A Utah woman says she encountered only brief resistance when she
recently had her driver’s license photo taken while wearing a colander
on her head as a religious statement.
Asia Lemmon, whose legal name appears on her driver’s license as
Jessica Steinhauser, said the pasta strainer represents her beliefs in
the satirical Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
....Nannette Rolfe, the director of Utah’s Driver License Division, said
about a dozen Pastafarians have had their state driver’s license photos
taken with a similar colander or pasta strainer on their heads in recent
years. “As long as we can get a visual of the face, we’re fine if they choose to wear the headgear,” she said.
Hats and headgear are not allowed for driver’s license photos unless they’re religious garments, Rolfe said.
Ms. Steinhauser is a (presumably) retired porn star, so maybe she will be able to commercialize her religious beliefs in the grand tradition;
