Re: Height. Just turned 65 couple weeks ago. Somehow, I've managed to become an inch-and-a-half shorter while adding three inches to my belly (Guinness maybe?). I'm not the same Michael I used to be when I walk into a bar. It used to be I felt I could walk out with any nice-looking woman in the joint. These days I just sort of hide in the corner--lol! But the worst part to this physical change is I have to get on stage looking like this--lol! Oh, well. I guess this is the downside to putting one's first rock n' roll band together at age 62--lol!

Republicans Demand Return of Passive Obama Credit PHOTOGRAPH BY CHIP SOMODEVILLA/GETTYWASHINGTON, D.C. ( The Borowitz Report)—Congressional Republicans on Friday expressed outrage at the new leadership style that President Obama has demonstrated in the aftermath of the midterm elections, and demanded a return of the “passive and unassertive Obama to which we have grown accustomed.” In a joint statement, House Speaker John Boehner and his counterpart in the Senate, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, accused Obama of “engaging in a flagrant display of leadership that we find deeply offensive.” “For the past six years, we have enjoyed a President who has been conciliatory and acquiescent to the point of emasculation,” Boehner said. “We want that President back.” McConnell threatened that if Obama does not return to his weak and ineffectual ways at once, “he will face the prospect of being a two-term President.” At the White House, the President did not respond to the Republicans’ remarks, telling reporters that he planned to work through the weekend raising the minimum wage, granting amnesty to immigrants, and legalizing marijuana.
