Reggie Love: Body Man.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/27/us/politics/27reggie.html


Want to know why this guy is the bizness? It's not because he walked onto the basketball team at Duke AND playing wide receiver on a football scholarship. It's not because he's part of a recently victorious, historic presidential campaign.
It's because his name is "Reggie Love."
And his title, is "Body Man."

Electionween.

I've been reflecting a lot on how much I like having Halloween right in the middle of election season, as if by design, to cast an ironic light on all the posturing and costuming and cosmetics and, yeah, whoring. Both Halloween and elections seem to help people justify being a little or a lot whorier than social norms normally permit them to, whether morally or politically. Or, you know, both.
