Levity in today’s hotly-debated political climate

An online email sent to my local national legislative member (a/k/a MC, Member of Congress, Congressman), named the 2011 Fighting Freshman of the Year

Congressman Brooks:

Recently, a dance instruction studio — Kinesthetic Cue Dance Club, located at 8006 Old Madison Pike in Madison, Alabama — celebrated its 13th birthday.

As customers, my wife and I would like, with the consent of the owner, Harold Renneberg III, to recognize this achievement.

Harold is a military veteran with a good sense of humor.

In today’s climate of political polarity, we would like you to sponsor a motion to declare the 1st of April “Male Pattern Baldness Awareness Day,” to which Harold Renneberg, going bald himself, is quite fond of saying he’s fully aware is much needed.

Not only would this give us men growing bald patches a moment to reflect on our shiny domed pates, it would show that military veterans ARE finding viable ways to be productive members of society by opening local businesses and creating much-needed jobs.

We thank you in advance for your assistance in promoting this day and honoring Harold on his business milestone.

We wish you well in the upcoming election and are glad you have represented our district with dignity and dedication.

Sincerely,
Richard L. Hill, II
