A new study says spanking is bad for kids, however, experts are a bit 
suspicious of the findings - the study was written in crayon.

This is an honest-to-God, true story. About 20 years ago, when 
I was a young girl, and prettier than now, I got all dolled-up for 
New Year's Eve, with a long floor length  gown, as was the 
custom, then. I was especially dressed up, because, as I said, 
it was New Year's Eve. My husband took me to the Casinos in 
Atlantic City, and we were seated at a table, playing Blackjack, 
for about a half hour, and the other players and dealer were 
staring and staring at me, something fierce !!. I thought to 
myself, WOW, I must look BEAUTIFUL, tonight ! (You know how 
we all feel, when we are dressed to the hilt, and have new duds 
on. Ha. Ha. )  SO, I thought, this was the case, and was feeling 
SO GOOD! All of a sudden, I lost a hand, where I had foolishly 
placed a $25.00 bet (Don't forget, that cheap me, had been 
playing only $2.00, a hand, prior to this). I said to myself: "OH 
SHIT, I LOST!!!!!!!", and placed my left hand on my head. 
HOLY COW !! At that very moment, I touched Hair Rollers, on 
my head. I whispered to my husband, "Take my money, and 
meet me at the Ladie's Room, I'm not coming back". I was so 
humiliated, I wanted to die. When I reached the Mirror in the 
bathroom, and looked, I had three pink rollers on the right side 
of my head, and 3 green rollers on the left side of my head. Can 
you believe this person, I'm married to? Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha. I can 
laugh now, but it was VERY Embarrasing ! When he met me at 
the Bathroom, and I started to fight, he calmly told me "Well, I 
DIDN'T KNOW !  I  thought, this was a new fashion, so I didn't 
say anything!

Representative Tim Moore sponsored a resolution in the Texas House of Representatives in 
Austin, Texas calling on the House to commend Albert de Salvo for his unselfish service to 
"his country, his state and his community." 

The resolution stated that "this compassionate gentleman's dedication and devotion to his work 
has enabled the weak and the lonely throughout the nation to achieve and maintain a new degree 
of concern for their future. He has been officially recognized by the state of Massachusetts 
for his noted activities and unconventional techniques involving population control and applied
psychology." 

The resolution was passed unanimously. 

Representative Moore then revealed that he had only tabled the motion to show how the 
legislature passes bills and resolutions often without reading them or understanding what 
they say. Albert de Salvo was the Boston Strangler.
