[Vision2020] Wrestling Match

[Saundra Lund]

ROTFLOL!  Keep me posted as to the progress of getting this event scheduled!

In a *fair* match, I've no doubt you'd win, Rose.  However, given what we
know of Wilson's notion of fairness, I'm far less certain than Mr. Blanton
of the outcome, I'm sorry to say.

Visionaries:
 
Write-in candidate Randy Blanton suggested at Thursday's Daily News debate,
that he would like to see "Mr. Klan" and concerned citizen, Rosemary Huskey
in a wrestling match - and that he would be confident of the outcome.  I've
known Randy since he was in 3rd grade and a charter member of the Russell
School "Chicago Hippies."  He was always a perceptive little rascal. 
 
Although challenges for cage fighting are the forte of my daughter-in-law,
Joan Opyr, Randy's remarks have a certain appealing  resonance.  Imagine the
scene in the Logos Gym (the same unhappy venue where little boys beat on
each other for the enjoyment of their classmates, siblings, friends, parents
and grandparents)  if Doug and I settled the local culture wars, - winner
take all.  
 
The visual of two Sumo-sized aging wrestlers is not aesthetically pleasing,
but perhaps it could be a fund raising event - I'd be happy to donate my
share of the gate to local food banks - as a penitent acknowledgement of my
own gluttony.  Perhaps Mr. Klan can be persuaded to donate his share to the
Southern Poverty Law Center's education fund - old dogs can be taught new
tricks.  
 
I've attached a free trading card for the event, for those who collect such
items.

suggestion)
