True story. Went to Subway and found a plastic glove in there. The "Sandwich Specialist" was pretty embarrassed.

Okay, I'm a ditz. . . .I didn't look at the pic. . .I didn't look at the dates. I started reading this, and thought you were talking about KWEKU! I went so far as to imagine you knowing a SENATOR!
By the time I got down to the "president" one, I had figured it out!
I'm sure there is blonde hair on my head somewhere!
Just one?
I agree with Angie, it sounds like you are talking about Kweku - and I am not even blonde (in fact I am far from being it).
The picture is huge.
Perhaps I will have to tell you all a little more about Kweku.
Gee you think? Maybe you could tell us SOMETHING about Kweku.
That would be a start.
