What did you think the politicians were doing during all those long speeches..?


Photo from here, reportedly taken in the Connecticut state government chambers during budget discussions. My count: two playing solitaire, one watching baseball online (or maybe just reading articles about it). Well, at least they're not getting lost in the mountains and rescued by TV helicopters and top-secret police spy planes...

Oh, and: kiwifruit rock. That is all.

  1. NYC Mayor Bloomberg fires people on the spot for playing solitaire. It's nice to imagine that people can fire these people although the reality is that most are in safe districts and will be reelected. On the other hand, I've sat through a legislative day and I was playing solitaire too on my PDA. BUT, I'm not in the pit voting.
