Oh, my. Can anyone — ANYONE — tell me why the California State Senate has refused to let voters decide whether to keep going on, and off, Daylight Saving Time? The Senate’s vote this week nixed a bill that would have placed a measure on the ballot, asking us to decide whether to dump our…

Okay, this is the first, and I hope only, comment I’m going to make about that mess of an American athlete, Ryan Lochte.
