A Love Letter to LoLo Jones, from Calves McKenzie, note by Larry Eder

I am not sure how to explain Calves McKenzie…..

The first time I saw Calves on a video, I was alarmingly fascinated and unnerved.
Yet, like a crowd clapping at an older gentleman walking down a beach in Florida in a florescent yellow thong, I feel that Calves McKenzie will develop a huge following.

His second video is a Love Letter to LoLo Jones. Like the nearly half million folks who follow LoLo on twitter, Calves McKenzie is obsessed with Ms. Jones.
This video reminds me of a 1970 Barry White video, with the exception of the choice of music…

The bubble bath, the line about Hands Across America, all add to the mystique.
We promise to print the response from Ms. Jones, if any.

Dante had his muse, her name was Beatrice. Calves McKenzie has his muse, and her name is LoLo Jones…..

We suggest that
Ms. Jones realize that Calves McKenzie means no harm, and his love is real, well as real as Calves McKenzie and his charmed, warped little world…

A warning, this video will offend many, but should also make them smile….unless you do not possess a sense of humor, then you have much more difficult issues….
