...ALSO...

Gary would like to direct your attention to his picture.

Note that he is black.

That is because his mother and father are black and their mother and father before them so on and so forth with some connection to Thomas Jefferson.

Probably.

Anyway, he’d like you to know that because he’s proud of it and with a name like his sometimes you gotta explain.
