Time Is Slipping Away

As usual this dumb cowboy is missing something again. Going in to this Legislative session here in Montana the big issue was going to be devising a new school funding formula to satistfy the court. Only 22 days left in the session, they still haven't figured it out and they are all ready <a href="http://www.billingsgazette.com//index.php?id=1&display=rednews/2005/04/01/build/state/88-special-session.inc" target="_new">talking about calling a Special Session</a> to deal with it. <br />n<br />nMaybe they should have spent a little more time on this major issue during the session instead of thinking a Special Session, with all the extras costs associated with it, would solve the issue. It's not like this issue jumped up and bit them all of a sudden like the <a href="http://www.firstamendmentcenter.org/news.aspx?id=15061" target="_new">ruling saying the way initiatives are qualified for the ballot is unconstitutional</a>. They will need to scramble a little on that issue but the school funding issue has been before them the whole session.<br />n<br />nThere is this little thing called time managment that maybe they need to look into there in Helena. It might help them, if they have time to study the issue <img src="http://www.sarpysam.com/templates/default/img/emoticons/smile.png" alt=":-)" class="emoticon" />.<br />n<br />n<b>If you delay till to-morrow what ought to be done to-day, you overcharge the morrow with a burden which belongs not to it. You load the wheels of time, and prevent it from carrying you along smoothly. He who every morning plans the transactions of the day, and follows out the plan, carries on a thread which will guide him through the labyrinth of the most busy life. The orderly arrangement of his time is like a ray of light which darts itself through all his affairs. But where no plan is laid, where the disposal of time is surrendered merely to the chance of incidents, all things lie huddled together in one chaos, which admits neither of distribution nor review.
