There WAS at one point a picture of me from college on Facebook - high as a kite with a bong next to me. So no I wouldn’t last. Plus I was an absolute disaster in high school and college. I drank until I projectile vomited pretty much every weekend and most nights during the summer.

I have no idea what the standards even are these days.

Considering the fact that I would be unwilling to run for office as a Democrat under any circumstances, the answer is definitely, no.

Hell no.
Even if I were squeaky clean, why would I want to put myself and family through all the baseless smears and attacks?

Nope. Dressed as Flavor Flave for Halloween back in late 80's.

Don't Believe The Hype

I’m lucky my current job doesn’t dig too deep.

Well I got arrested for running a train on a hooters girl on the roof of my apt complex’s Office....

But, I went to jail in just a beach towel, misspelled my name, couldn’t remember my SSN. They got fingerprints & mug. So I guess if somebody went digging in the Tarrant county database from 20 years ago, I’d be screwed lol


Sooo nah

I might need a ruling.

I went as Flavor Flav, but didn't actually go in black face.

I might be ok.

Yes I could.....and had to in two of the positions I've held in my career.

Also let me add this. When I was growing up and when I left the Corps., I had my moments. However I never lost sense of what was right and what was wrong. Some of this I owe to the Marine Corps. Most of all I owe this to my parents and the way I was raised. For that I will never be able to thank them enough!

No one under the age of 35 can.

How in the hell we haven't seen the AOC nudes yet is beyond my comprehension. You know they're out there.

Yes. IF they didn't have access to my internet history. And I'm not confident that some digging couldn't bring it up.

You mistake my post to mean what I did was wrong, t wasn’t. I’m not ashamed of it and would gladly tell anyone about it. It was a fun party. Would I do it now? Hell no, but like most I grew up in the intervening 25 years.
