[Fred Douglass]

....one "knee grow" I'd vote for ahead of all other candidates of any skin tonation (with the possible exception of the hottie who winked at me!) is ex-Lt. Governor of Maryland Michael S. Steele. I met him at a Young Republicans dinner at Harvard College!!!!!! (Yes, there are Republicans at Harvard!) He is extremely impressive. Huge guy (6'5", a collegiate champion fencer [!] and a brilliant and humorous speaker).

BTW why do y'all think that the Youse Navy took me into OCS in 1968? Hint: see how I sign me name on this site! Back then, you couldn't declare "race, creed or color" on the applications----guess they guessed wrong aboot me! Ar-ar-ar-ar-oooooo-gah!

Most days (depending on exposure to the sunlight) I resemble a large, cuddly, pinkish-white go-freakin'-illa!!!! (see pichah gallery)

Oh and BTW#2, Buzz, today's around-the-island sprint race shall be clockwise (to wear in the starboard tires!)
