Also shook hands with Evander Holyfield


Evander trained in Galena Park, TX at the same gym I went to when I first moved to Houston in 1996. I never sparred with him but saw him a lot. He was kinda a dick back then since this was way before he lost his millions and became humble.

Not an American President, but I did meet former Mexican President Vincinte Fox at IAH this year.

Shook Donald Rumsfeld's hand and ate lunch with him in a group setting in 2010 (he was the keynote speaker at our annual corp meeting in Palm Beach).

Not a president but most people believe it was he and Cheney who were really in control during the GWB administration.

Dude was funny, genuine, sharp and seemed like a nice guy. Cheney must've been the evil one in the cabinet.

prior to the SOTU speech that killed his career.


The SOTU speech was embarrassing but it was recoverable from.

Being an absentee Governor that completely abandoned Louisiana and being so small and petty enough to do everything he could to make sure a certain GOP candidate was not his successor is what killed his political career.

If Jindal let the Presidential delusions go, stayed in Louisiana and actually governed like he did in his first term, and was a loyal solider for conservatives and got Vitter elected Governor, very good chance Jindal would be a US Senator right now.

Vitter elected Governor


100% Conservative here! No way in hell did he deserve to be Governor of this state!! This is why we have JBE as governor. Because of foolishness like this, and the Majority of the Republican party in this state supporting no good candidates like Vitter and Rispone! But if they were Liberals with the same record as those two, same people would be killing them!! I hope yall figure it out before its too late! Well in reality it already is for this cycle.
