I'm waiting to see how Barbara Norton embarrasses the state this time.

**edit** wrong Norton

For political junkies, the Louisiana legislative session is gold.

Bills are easier to understand compared to congress and the characters are, well, "interesting."

Love this time of year.

You mean "who" would be embarrassed? Anyone that didn't vote for her.

EHN is from Wash, DC. Not La. I don't get the reference.

While I enjoy watching the train wreck, the parking becomes ridiculous. Legislators will have tons of parking areas blocked off for them, many of which will go unused. This morning I was greeted by a spot on the street blocked off, it was eventually taken by a food truck.

And then there's what I like to call "Old Crook's Day" where current legislators host all the former legislators by spending who knows how much on shite-tons of food and extra security. They also rope off an extra few dozen parking spots, of which about 10-20% get used.
