Kentucky introduced a new "Kentucky Reads" licence plate to support public libraries in the state. The campaign celebrates the continued usage of public libraries in Kentucky. To get a hold of the plate, all you have to do is move to Kentucky and pay $25.
What to do with this story? As a Mississippian, a state known for our illiteracy rates as much as our writing, I can not go for the obvious reading joke. Horse and bourbon jokes also seem uncouth, because, well... those things are awesome. Part of me just wants to find a picture of Mr. Ed with a book, but I am lazy and writing this from a tablet and that would be a pain in the ass. Ooo!
I hope this does not encourage reading while riding on your drunken horse.
Aaaand, Thank you.
