Yessssss.... <BR/><BR/>[I kind of figured he would, since it was the whole school buses stopping at railroads thing and they totally do that (which actually is pretty annoying, but that's beside the point). And, I was imagining fourth graders across the country pulling for this sad, little guy. Schoolhouse Rock wouldn't have wanted to let the kids down. Therefore, I concluded that he would become a law. But, I was still a little worried that I would be wrong. I didn't want him to die.

Once it is announced, they will be scrambling to pay their back taxes before they have to worry about being vetted, and then we could use that money that never otherwise would have gotten paid for a stimulus package.<BR/>And that was the best idea for a stimulus package I read.
