My Final Roller Coaster Ride in the Legislature (Tuesday, August 08, 2006)
It will be my last roller coaster ride in the Legislature, since term limits says it is time for me to go. I can only recommend that you hold on. As for me, I’m going to sit in the front car, and put my hands in the air. It's going to be a wild ride. (Added by Ray Haynes)
