National Review Institute Conservative Forum, pt 2

I only have a few minutes between events so this will be short, yet silly:

It seemed appropriate to get a photo of Rich Lowry up here since he's the emcee and NR head honcho, and it gives an excuse to create a post with a single photo.

Things you learn while trying to get a photo of Rich Lowry:

1) Rich turns out to be a bit of a blinker when talking, so in 9 of 10 his eyes will be closed.

2) Rich looks MUCH younger in real life than he does on TV.

I mean, I think Rich should be coloring his hair ... gray, to add gravitas.

Rich certainly needs to carry an ID ... and not in order to buy alcohol: in order to prove he's allowed to be out after midnight by himself.

When Rich answers the door to find a salesman there, the saleman always asks the same question: "Are either of your parents home?"

When Rich turns 55 I want to bring him down to my local 7-11 and send him in to buy a six pack ... in order to procure for him the Guiness world record for first retiree to be carded.

Hey, I kid because I love. When he turns 45 he'll definitely appreciate the youthful genes.
