Official State Amphibian

The official state amphibian of Ohio is the BULLFROG. The measure designating the noisy critter, hundreds of which reside in my friend DT's pond, was passed the other day.

Now why in the hell are we paying our state legislators to waste their time and our tax dollars on such a stupid endeavor. I'm wondering how long and hard the Bullfrog Lobby campaigned for passage of the bill.

I'm writing the governor. We now need a state reptile.

I think we have a state reptile. I remember something about that. I know Georgia has one. They spend time on things like this because they can avoid pissing people off by making difficult, potentially unpopular decisions.
