The next time the NY State Legislature takes forever to do something (which will be next time), consider this: The Idaho Legislature has passed a resolution commending the vision of indie sleeper film Napoleon Dynamite and what it stands for. Seriously. See the resolution here, but here are some highlights of the reasons:
- WHEREAS, the friendship between Napoleon and Pedro has furthered multiethnic relationships
- WHEREAS, Rico and Kip's Tupperware sales and Deb's keychains and glamour shots promote entrepreneurism and self-sufficiency in Idaho's small towns
- WHEREAS, Kip's relationship with LaFawnduh is a tribute to e-commerce and Idaho's technology-driven industry
- WHEREAS, Napoleon's tetherball dexterity emphasizes the importance of physical education in Idaho public schools
- 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!"

Love that movie! We've watched it three times in the last month or so. We ended up buying it.
ReplyDeleteVote for Pedro.
Interestingly enough, the current U of S student president wore a "Vote for Pedro" shirt in his campaign posters. He won re-election.
