Kinky for Gov!

Meeting Kinky. Such an amazing experience. I could have set there for hours. Even with my expanding bladder. Just about everyone could appreciate the humor that is Kinky Friedman, some lacked the quality. But overall, I enjoyed myself immensely. And would sit in a crowded auditorium all over again. I don't mind people trying to back themselves with quotes and such, but damn, is it really fair to quote something that was said in 1980? We change, our opinions change. Isn't that what this country is based on? I guess some don't think so.

I'm really tired of people calling Kinky a racist. If he's a racist, then Rick Perry is racist towards gays and lesbians. So let's not even go there. Can't point fingers, unless you're gonna be fair about it. And I'm not pointing, fingers. Yet.

I had a chance to chat with Kinky, and he's absolutely one of the nicest guys you're gonna meet. He was very happy to sign whatever you wanted. (He would have so signed my jeans.) He reminded me so much of Drake Hogestyn. Eager to meet with his supporters, and make small talk. He wasn't pushy, and just went with the flow. He made sure everyone waiting in line, got to meet with him. Such a nice man. And hilarious at that.

Speaking of Drake. Happy Birthday. Like he'll see it. But it's out there. I saw Maya Angelou on my birthday, and Kinky on Drake's...funny...within two weeks I've met some pretty kick ass people.

Anyway...I'm posting more pics...so enjoy.
