In July 2011, an Austrian atheist won the legal right to be shown in his driving license photo wearing a pasta strainer on his head, after three years and an examination certifying that he was psychologically fit to drive. He got the idea after reading that Austrian regulations allow headgear in official photos only when it is worn for religious reasons.

Youtube video on an atheist couple that reports prejudice. Not particularly interesting or compelling, it just brought me back to what it was like to live in other states. There is a lot of tolerance for difference in california.

You can put up with practically anything when you're chock full o' drugs. Hence the tolerance.

Hitler (Austrian-born) started the Nazi Party with two pairs of chopsticks and a rice steamer.

Lenin, a Bolshevik Russian, spent the three years in exile by the river Lena concocting edible treebark. He also experimented with compressing air until it had some nutritional value.

Che ge Vara, a South American Rebel Without a Cause, trained with the FBI as a commando cook.

And Mahatma Ghandi collected empty popsicle sticks in his latter years.

Another victory for the Flying Spaghetti Monster! Yay, Pastafarianism! May our colanders decorate the heads of all our leaders, in state sponsored photos and otherwise!
