Californians in the news

The California legislature recently introduced a Pluto resolution:

WHEREAS, Downgrading Pluto's status will cause psychological harm to some Californians who question their place in the universe and worry about the instability of universal constants. . .

Resolved by the Assembly of the State of California, That the Assembly hereby condemns the International Astronomical Union’s decision to strip Pluto of its planetary status for its tremendous impact on the people of California and the state’s long term fiscal health.

Californians, are you suffering psychological harm? Are you hurting from the impact to your fiscal health? Because everyone in Indiana seems to be doing just fine.

neal says it's good to know that life is SO perfect in California that they have nothing better to do than make "joke" resolutions.

Democrats. What can you do.

Brent said...

Both Dems and Republicans are listed as co-authors.

I read the entire resolution; it's pretty hilarious. Good to know someone still has a sense of the inane in California.
