Buckle this....

Coming at us again from the "Good Idea, Bad Law" department, is the Indiana House of Representatives latest attempt to over regulate our lives. Their latest offering, House Bill 1237, threatens to remove yet another of our few remaining freedoms, that of choosing, as an adult, whether or not to wear a seatbelt in a truck.

While the proposed law doesn't allow exceptions based on personal preference, it does allow exceptions for certain occupations. One of those is farming. Another is newspaper delivery.

Now, I'm not in the market for a farm, but if this law is enacted, I expect to be the delivery boy for "The Bell Gazette", which will be published ocassionally and delivered sporadically.

Franchises may be available.
