I hope it passes. Al, Hanover MD -I'm so glad our elected officials are spending our tax dollars on such important issues as this. Let sprawl destroy our rural landscapes, let pollution and overfishing kill the Chesapeake, let our children grow up obese and uneducated as long as we get those ornaments off the road...for surely nothing will ruin their psyche for life more than seeing a little tasteless humor! Might actually do girls some good to know what testicles look like, since this country has just about banned any kind of sex ed in schools!! Whitney, Arlington VA -Really? There's nothing more pressing to pass legislation on? To be vulgar, wouldn't a truck need to actually have testicles? Most cars don't have "bras"... some do. Are the ones that don't going to be pulled over for indecent exposure? The "Truck nuts" could be (aren't but could be) a place for storing 2 different sized hitch balls.... Jason, Minneapolis MN -This is totally ridiculous.

Do your homework and see if they would put the federal government back into its constitutional box. George Phillies, Wayne Allyn Root, and Steve Kubby are presidential candidates advocating a federal government much smaller and less taxing on the American people than it is now. .
Trembley Enjoys Driver's Seat
Long before he settled into his office at Fort Lauderdale Stadium, Dave Trembley received a distinct reminder that this spring will be unlike any other. "I went to the airport yesterday to pick up my rental," he said Wednesday. "I'm used to getting a little matchbox car." He drove away in a huge Cadillac, one of the many fringe benefits of being manager of the Baltimore Orioles. After spending 20 years as a minor league manager, Trembley finally made it to the big leagues last spring as Baltimore's bullpen coach. Then, on June 18, he became interim manager after the Orioles fired Sam Perlozzo. Trembley had the interim tag removed in August and will begin his first spring training camp as a big league manager Thursday. He spent much of the offseason preparing for the assignment, and already has Day 1 mapped out to the minute.

A contest the falls cannot lose; Time to choose world's 7 new natural ...
April will mark 18 years since I moved to Niagara Falls, and while we haven't always seen eye to eye I've never loved the actual falls more. I'm convinced everyone who moves here has a relationship with our namesake in three stages. First is infatuation: You can't believe you can see the falls whenever you want. Your parents had to drive hundreds of kilometres to bring you here as a kid, now it's practically in your backyard! Like newlyweds, you can't get enough of each other. Then comes resentment: You start hating tourist season. You can't get any 'alone' time with your waterfalls any more. You avoid the whole tacky, tawdry scene. You even gripe about turning your wipers on while driving through the mist. The thrill is gone, baby. Then comes acceptance: You look past the casinos, museums and attractions and come to appreciate the falls for what they are - one of the most beautiful things nature ever produced.
