CALIFORNIA State Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has tried to encourage lawmakers to pass a tough budget by sending them a sculpture of bull's testicles.
The US state is facing a $US24.3 billion ($30 billion) shortfall this year.
Senate President Darrell Steinberg wasn't amused, sending Schwarzenegger a note in return lecturing him on not taking proceedings seriously.
The steel, football-sized testicles came back, too.
Perhap Mr Steinberg was miffed that the Governator's attempt at humour was better than his own attempt to raise a laugh by sending Arnie a bag of mushrooms.
Schwarzenegger had claimed the Democrats' budget proposals to deal with the shortfall were “hallucinatory”.

Re: Schwarzenegger sends lawmakers steel testicles
I wonder if they were modeled after Pelosi's shriveled set?
