Joe, the Senator

My mom's boyfriend is from Delaware. On Satuday night I chatted with him on the phone and we were talking about Obama's pick of Biden for V.P. and how Biden is a loose cannon. He told me that Biden likes to attend 4 masses each Sunday (catching a little bit of each) so that he can be seen by many.

Then he told me a funny anecdote about the time he met Biden. It turns out that they didn't live too far from each other. One day Biden was walking down the street. He comes up to my mom's boyfriend and says, "Hello. I'm Joe, the Senator," and offers his hand.

My mom's boyfriend accepted the handshake and said dryly, "And I'm Gus, the Doctor."

Great story Henry.

BTW, the re-create 68' protestors (who apparently like to rough up FoxNews journalists) in Denver were just shown on Fox calling for the liberation of those, poor Cuban "prisoners" in US prisons.

Maybe Jimmy Carter will take up their cause tonight when he gives his usual America bashing speech tonight...
