In Colorado our state owned moon rocks were taken by a (now former) Governor. While no one's accusing him of stealing. People are curious as to how and why he wound up with $5 million worth of moon rocks. This one actually is Hysterical History. SEE HERE: http://www.denverpost.com/ci_15207033

I thought Jerry Brown was the former California Governor?

He says he's happy to return them, if they will be displayed ..

Oh the irony. It's sitting in a place where hardly anyone can see it now.

WTH!?!

Right, the display should have not been taken in the first place.

I can't believe the part about he'd offered it to schools and museums in the past and no one showed interest. Moon rocks? Maybe they thought he was smoking dope.

Whoops!  Totally thought that was mine!  Sorry!

I think you are thinking of Governor Moon Beam, not moon rocks.

C'mon, it was an honest mistake, it happens all the time.  Just ask Bill and Hillary...
