The truth unmasked:

TheSdog was right about one thing when he said that “Pravda” chose me to be an Alaska Voice because I am a “left wing hack.” [see archived "How I wound up on this blog"] You gotta admit---the Anchorage Daily News has a sense of humor.

I am reminded of a scene in the funniest vampire movie of all time: “Love At First Bite.” Richard Benjamin plays a Doctor (grandson of legendary Dr. Von Helsing) who wants to protect his girl friend (Susan Saint James) from a vampire played by George Hamilton. In frustration, he bursts into a restaurant where the couple is seated and begins blasting away at George Hamilton with a pistol while reassuring startled patrons: “It’s all right---I’m a doctor!”

Explanatory Note For Doctors Only:

It was not because he was a doctor that actor-in-a- movie, Richard Benjamin, fired a pistol at George Hamilton---it was because he was frustrated. - R.
