Boy, that would explain a LOT of things:

A House staffer thinks he may have uncovered the reason why convicted Ohio Rep. James Traficant - who used to end all of his floor speeches with "Beam Me Up, Mr. Speaker" - acts so erratically.

The staffer was flipping through the official Rap Dictionary at www.rapdict.org and discovered that "Beam Me Up, Scotty" is slang for "give me some crack."

"Ending his speeches with 'Beam Me Up, Mr. Speaker,' Rep. Traficant may all these years have been pleading for drugs," joked the staffer.
