Kentucky needs submarines
A RESOLUTION encouraging the purchase and vigorous use of the USS Louisville 688 VLS Class submarine.

WHEREAS, in the past few years the scourge of the casino riverboat has been an increasingly significant presence on the Ohio River; and

WHEREAS, the Ohio River borders the Commonwealth of Kentucky; and

WHEREAS, the siren song of payola issuing from the discordant calliopes of these gambling vessels has led thousands of Kentucky citizens to vast disappointment and woe; and

WHEREAS, no good can come to the citizens of Kentucky hypnotized from the siren song issuing from these casino riverboats, the engines of which are fired by the hard-earned dollars lost from Kentucky citizens...


My only hope is that Representative Thomas Burch (D), the author of HR 256, is just one of those funny, good 'ol boys who likes to see what prankery he can get away with before the Sheriff and his dawg can shoo him from the parchment and legal pen. The alternative is too depressing to devote any time to consider.

By the way, this should NOT be confused with HB 256 from Representative Brent Yonts (D) and Representative Sheldon Baugh (R):

AN ACT designating Muhlenberg County as the birthplace of thumb picking as a style of guitar playing.

Designate Muhlenberg County as the birthplace of thumb picking guitar playing.


Wouldn't want anyone to get confused. Terribly important things happening in Kentucky these days.

Via Catallarchy.
