AggieDave 6 #1 February 10, 2005 The summary is that "low riding" jeans are now legally banned. I honestly say, who cares? What if they tried to ban cowboy boots and rodeo buckles? Are there not much more important things the state legislator could be working towards solving then just people who like to wear their jeans low with their boxers showing? http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2005/02/09/politics/main672682.shtml--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Rebecca 0 #4 February 10, 2005 Maybe the legislature was too distracted by visible ass and underwear to get any work done. Now that's taken of, so they can get down to bidniss. Way to go Virginia!! Just say no to crack! you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although I don't believe a law should be passed. I want to see some plumbers or other large workers with pants that fall low due to a tool belt and crack gets shown to get fined...then the unions get pissed off and take this law on.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

AndyMan 7 #8 February 10, 2005 In other news, Virginia moves one step closer to passing legislation honoring the "big eared bat". I swear, I can't make this stuff up. http://www.salon.com/news/wire/2005/02/10/va_bat/index.html QuoteFeb. 10, 2005 | Richmond, Va. -- Legislation honoring the Virginia big-eared bat moved one step closer to passage Wednesday. On a unanimous voice vote, the state Senate General Laws Committee endorsed Del. Jackie T. Stump's bill designating the endangered species as the official state bat. Stump, D-Buchanan, said the idea was offered by the Virginia Cave Board as a tool for educating Virginians about caves and the creatures that inhabit them. Stump said a bat can devour 600 mosquitoes per hour, helping prevent the spread of West Nile virus. However, Cave Board member Claire Ward said the Virginia big-eared bat prefers moths. The Virginia big-eared bat can be found in caves in mountainous areas of Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky and North Carolina. Ward said about 1,500 to 2,200 live in Virginia. At least one other state, Texas, has an official bat: the Mexican free-tailed bat. Sen. Walter Stosch, R-Henrico, said he was reminded of the 1993 session when then-Del. George Grayson of James City County proposed legislation naming an official state fossil: Chesapecten jeffersonius. Grayson was asked what other fossils were in contention. "He said, 'Two delegates and a senator,'" Stosch said. Virginia already has 16 "official" emblems, including the state fish, brook trout; the state beverage, milk; and the state bird, cardinal. The dogwood is both the state tree and the state flower. The list has not been expanded since 1993, when the fish and fossil were added. "Carry Me Back to Old Virginia" was essentially retired as the state song in 1997 when it was designated "state song emeritus." Not all bills creating new state emblems have encountered as little resistance as Stump's. In recent years, the Legislature has rejected bills to name the eastern box turtle the state reptile and Pamunkey soil the official state soil. If Stump's bill makes it through the Senate, it must be signed by Gov. Mark R. Warner to become law. Asked the governor's position, Warner spokeswoman Ellen Qualls said he "probably will go to bat for the bat." __ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead.

steve1 5 #17 February 11, 2005 Good point Dave. Some legislators don't have much of anything better to do than pass new legislation and practice their public speaking. I wish some of them would put a sock in it. I talked to some cops lately who really like it when fellons wear the baggy low rider jeans. They are much easier to chase down and cuff that way. But getting back to the original post....so what if someone dresses different. It should be their right. If I had to dress up in a suit every day and look like a politician, I think I'd rebell. If someone comes for my rodeo buckle they're going to have to pry it out of my cold dead hands. I've only won one of them, and I don't plan on parting with it!....Steve1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
