The secret message is awesomely funny, but the bill-not-signing is not, seeing that it was a non-earthshattering but necessary smallish bill concerning the SF Port. And probably prompted by the sponsoring assemblyman having yelled at Schwarzenegger a few days earlier to kiss his ass. Seriously, people?
