I heard "American Pharaoh" and thought "so Fox News has a new Obama zinger.. DiO will be posting that anytime now..." :)
Not at all. What does Barack Obama have to do with being "American?" ;) (just kidding)

But I do like symbolism. Obama was the first president to have a triple crown since Carter.

Will the horse get to visit the White House?

Drinking isn't her vice for sure... It's large handsome men with flowing locks and a whip crack sense of all things. I was competing with Mellencamp, ya know. That might be why he wasn't so friendly to me...
I had pretty much the same dream once after doing battle with a bottle of Tequila. Although the only guy with flowing locks in the dream was Weird Al Yankovic. :)

I have a picture with him and my son a couple years ago when he played Clearwater. We stayed after and met him and got some autographs. He was sitting in the doorway of his tour bus. As we came around the open door I said "Al!!! My brother in hair!!!" We have almost the same hair (except mine is a darker shade of black). He thought it was pretty humorous. My son had hi sign his greatest hits CDs and i had him sign something that somehow no one had ever thought of in all his years, and which he found hilarious. I had him sign a package of Oscar Mayer bologna. I said 'Al, will you sign My Bologna?". I still have it in my fridge and the bologna is still pink. Scary.

You went to see him and brought along a package of Oscar Mayer bologna and a greatest hits CD? Now, from most other people I’d think that might be a bit strange, but with you... :)

Of course, I might want to listen to some music and have a snack!

The venue isn't that big and has a fairly open external layout. I left it in the car and grabbed them after.

Okay, so the question now to ponder is why would someone let a package of Oscar Mayer bologna sitting in a car, in the hot Florida sun, with plans of eating it several hours later?

Well, that's just it... I never planned on eating it. It's still in the package and looks as fresh as a new one. Plus I put it in a little lunch cooler and it was night time. It was hot though.
