The Bridge, the Mine, the Monster Truck

We do not need more money for roads in Minnesota. As it is now, in summer you can hardly travel at all due to road construction. We do not have a failing infrastructure issue here, but maybe a misappropriation issue. I heard yesterday that the latest transportation bill (spending federal gas tax money) had earmarks (pork) for Northern Minnesota (James Oberstars District) for over $90 million in projects with most not related to roads at all. $90 million would have been enough to repair and strengthen many bridges...

Coal mining is inherently dangerous, and the miners know the risks.

When attending any motor sports event there is a small chance you will get hit with a flying vehicle.

I really hate the media in the US, and the accompanying crisis response unit in Washington. "Little Girl falls in well." is quickly followed up by "New Legislation banning wells introduced"....
