Back to the subject at hand....my run for the presidency. As you recall, we went over to Spokane WA on Friday to see the play Jersey Boys. I thought it was about some guys wearing jerseys, then find out it's about Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. Big disappointment, but I got to admit the guys wearing the jerseys and pretending to be the Four Seasons could sing pretty good.

We stayed at the Northern Quest Hotel and Casino...a big place, very luxurious, and a good place to lose lots of money. I was hoping to make some and up my campaign coffers somewhat.
I got ahead at one machine then promptly bet big to make a killing and lost it all. All of $10.

So after the play on Friday night we, (cousin Randy, my 4-wheeling buddy) and his wife, and my wife are heading down to play the machines. Randy and I are headed back to our rooms to change out of our "Good clothes" into our gambling clothes. Which means we changed from black tennis shoes to dirty white ones. I kept the rumpled Packer T shirt and ripped jeans on. I'm walking in the lobby and almost run over Loretta Lynn. She's doing a concert on Saturday night there. We get to talking and loud mouth Randy says that I'm running for President. She starts to laugh, then asks, straight faced mind you, what ticket I'm on.

"I don't have a ticket Ms. Lynn. We didn't get tickets to your concert as it was sold out."

Loretta: "Well we can take care of that. How would you and your families like to see the concert from the wings?"

So the goofy looking groupie with her reaches into his man-bag and hands us 4 passes to the concert....back stage mind you.

So we spent Saturday evening watching 80 year old Loretta Lynn do a concert, praying that she didn't have a heart attack on stage. It was a great concert and she can still sing pretty good.

I did get her autograph, but damn, damn, damn, I forget to ask her for a campaign contribution. So, I'm still about $5.38 in the hole. Oh well, win some, lose some.

Hmm...

It appears Bob is halfway a politician. He can sweet talk the ladies. That's a plus.

Forgetting that $$$ is half of it, big minus.


On a serious note, that was really cool. Always a plus to meet real life talent, especially one who has seen the world as much as Ms. Lynn. I know I'd find her WAY more interesting than any 20-something pop princess.

Or either of the two Presidential "front runners".

Then again, a 20-something pop princess is more interesting than BOMR.

---

Oh, no question I'd rather spend an evening with a 20-something pop princess than BOMR.

Since Obama became president the Packers are 8-1 vs the Bears including playoffs. I know who I'm voting for!\:d/


Oh.... and 41-15 [rockon]

Maybe we'll sweep them if he picks Jay Cutler as his VP (as long as he gets Sundays off to play)

George and Ringo?[grin1]

Thats John, not Ron.

Nonstop white noise.. that is all I hear.
