Gas Prices

What I find the most annoying at the pump is fluctuations from day to day. This morning one station was $0.20 higher across the street from another on my way to work. What I think we need is a statewide gas price to reduce the volatility at the pumps. It is ridiculous to have the prices go up or down $0.20 in one day or if you drive 5 miles down the road.

Olympics

Every major sporting event like the Olympics is full of scandal around participants' performance-enhancing drug usage. We should stop this paranoia surrounding using these drugs and rather embrace it. There should be a second version of the Olympics that allows performance-enhancing drugs, body augmentation, cybernetic implants, et c.

Olympic athletes have made many sacrifices to participate, why not allow the ones that want to risk a bit more to use a technology and human invention to allow them to take that extra step.
