When were you a law making body? and for whom?

It was probably in his fraternity.

Hmm, in those circles, isn't it known as a sorority?

I can't really imagine me pledging a fraternity.

It was at Boy's State Washington (1991). We also passed a law demanding that China deliver all pandas to the Port of Tacoma so that we could summarily execute them in front of an assembly of western Washington second grade classes.

Needless to say we weren't taking our mock government very seriously. We had more important stuff to do like gamble all night and watch porn rented by our chaperones (first, last, and only time I've watched porn in the company of other males).

Our American Legion taskmasters weren't too pleased with us.

I guess that answers the circle-jerk thing,

(I knew you weren't a frat boy, Alex- I was just calling you out!)

As I recall, one of the fews boys present who was taking it all seriously was the one who got himself elected governor. One of the tasks of this role (why, I don't know since it has no equivelant in actual government) was to read each bill passed aloud prior to signing or vetoing it. Pretty much all week we were trying to pass laws that he would find embarrassing to read out loud. Because of course we had to humiliate the guy who was actually taking seriously what our sponsors back home spent thousands of dollars shipping us to Ellensburg (oh god, what punishment) to do.
