re: #503 Dr Lizardo

LOLOLOL.

In the late 80s, up in Portland, Oregon, I got invited to an NOI rally by two NOI members, upon whom I apparently made a very favorable impression. Let’s say for once, I truly stood out in life, and oooh, nelly, I mean it. Fortunately, the attendees were all very nice, and I even met Farrakhan face-to-face. I didn’t hear anything anti-Semitic at this particular event, but it was the usual NOI stuff. I have to say, Farrakhan is one hell of a speaker; he’s a man who knows how to use the power of the spoken word like few others. I find his message…..bizarre, but well-delivered.

Public Speaking is a Talent that is difficult to acquire, IMHO. It takes charisma that one has to be inborn.

I find myself respecting those who use and hone that talent, even if I don’t agree with the message.

Some take it to the level of an Art.
