I Know This Makes Me Very Uncool

But I am on the nerdy side. I mean I watched Red Dwarf in the 1980s, in addition to Dr. Who. I even like to wear nerdy-looking glasses.

Why back down from what one is? And if I were smarter I'd be an engineer like Chan.

Having said all that, I don't hesitate in saying, "Yeah, I'd like the President to comply with the Constitution by releasing a valid birth certificate." Call me names, if you want. I don't care.

But there's an awful lot about this man we don't know. It's disconcerting, really. Makes me in the mood for a movie. A 1962 movie staring Frank Sinatra, Laurence Harvey, and Janet Leigh.

Barry Farber has interesting thoughts on birtherism, as well, citing the Sherlock Holmes story "The Dog That Did Not Bark."

I feel compelled to mention that my brother, a novice diplomat with the State Department, caught some flack during his background check that his older brother had been born in West Germany while his father was stationed over there as a second lieutenant.

Notwithstanding the fact that the same older brother attended a service academy for two years, presumably proving his citizenship, repeated requests were made for a copy--a real notarized copy--of a birth certificate from the older brother.

I guess rookie diplomats have a higher bar to cross than a mere Commander in Chief.
