About Vivian J. Paige

A former candidate, I've learned a lot about politics, both good and bad. I'd prefer more of the former and a lot less of the latter and I'm trying to do my part!

  1. My favorite new law is the one that gives the right to vote to some dead people.

    If you cast an absentee ballot but die before election day it has to be counted.

    Worst idea is the one allowing motorcyles, mo-peds and bikes to legally run red lights.

  2. I’m curious to see how many people take advantage of the BYOB thing. Will the corkage fee end up being too high to make this work?

  3. It will be interesting to see how employers handle the new law that allows someone to take out a protective order on a co-worker who has threatened them. If a co-worker threatens to “f— you up” (real example), it might be the only way for an employee to get that reassignment that has been previously denied them.

  4. I saw a sign for a corkage fee at Greenies last night….guess you can bring your own “Boone’s Farm” now
