Celebration!

Okay, so you probably heard that on Tuesday night the South Carolina Gamecocks won their second College World Series in two years. My FSU degree makes me generally sympathetic to the ACC, but I'll happily celebrate a Palmetto State victory. 'Course, around La Maison Jaune, there's an even bigger victory: The General Assembly overrode veto number 13, which would have eliminated funding for S.C. Area Health Education Centers. SC AHEC helps to bring young folks into health care careers, recruits health care providers into rural and underserved areas (such as Colleton County), and provides continuing education for medical professionals. AHEC employs many fine citizens, including, most notably in these parts, Lady Di. We're grateful to the General Assembly for helping to foster a better environment for medical providers (and for saving the jobs of quite a few deserving taxpayers!).
