WEED out Obsolete Laws: Sex between MARRIED couples illegal?

    It is still illegal on the books of Virginia statutes for MARRIED couples to engage in oral sex  under  Va. Code § 18.2-361 (A).    If married husband and wife play around they are guilty of a Class 6 felony !!!!  Part of that statute deals with some outrageous perversions, but it also makes it a CRIME to simply engage in oral sex or anal sex between   ANY  male or female person -- even if they are married to each other!!!! So it is too broad.

Holiday Time Off

Christmas and New Year's Day are both on Thursday this year.  Those 2 days should be the only paid time off for the state's employees.  Do not give the 2 Fridays as paid time off.  If an employee wants to take Friday off, then they can use vacation time.

This is a fiscally responsible approach to use my tax dollars.

Keep large items OUT of landfills -- make artificial reefs instead.

 

One must be careful to ensure that no engines or transmissions that still contain oil are put in the ocean.  However, many large items that take up space in landfills should instead be carefully planned out and placed in the Atlantic to create artificial reefs, which will eventually become overgrown with coral, and help promote marine life.  Things like car frames, truck frames, etc.

Change Light Switches to MOTION SENSITIVE light switches

This can save MORE than the dangerous mercury light bulbs.  These days, any Lowes or Home Depot can sell you a motion-sensing light switch which will turn the lights OFF after there has been no motion for a period of time.  NOTE that you can ADJUST the period of time.  (Anyone can do it.  You just lift up the cover and swivel a screw with a screwdriver.)  So there is NO reason for anyone to resist this.  The lights then come on again automatically when motion is detected (assuming the light is otherwise switched on).   All you have to do is turn off t

Kill Mosquitos in Va. Parks, Rest Stops, to avoid disease with SKEETERVAC

West Nile Virus and other diseases can be spread by mosquitos.  We bought a SKEETERVAC from Blue Nile.  This is the only thing that really works.  You can pull out the trap drawer and  SEE the hundreds of dead mosquitos in the unit.  Nothing else works like that.
