  11. Doug, you made me laugh all the way from SC. You are so witty. I love the all gold shot and the "Brother, can you spare a mime?" made me laugh out loud.

  14. That fellow goes all out to equipment himself to attract attention and some money. I hope that makeup is easier to get off that I suspect it is. An amazing sight to see!
