H.R. No. 2733
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The Texas House of Representatives is pleased to
honor Rianna Richardson for her outstanding work as an intern in the
office of State Representative Debbie Riddle; and
WHEREAS, Known as "The Tall One" to those who are unable to
read her nameplate, she was the rock on which the office founded its
intern empire; possibly even more opinionated than she is tall, she
made clear her opinion on the issue of state-contracted inmate
labor less than a week into her employment, perhaps having misheard
it as "state-contracted intern labor"; the office's resident
conspiracy theorist, she also dug her young and malleable brain
into such topics as American Colonialism, enhanced driver's
licenses, and the percentage of students on campus who receive
artificial tans and the potential cross-section of students who are
members of Greek fraternal organizations; and
WHEREAS, Famously dependent on coffee, Ms. Richardson was
perhaps driven by an excess of caffeine to leave sarcastic notes and
dirty cups as an expression of her pure disdain for her
arch-nemesis, the afternoon intern, Adam, who, to be honest, had it
coming; on the other hand, she has developed a genuine friendship
with her shift-partner, Natalie, and she is completely devoted to
her dog, Gandalf, even though (his name notwithstanding) he doesn't
appear to be able to battle Balrogs, cast spells, or blow smoke
rings; and
WHEREAS, Since joining the staff, Rianna Richardson has
proven to be an indispensible member of the staff and a pure delight
to work with, and it is most fitting to recognize her for a job well
done; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 81st Texas
Legislature hereby commend Rianna Richardson for her service as an
intern in the office of State Representative Debbie Riddle and
extend to her sincere best wishes for the future; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for Ms. Richardson as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
Riddle
