CORRUGATED TIMES-DISPATCH
WALLA WALLA, WA -- Noting the recent accomplishments of Washington's Click it or Ticket and Drive Hammered, Get Nailed campaigns, recently-confirmed Governor Christine Gregoire announced five new cleverly-named programs Tuesday.
Standing in front of five gigantic posters, Gregoire introduced Floss 'Em or Toss 'Em, a dental hygiene initiative; Like a Virgin, a series of pamphlets promoting chaste teenage friendships; Drag and Drop, aimed at reducing smoking among I.T. staff; Slow Your Ass Down, intended to curb road rage; and Vote Naked!, an absentee ballot program.
"Market research must drive public policy," Gregoire said, lecturing a small gathering of onlookers, passers-by, and other interested folk. "The public responds well to snappy brow-beatings."
Gregoire chose Walla Walla as a launch site because of its motto. Walla Walla is known as "The City That Was So Nice They Named It Twice."
