Sorry- just on a sorta post-session high. Did you guys know about the ‘Sacred Cod‘ that hangs in the Massachusetts House of Reps chamber?
- In 1933, the Cod was stolen by members of the Harvard Lampoon magazine as a practical joke. It was soon returned following outrage from the Massachusetts General Court and Bostonians.
- There is a persistent, and untrue, rumor that the words “In Cod We Trust” are carved onto, or hung nearby, the Sacred Cod.
