The upcoming political changes got me thinking...
Has the USA ever had a slalom skiing President or Vice-President? Cabinet member? Political platforms need to address this wanton lack of representation! I'm off to get my dry-suit for an end-of-year ski run so that I can express my political opinion... JQ |

I thought I saw an old video of JFK waterskiing years ago.
My favorite musician became Alan Jackson since he did a video and was water skiing in the video. |

Clint Eastwood was mayor of Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA
Seems that Mayor Eastwood was known to rip it on a slalom waterski. (Note the butterfly handles and the shocking lack of USCG approved flotation device)  JQ |

Just incredible what we share with some of the greats in society. Who would have thought Jackie O could execute a paired slalom deep water start.

Certainly no one too famous, but in 1976 I taught waterskiing to a U.S. senators daughter and to comedian Harvey Corman's daughter.

I was amazed that it looks like Jackie O got up on one ski in a tandem pull!
