After Solana Beach became the first city in the county to ban single-use plastic grocery bags at retail outlets, Councilman Mike Nichols said: “I’m proud … that we’re doing this. I hope that we’re not the last.” In Lemon Grove, Patch columnist Corky Lang recently wrote: “I have to draw a line in the sand. This wasteful practice is killing our environment, and quite simply has to stop.” Will Solana Beach’s action lead to a ban-the-bags movement here or end up in the trash bin of local history?

Of course women don't have the same standing as men, they don't have the same hardware either. But…Read More they do have considerably more responsibility in our society. They are the ones who have the responsibilty and the honor of bringing new life into the world. And caring for and nurturing the babies and small children. Men can't do this, no matter how hard they try to act like women. Can you imagine a fella giving birth? Believe me, a fella couldn't take it. Can you imagine a fella breast feeding a baby? You have got to be kidding! Can you just imagine the jacked-up mess we'd be in if men had to do all this by themselves? We'd be extinct by now that's for sure!
