Panache

You gotta love a candidate with a certain flair for goofy stunts:

BROWNSVILLE, Texas - A Pennsylvania congressional candidate and former reality TV star used an elephant and a six-piece mariachi band for an elaborate political stunt designed to make a point about border security.

Raj Peter Bhakta, who was "fired" by Donald Trump on "The Apprentice" two years ago, paraded an elephant and the band through the water near the mouth of the Rio Grande along the Texas-Mexico border Tuesday.

Giggle.

He's braver (or stupider) than he looks. (Have you seen that water??)

Trivia Q: what was the one hit of One Hit Wonder "Brownsville Station"?

"Smokin' in the Boy's Room". It was popular when we were in J.High, though I never figured out why.

Dang, you're good. (At least that's what I read on the ladies room wall....) :-)

Which wall, and can you get a picture? No one believes me.

A picture of the wall, or a picture of you being "good"? :-P
