POLITICIANS AT LOGGERHEADS OVER OFFICIAL STATE BISCUIT
(Pennsylvania, Ananova) - Pennsylvania's two legislative chambers are at loggerheads over the identity of the official state biscuit. The state Senate favors the chocolate chip cookie, but the House of Representatives wants the Nazareth sugar cookie. Both chambers have introduced their own bills in attempts to have their own choice of official state biscuit recognized, according to the Beaver County Times and Allegheny Times. The bills were first introduced in 2001, but were abandoned after September 11. Now both chambers have introduced new bills. The people of Nazareth, Pennsylvania, are hoping their cookie wins the day. The recipe was perfected by settlers from Germany during the mid-1700s. But the Senate's bill argues the chocolate chip cookie is the country's most popular, and that Pennsylvania leads the nation in chocolate production. State Senator, Gerald LaValle, said, "To be honest, I'd be much more concerned with passing a state budget than a state cookie."”

“SUGAR COOKIES ARE FOR WIMPS!!”

“some people like cupcakes better...”

“Noone in Pennsylvania calls a cookie a biscuit! This reporter must be British! I vote for Girl Scout Thin Mints!”

“Fig Newtons or I leave the state!!!!”

“I could go Fig Newtons too...”

“Fudge Stripes or death!”

“It’s not a cookie. It’s a Newton.”

“I though Chocolate Chip were cookies and biscuits were those other things.... oh you people confuse me!”

“Biscuits are people down south put gravy on and have for breakfast.”

“biscuits are the cookies you eat with tea! man, i love those things...”

“My guess is that the poor backward hillfolk of Pennsylvania are trying to sound cultured by naming a state ‘biscuit’.”

“How about Milk Bone?”

“You flat landers are just jealous.”

“But what of that Prince of Foods... The Muffin?”

“Pittsburgh to the West, Philadelphia to the East,
Arkansas in between !!!”

“I, for one, care less for them...”

“God is going to get you for that one, Treebeard!”

“i thought he was a man








But he was a muffin...”

“lucky Arkansas ...





yeah i know very old joke”

“Ah... Nazareth, Pennsylvania: the home of Martin Guitars and Zippo lighters, <G>”

“Don't forget that Nazareth is also the home of Mario Andretti, and that godawful speedway that makes traffic a mess on race days.”

“Just wonderin'... is there really a Ballpoint, Penn.?”

“Maybe they should put the two together with a cream filling. That way both Houses could get their way.”

“This thread just proves how difficult it is for the Pennsylvania General Assembly to pass meaningful legislation to satisfy the common men and women of this great Commonwealth. I think we need to go with focus groups.”

“only in PA can you find the worlds largest Roach-Clip (and they call it art)”

“That's a clothes pin. Only Narcs and Maple would confuse a clothes pin with a roach clip!”

“LOLOLOL”

“It's quite clearly a clothespin. It even says clothespin. You can hang out there all day and it will be nothing but a clothespin.”

“Smoke three or four Philly Blunts. It may start to look like a roach clip then...”

“So that's why Maple's calling it a roach clip!”

“you have mail”

“You have a reply.”

“nice to be needed isn't it.”

“Maple always needs me. I swear, I don't think treebeard takes very good care of her.”
