IT'S GO-GO TIME

Sen. Ken Kester, R-Las Animas, has been appointed to the board of the Greater Outdoors Colorado Trust Fund, known as GOCO.

"He thought it was the 'Go-Go' board," joked Sen. Steve Johnson, R-Fort Collins.

Responded Kester: "We are going to change the board. It's going to be a lot more fun."

QUIT WHINING AND PUT ON YOUR DIAPERS

The Bathroom War continued Thursday at the Capitol. It started this week when, at the request of Sen. Bob Hagedorn, D-Aurora, lobbyists were banned from using the bathroom near the second-floor Senate chambers. He complained about being lobbied in the can.

Lobbyists aren't too happy .

"I'm going to run a resolution to ask Senate members to donate a buck or two to buy a couple of boxes of Depends . . . for some of these whining lobbyists," Hagedorn joked.

Thursday morning, a sign reading "No senators allowed" was briefly posted on a men's bathroom in the Capitol basement.
