A few small repairs
Rep. John Kriesel's finished his first session in the Minnesota house, but not without some roadside repairs. One of the friction fittings that aligns one of his artificial legs came loose during the evening's debate.
Here's House staffer Steve Tigges, getting Kriesel back on his feet, literally, with a handful of zip ties and a roll of black gaffer tape.
"The one night I was really ready to get out of here and get home, and this happens," Kriesel says. "At least it wasn't while I was walking."
