I always wondered which Members of Congress have the rigorous assignments to come up with special days, weeks, months. Among my personal favorites are National Kazoo Day, and National Pickle Week. Both, of course, are funny because they contain the "k" sound. (See
The Sunshine Boys.)
Now we know. John Kerry has been paid an average of $140,000 for twenty years to do this heavy lifting. That is roughly $2,800,000, or $255,556 per bill or resolution authored and actually passed into law or effect. Wow. I'm impressed. (NOT.)
