Nevada Vetopalooza and Legislative Session Continues

Members of the Nevada Legislature's leadership are vowing, once more, that they will wrap up and go Sine Die on time. [RGJ] The legislature is limited to 120 days, and this is the 120th. As much fun as it might be to spend the day listening in on the Senate and Assembly floor sessions, there are some pressing matters on the Home Front that preclude live-blogging until later this evening. A reminder: The legislature has its own little "C-SPAN" like webcasts the links to which are located here. Note, please, that to view these you need Windows Media Player, and a minimum 56K connection.

  • A Reno Safeway not only had a run on all their hand sanitizer Wednesday but has been wiped out of face masks too.  One customer was actually seen wearing one.
  • Do you think posts like this from Anjeanette Damon make Joe Heck, Barbara Buckley and any other 2010 Silver State gubernatorial hopeful smile (and Nevadans just shake their head sadly).
  • This has to to be one of the more brutal movie reviews this year.  Christy Lemire's opening lines for "Limits of Control" are priceless (and the 405 stunk back in the '80s!).
