Mr. Sulu meets Nina Davuluri, newly crowned Miss America

[Playinghardball]

While doing media rounds for my new YouTube program (at http://ohmyyy.gt/8y0VS8) I serendipitously met Nina Davuluri, newly crowned Miss America. She is the first winner of Indian descent and has endured some racism, which I lambasted in a recent FB post. Nina is gorgeous, delightful and well spoken--and a Star Trek fan. I am in love.

Comment from Alice Mitchell Reynolds: She was born in this country...how is that not American? And yes, she is stunning!

3. Is George going straight??..........

It looks like he is either really happy to see Miss America or he has a canoe in his left pocket. Maybe it's just a shadow. Live long and prosper George.

6. It's a love canoe!

Don't be a hater!

7. I'm not. Sorry if that was your take away from my attempt at a joke......

I'm a big fan and admirer of George.

9. Oops! My bad!

I was playing along! (thus the smiley!)

I thought your comment was quite funny.

10. Not to worry.........

I thought your "love canoe" was hilarious but you confused me with the follow up comment. But then again, I'm easily confused.

Met George in the lobby of a hotel in Anchorage many years ago. He was charming, charismatic and just a really nice guy.
