Above: “Rep. Barbara Lambert is playing spider solitaire in the photo, while Rep. Jack F. Hennessy…is playing regular solitaire.”

As a Spider Solitaire and Freecell kind of girl, I understand the need to be playing at all times. But whoever is on ESPN in the lower right hand corner needs to minimize that window and do some legislating…gosh.

But really: I’m not sure whether to find this amusing, scary or frustrating. I expect kids at summer jobs to be Facebooking during work hours, but don’t our Congresspeople have bigger fish to fry than sorting out spades and clubs?

Can’t we get the Patiot Act to block this sort of stuff inside the state Capitols? And AOL Online has those great parental controls!
