$174,000 a year for sitting around doing nothing? Don't tempt me.

What does State Assembly pay? I think I could be happy with State Assembly...

I have to deal with the State Assembly more and more often, you don't want that job...

$95,291

This is an awesome story - Homecoming Princess turns tables on bullies. It's the "rival" high school in our area. Maddie told me about this a few weeks ago.

Didn't read the article but is this the one where she burns down the town telepathically?

Yes that's the one.

No really apparently a group of kids got together and nominated an autistic girl for Homecoming Princess. As a prank. Another Mom heard about it and put the word out on facebook and she won in a landslide.

That's a great story, and in my own town, no less. Thanks for sharing!

What I've learned from driving around Maine for the last 5 days.

1) The locals apparently subsist on lobster and Dunkin' Donuts.
2) Sadly, the Maine accent is not so prevalent as would be hoped.

Oh, and you can't drive 60 feet without passing another collection of dead people. Maine is very proud of its dead people.
