I remember when I lived in California, that the legislature spent some time deciding on the official state fossil! Seriously, most of the time the legislature is in session, most members aren’t even there! All the real power is held by the speakers, whips, and committee chairmen-democracy…give me a break!!
“I remember when I lived in California, that the legislature spent some time deciding on the official state fossil!”
—That would have been Zsa Zsa Gabor, wouldn’t it?
Ugh! The only Jell-o I can eat is the cook and serve chocolate pudding. I only get the gall to make it once or twice a year. And tapioca is little fish eyeballs!
Zsa Zsa has a wooden tit? Kinda makes sense, though. She would have gotten her implants about the same time George Washington got his false teeth.
And besides, as all true sons and daughters of the Empire State know, Jell-O was invented here in New York (in the nearby village of Leroy to be precise). Which means those damn Yoots are trying to steal our snack.
Author, author… Ike! As Red Green says:
“For men there are two food groups; meat and salt.”
Good gravy, Ike! If you aren’t lactose intolerant or on a strict diet, you’ve just abdicated your standing as one of my most very favorite food posters. My mind boggles at the thought of Cool Whip™ on Jell-O™!?!
On the other hand, a recent thread on gelatin desserts made me reminisce about my mother’s lime Jell-O™ “ambrosia”. Anyone got a cite for this recipe? Lime Jell-O™, with tiny nuggets of cream cheese and Marischino cherries.
Doctor Jackson, save for the regurgitating sounds, your Spam™ Cupcakes left me speechless. (And that ain’t often!)
Oh, c’mon. It’s not like Jesse’s not trying, or anything.
Oh, wait.
He’s working for the XFL during the legislative session during a budget year.
Never mind.

Pineapple, except cooked. Frozen and fresh both contain an acid (I think) that prevents jello from congealing.
You want to talk about a state being a laughing stock? Try being from Florida. Every night on national news…
Hey, I voted right.
You just described Marie Osmond’s bosoms. :o 
I live in Miami-Dade, and as this is the most corrupt goverment south of, say Broward County, I voted seventeen times. I tried to vote eighteen times, but when I went to the polling station in the graveyard, and they wouldn’t let me vote without a death certificate.
So, Utah, Massachussetts, and Minnesota, the line forms behind us.
Uncle Bill, I think this article from the Onion (which was
actually appeared in April of 1999) makes the US the laughing stock of the world http://www.theonion.com/onion3514/unfit_to_govern.html
I just saw something else stupid about you Utes (Utahers/Utans/Yoo’uns) on CNN.
There’s a bill before your house to allow teenaged prisoners the right to go fishing… as long as they’re guarded.
This is so wrong, and funny, on so many levels!
This is one of the funniest lines I’ve ever read. Can I sig it, please?
Same with kiwi.
Okay, you can’t drink alcohol, coffee or tea, but “food stuffs” made from dead animal are okay? Doesn’t Utah have any vegetarians?
Well, at least you Utahites didn’t make Hillary Clinton your friggin senator
In Missouri, they’re pressing legislature making it legal for citizens to use force to prevent the desecration of the American flag.
Some people just haven’t lost the urge to kick the shit out of anybody who disagrees with them.
Damn, galen, you beat me to it. 
You want to live in a state that’s a laughing stock? Try Vermont. Everyone I meet seems to think that I must live on, or at the very least near, a farm. They don’t think I have neighbors (I do, many.)
Not to mention the many gags on Fred Tuttle (they just don’t understand he wasn’t really trying to be a senator.)
Aargh.
