Don't Forget The AK!



Sen. Al Franken's has a secret talent: the ability to perfectly draw all 48 contiguous states. Pretty cool, huh?

Not if you're the new Senator from Alaska, Mark Begich. Upon hearing about the party trick, Sen. Begich sent Sen. Franken a note asking, "I formally request Alaska and Hawaii be included in your rendering of the United States." Sen. Begich helpfully provided a connect-the-dots rendering of Alaska for practice.

Sen. Franken explained he learned his neat trick as a kid...before Alaska was actually a state. In the spirit of Senate Friendship, however, he complied with the above sketch. [Politico]
