I hope you realize you just swore in another vote for sage grouse. Utah, for too long, has been at 75 percent. We are now united at a full 100 percent, which means, Mr. Amodei, be careful: we are going to reannex eastern Nevada. Mr. Curtis comes here with a background of being mayor of Provo City, so he understands local government. He is going to be a fine addition to our body. I look forward to it. As he has taken the place of Jason Chaffetz, he is going to be in Mr. Chaffetz's office. I just want you to know, as you are getting settled in and before you find your proper bed, I think I can get you a good deal on a used cot. I am pleased to yield to the gentleman from Utah (Mr. Curtis), our new Representative.
