Sometimes, it pays to leave the Interstate for the Road Not Taken. Pennsylvania’s Lancaster County is well worth a visit. Life does not have to move at 100Mbps… Satellite view.

One of World’s Most Prolific Spammers Arrested
A Minnesota man considered one of the world’s most prolific e-mail spammers was indicted on more than a dozen federal charges related to the operation of his business, Xpress Pharmacy Direct.
The indictment against Christopher William Smith, 25, was unsealed Wednesday after he was arrested at his home in Prior Lake. Dr. Philip Mach, 47, of Franklin Park, N.J., and Bruce Jordan Lieberman, 45, from Farmingdale, N.Y., were also charged in the indictment, federal prosecutors said.

Senator Herb Kohl’s Re-Election Website Debut
We can hope for competition in the 2006 Senate race. Kohl has cast a number of anti-Wisconsin votes recently. Ideally, his opponent(s) will ask some questions. The usually reliable (for Herb Kohl) Capital Times recently criticized his support of the latest energy bill disaster. Joel McNally earlier asked why the Wisconsin Press gives Kohl a pass?
My own view is that after three terms, it is time for the good Senator to move on. He’s clearly become part of the club, with all of the trappings and required votes.
My favorite Kohl vote? “Present” on a large corporation tax giveaway. Why can’t the rest of us have a 5% tax rate?
