This day today I am very proud of my wingman al-Zawahri, who has made very courageous statement about the sensitive issue of Barack Obama and race.

My own view is very much like that of al-Zawahri, but I should tell you that I do very much enjoy jazz. It is my very favorite of all musics. Even I could not hold back tears during Obama's stunning acceptance. What a virtuoso! That improvisation!

My very favorite part was the big finale. When Obama let loose that a capella scat solo without losing a beat. Goosebumps!

Let me see if I can get it down:  Ba da doo de da da rat a tat pop pop pat

Yeah, like that. So anyway, jazz is cool and I am thankful to Obama for that. But everything al-Zawahri has said is still true.

Oh, now that I have think of it--I also like peanut butter. Peanut butter and jazz. That's it!
