Rep. Jared Polis Pays Sweet Homage to Robin William’s Mork and Mindy

Robin Williams‘s breakout role was the spastic alien from the planet Ork in the show Mork and Mindy, which took place in Boulder, Colorado. Mork and Mindy’s house also happens to be in the middle of the congressional district represented by Jared Polis (D-CO), and today, he took his young son to pay tribute:
