R E S O L U T I O N
         WHEREAS, Rarely have the members of the Texas House of
  Representatives seen anything as spectacular in the halls of the
  Capitol as the moustache of the Honorable Andrew Murr, the
  representative for District 53; and
         WHEREAS, Before making its show-stopping debut in the Texas
  Legislature, Representative Murr's impressive handlebar moustache
  was previously employed in the movie Tombstone, where it graced the
  upper lip of Kurt Russell during the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral,
  and it is distantly related to the somewhat curlier moustache of
  Snidely Whiplash, the bushier moustache of Tom Selleck, and the
  more fastidiously trimmed moustache of Clark Gable; and
         WHEREAS, The latest in the proud tradition of manly facial
  hair, this is truly a Murr-stache for the ages, a magnificent,
  two-fisted soup-strainer that will haunt the dreams of
  Representative Murr's colleagues and constituents and echo through
  the annals of Texas lore for as long as the Lone Star flag waves over
  the rugged bluffs and canyons of the Hill Country; now, therefore,
  be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas
  Legislature hereby recognize Representative Andrew Murr's
  moustache as the Official Moustache of the House of Representatives
  of the 87th Texas Legislature and that the representative be
  commended for adding some dashing frontier flair to the house
  chamber.
