My friend from Boston, the one I haven't met yet, Dmitry Orlov, does an interview here with VOA Russian on his sailboat, Hogfish. I can only get a few phrases here and there of the Russian, but it is neat to see what one of those wintered boats looks like inside.
Did I mention D.O. is a sailor?

I DID MEET RON PAUL!!!!!!!
FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!
On January 8, 2008, my friend and I went up to work for Ron Paul in Keene, New Hampshire. I have so many memories of that evening, from posting RP signs in massive snowbanks along Massachusetts Routes 119 and 12 to a confrontation with some "imported" Hillary helpers, pow-wowing with other RP volunteers, and finishing it all off at the big Holiday Inn in Concord to meet the Congressman himself in person.
I will never forget the excitement of that night.
Anyway, after a really charged atmosphere with music and some "END THE FED" chants, we all headed for a handshake and autograph with our hero, the good doctor. I actually got in close and shook his hand twice, the second time I got a cool fellow to snap a picture. I gave him my email address to send the photo, but I haven't heard from him to this day, so I never had proof that I had met Ron Paul....
...Until now!
THE SET UP...
I can't stand this woman, Ann Coulter. She is rude and extremely ignorant in my opinion. So, guess what... Now she wants to get behind Ron Paul! Yeah, right. These neo-cons want to hijack the RP Liberty movement in this country in order to squash it. It is so disgusting...
But back to me and RP. The video actually talks about Coulter, so you are spared from listening to the creature. I enter the picture at about the 2:00 mark. You will also see the fellow snapping the photo of me and the doctor. I hope the fellow is alright. Anyway, I am so happy that I can share that special moment with you. I never dreamed that I would stumble upon it on youtube!

The Little Chap Who Follows Me
The Little Chap Who Follows Me
Author: Unknown
A careful man I want to be;
A little fellow follows me.
I do not dare to go astray
For fear he'll go the self same way.
I cannot once escape his eyes,
Whate'er he sees me do, he tries.
Like me he says he's going to be;
The little chap who follows me.
He thinks that I'm so very fine,
Believes in every word of mine.
The base in me he must not see;
The little chap who follows me.
I must remember as I go
Through summer's sun and winter's snow,
I'm building for the years to be;
The little chap who follows me.
