that I don’t usually get to read the paper until after dinner (or even the next day). I telecommute so I’m rarely out of the house before noon, and I don’t subscribe to the paper (gives me a reason to leave the house for something:). Anyway that’s why it took me so long to tumble to this news story about the state budget. Mea culpa, caveat emptor, cave canem.
