On the second-to-last day of his term, he signed the act creating the Minnesota Territory, and for that, he got his name on one of the state’s 87 counties.

Two years later, Vaughn Meader’s “The First Family,” did the same.

Funny how the Grammy comedy category has changed
Fewer comedians are recording proper comedy albums on major labels and are instead turning to DIY options such as YouTube, Twitter and podcasting, as well as TV specials, to get their jokes out there.
