We're off to the SEMA Show today, so no time for photos ... but bear with us, anyway. Thanks!
Okay America! Breathe out! It's over. No more Palin, Plumber or McCain.
Back to business:
With a state-wide victory for President-elect Barack Obama (I like typing that) a foregone conclusion here in California, it was, as it's been so many times in the past, the California ballot's propositions which garnered much of the attention.
We in California have turned the "state-wide proposition" into an art form of sorts. And yesterday there were twelve of them on our ballots, from National City in the southern part of the state to Carmel on the Central Coast and up to Yuba City, north of Sacramento.
Three of the twelve props were about energy and transportation. Two of my favorite topics.
Proposition 1A was entitled the Safe, Reliable High-Speed Train Bond Act, and who could argue with that? Imagine - A Bullet Train between Los Angeles and Las Vegas! A "gambler's special" which will get you from Union Station in downtown LA (you've all seen it a thousand times in films and TV shows) to Lost Wages, Nevada in under two hours.
