Wedge it between some bingo amendments

The U.S. Constitution, which has only 27 amendments, bars any congressional pay raise from taking effect until after the next election cycle. The Alabama Constitution, which has almost 800 amendments, doesn't. Perhaps one of the lawmakers not on this list could lead the charge to change that situation before the public's anger over legislators' 62 percent pay raise subsides.

But only after we ban gay marriage yet again. It's been almost a year since the last vote on it, and people may forget it's illegal.
