitol. My longtime friend, State Senator Dave Cox (Republican Minority Leader) just happened to be in his office and took us into the Senate chambers and had his staffer take pictures which he later emailed to us.

While we were mugging for the camera, in walked ol pistol packin Perata (Dem Majority Leader) and of course Dave just had to introduce us. So we were practically forced to shake his hand. I couldn't wait to get to the men's room afterward to wash up!!!

Being civil and polite to criminals is such difficult duty!!! Yuck!!!

Anyway, my grand daughter was so disappointed she didn't git ta meet the terminator! Got her picture taken with the CHP dude in front of the Governor's office. Pretty cheap birthday entertainment looking up into the dome where their electrician uncle had worked on the wiring during the rebuild a few years ago.

Sorry to hear that. Dishonest man if you ask me. An organization I belong to has a history with this man and I would trust him about as far as I could throw him.
