Hey, everyone. This is your last chance to participate in the Weekly’s upcoming Get Out of Town! edition. While my last post about this got a few incomprehensible screeds intriguing comments, we did not get very many — and one of the few good suggestions is already being done by a staffer. So … if you want to kick someone or something out of town, give me your two cents in the comments section. Your suggestion just might appear in the dead-tree version. Get thee to it!

Okay, I have a good one: get rid of the overkill political telemarketers. Restrict how often a candidate can call with a pre-recorded message. My house got an average of three calls from one of the candidates each day over the span of a week or so leading up to the primaries – and that does not include the other candidates who would call asking for my vote. I consider it abuse.

Get rid of the border patrol??? Please elaborate. Surely you have something in mind to replace them.
S.K.: Seriously … please elaborate. I’d love to hear what you have to say.
