Texas Gov. Rick Perry aired a radio ad in California trying to lure California businesses to Texas. California Gov. Jerry Brown dismissed Perry's radio appeal as "barely a brain fart."
Coincidentally, Texas state Representative Stefani Carter filed a bill in the Texas legislature to make Texas a little more like, you guessed it, California.
After the jump, Carter's own brain fart.

Charter Amendment Upheld By Court
Whoa... "Mayor" Steve Mitchell? Isn't the current mayor Bob Townsend? Isn't the new mayor going to be Amir Omar or Laura Maczka? Wasn't the former mayor Gary Slagel? It turns out that "Mayor" Steve Mitchell is not a typo here. Steve Mitchell was mayor of Richardson from 2007-2009. A little bit of history that has been bouncing around our legal system for what seems like forever needs to be disposed of before we can devote all of our attention to the upcoming council election.ORDERED, ADJUDGED and DECREED that judgment be rendered in favor of the Contestee, Mayor Steve Mitchell. ... This is a final, appealable Judgment disposing of all claims against parties.

S2L77: Kathmandu Durbar Square
From 1977 02 21 Nepal |
Durbar Square is a generic name for a plaza outside an old royal palace in Nepal. There are three in Kathmandu. These photos are of Kathmandu Durbar Square. Palaces, temples, courtyards, all with elaborately carved and decorated architecture make up this UNESCO World Heritage site. Because much of the architecture is wood, few buildings or carvings more than a few centuries old have survived, but the site has been in continuous use since at least the third century.
