Meanwhile, at the legislature

For you raw milk fans, Rep. Pricey Harrison expects her bill disapproving the Ag Board's pet milk rule will be heard by the House Ag committee on Wednesday.

It's going to get worst! Julia has a big time problem. It appears there is a vast income issue [IRS 2006 return] and a high flying life style raising it's ugly head.
