Whereas this is flippin' sweet



I have recently embraced the fact that I share a likeness to Napoleon Dynamite... an ill-fated, but optimistic character from the movie bearing his name.

Dee recently made me aware of the fact that there had been an actual bit of legislation in the state of Idaho, supporting the movie. I was extremely excited to read one of the funniest pieces of government writing ever. My favorite part is in Section 2, Line 2:

::

WHEREAS, any members of the House of Representatives or the Senate of the Legislature of the State of Idaho who choose to vote "Nay" on this concurrent resolution are "FREAKIN' IDIOTS!" and run the risk of having the "Worst Day of Their Lives!"

::

If you are a fan of the movie you have to read the bill. The funny thing is that the bill's existence proves that there really isn't anything to do in Idaho. When I think of how this bill came about, I imagine a group of state senators getting drunk one night over poker, quoting from the movie. Whatever intern had got the job of writing the bill down is freakin' lucky, 'cause it is flippin' sweet!
