By Senators Shin, Chase, Hobbs, McAuliffe, Pearson, and Harper

The motion by Senator Shin carried and the resolution was adopted by voice vote.

REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT

President Owen: “Senator Schlicher just for your information, since you did ask, Rule 29 as I stated earlier does suggest, not only suggest but tells you that you will address your remarks to the President. However, I will tell the members here that the very distinguished and highly-regarded and respected Senator, Senator Bob Morton of the Seventh district, who sat where you sit would stand up and he would address the President and ask my permission or he would say, ‘Pardon me Mr. President,’ or he would say, ‘if I may.’ The President recognizes that, although I do love to listen to your big speeches and have you address me, that your remarks are better spent given to the members of the senate and so any of those approaches would be respected and honored by the President-which you didn’t do.”

PERSONAL PRIVILEGE

Senator Darneille: “Thank you. You know, this is the first floor speech of our most junior member as recognized and I have just a couple of concerns. He’s a fellow Pierce County senator and so I have to give him all due respect for joining our delegation. But I do have one complaint and it has to do, Mr. President, with the fact that I think all of us now suffer from great inferiority complexes. The good Senator is both a doctor and a lawyer and he has 2.5 children which is exactly the national average. I just can’t imagine what could be more perfect than that but I want to quickly move on so that the forty-seven other people don’t actually say that they are more perfect than that but I do have one other concern, it has to do with the name itself that we call this good senator. Schlicher, Senator Schlicher Senator Schlicher, Senator Schlichler, Senator Snickers I heard. You know when a word has the letters ‘ich’ and there pronounced ‘ick’ there’s a great deal of confusion Mr. Speaker, Mr. President. Twelve years of bad training, but I have to say that my name is Darneille and it has an ‘eille’ at the end and it is quite confusing to people how to pronounce my name. So, now I am very happy that I have the second-most difficult name to pronounce in Washington State Senate this year and I just wanted to comment that Senators Tom and Chase and Brown and Shin, they just have no idea what life is like having a very difficult to pronounce name. So, I’m sure we’re all delighted in having the good senator with us and he responds to virtually to any pronunciation to his name so I think we’re all good. I am very happy that he’s here.”

PERSONAL PRIVILEGE

Senator Becker: “Thank you. Well, senator Delly, manelli, Namelli and Senator Schlicher, it’s been quite interesting trying to say your name but I grew up with the name of Randi and you may be able to say the name but most of you may spell it wrong. So, it’s those things, when we come to names, it’s really interesting how we all think about that it may be easier, it may be hard but it’s just something that I thought I would share. It’s Randi with an ‘i.’”

PERSONAL PRIVILEGE

Senator Schlicher: “Thank you Mr. President. If I may address the august body behind me. Thank you Mr. President. Well, that was meek and tame. I expected worse from you all. Such good material. I want to distribute to you my gifts from the district and a little kind a plethora. Well done Mr. President. [Music begins] I expected that at some point. Well, to the beat of the music here you know.”

REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT

President Owen: “It’s the ‘Doogie Houser’ theme song, in case you didn’t know.”

PERSONAL PRIVILEGE

Senator Schlicher: “Thank you Mr. President. I may not be old enough to remember the show but I hear it’s got re-runs. Maybe you can tell me sometime how it was.”

REPLY BY THE PRESIDENT

President Owen: “Maybe not.”

PERSONAL PRIVILEGE

Senator Schlicher: Maybe not. Well, anyways included in your gift bag is a little tour of the Twenty-sixth district. What the cup is, is from the city of Gig Harbor, a picturesque little town on the other side of that green bridge that has a toll attached to it. So, we want to invite you to Gig Harbor to see our picturesque town that has been called one of the most livable cities and to offset your tolls and encourage you to visit one of our local proprietors is one of our gift cards to Cutters Point, a local artist and coffee roaster and shop. We encourage you to come out to the district, there is one in Lacey as well so, should you choose not to come all the way to the good city of Gig Harbor. Additionally, there’s some salt water taffy that represents the shore lines of our district from Key Peninsula to Port Orchard to Bremerton, this is from a local Port Orchard business and I hope you enjoy it. Additionally, you’ll see the lone sailor pen which represents the military service of our district. As you know we have Kitsap Base Bangor in our city in Bremerton, Naval Base Kitsap. I remember it as PSN as always, growing up in Bremerton. The lone sailor pen is reflection of a copy of the statute that is in downtown Bremerton. It’s marker, significance is representing the service and the lives of those that have committed to defend our freedom and our opportunity to gather in this place to make the laws of the land. So, from me to you, a little gift and I appreciate the gentle-natured ribbing. My rib back to all of you; I knew this place needed a doctor, I just didn’t realize it was a physiatrist that you all needed. And with that Mr. President, I rest.”

REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT

President Owen: “Senator Schlicher.”

PERSONAL PRIVILEGE

Senator Schlicher: “I know that we got you one and I hope that the Pages will be soon bringing one up to the good President for his enjoyment. Having noticed the failure of prior presenters to appropriately do so, we made sure that we had you covered Mr. President.”

PERSONAL PRIVILEGE

Senator Fain: “Thank you Mr. President, as the former youngest member of this body I congratulate you. I’m happy to be an old timer now so… That whole year and a half that separates us.”
