An old joke Oklahoma teachers tell is that whenever surveys or rankings come out about per-student spending or test scores or some other field in which you would want your state to do well, they would look at the list and then offer thanks for the existence of Mississippi.
From now on, every time a story or opinion piece or blog post comes out that highlights something dumb either of my state's two senators might say (and it's not hard to do), I will be offering thanks for the voters of Nevada.
