Just Call Him Governor Slim

The once rotund Christian governor of Arkansas Mike Huckabee (sort of an anti-Bill ideologically speaking) went on a diet and lost a person. He's now slim, trim, and has apparently run a marathon!

I bring him up because he has a new book out with the best title for a diet book I've ever seen:

Stop Digging Your Grave with a Knife and Fork!

Gibson has brag shot of Huckabee and his band, the wryly named Capitol Offense; all the axes are Gibsons, and Huckabee himself, at far left, seems to be playing a 5-string Tobias Growler. I'd interpret this choice is as a marriage of pro-American fiscal prudence (the Growler is the least expensive of the American-built Gibsons) with aesthetic appreciation (I'm not a guitarist, but it's reputed to be a fairly bitchin' bass).
