Senator Strom Thurmond belongs to my gym.
\nI see him there three, four times a week.
\nOn the treadmill.
\nSculpting his biceps.
\nHis rock hard abs.
\nHe doesn’t listen to music while he works out.
\nHe just stares straight ahead
\nwith his iron skull and his
\nwide, bony eye sockets.
\nI try to tell him it’s overkill.
\n“Senator, really.
\nAt your advanced age
\none time a week
\nwould be more than enough.”
\nHe snarls at me. “Son,” he says.
\n“You don’t know beans.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
