Downey

George Lucas' high school alma matre, the home of the Downey Ducks. He renamed Downey High School, Dewey High School in American Graffiti to avoid lawsuits.

Downey students like to think they're Downey Knights, but that just doesn't have the same ring to it as Downey Ducks, and students at all the other schools around them don't let them forget it!

legislator

One who authors and approves legislation on behalf of the populace, usually a representative such as a congressman or senator.

See conflict of interest and self-serving.

In a democracy, the authority to author and approve legislation would reside with the people. However, that would not be conducive to the job security of lawyers and politicians, so legislators make sure it isn't done that way.
