will be at the Russell County Conference Center in Lebanon this Friday, at 6:00 pm. Supposed to be music and good food, plus a chance to talk to some good politicians. Never met Warner before, pretty excited to see him in person.

You'd be hard pressed to find anything bad about Warner. Is anyone else going? Not everyday you get to see a US Senator like that regardless of who it is.

I met Warner once. I'm just telling what happened so take it for what it's worth.

I was with a very good friend who honestly would not know a democrat from a republican, has never voted in her life and truly could not care less about politics. I've known her for years and would have to say that she has an almost 6th sense about people.

At one time she was head of security at one the bars that I worked at as a bouncer. I could not begin to tell you the number of time she would come to us and point out a person who just walked in and issued a warning to us that this person should be watched, that before the night was over they would cause trouble. I cannot ever remember her being totally wrong. Only thing being the degree of trouble that they would cause before the end of the night.

So back to meeting Warner. He had a couple of people with him and he introduced himself and shook our hands. The instant they moved on out of ear-shot she leaned toward me and said, "who was that"? "He gives me the creeps". "I need to wash my hands" and headed straight to the ladies room.

True story. It wasn't till later that I explained to her that he was the governor. Didn't phase her a bit. In fact she said something like, "figures, that guy is nasty". I didn't ask her elaborate.

A couple of quick things I just remembered. He was running for Governor at the time this happened. Also, recently, probably within the last 1 or 2 years she asked me if "that politician that we met that time is still in office?" I explained to her that he was no longer in the office that he was running for but held another office. She said sometime negative that I can't remember and seemed to be worried by it.
