So here was stardom staring right at mc with Ted Koppel eyes. 1 wasn't going to blow iL As Bush's six-bus caravan left the tail- gatcr party, I began tailgating him in my Subaru. I trailed him until his party stopped to eat at a restaurant. Disguised as a waiter, I was able to get close to ask him my questions and get his standard answers, along with a nice tip. Alter his seventh free helping of quiche, I got him to stop beating around the bush and lo tell all he knew. It went a little something like this: "Pierre (my undercover name), can you keep a secret?." Bush began. "I've always been a big Fresno Suite sports fan. Do you know that 1 could'vc pitched for the Bulldogs in 1948? "Well, anyway. 1 love Fresno. Last week, I was looking at the polls and saw that I had 54% of the voles. 22% voted for Dukakis, and 24% were undecided be¬ tween Orel Hershiscr and Kirk Gibson. "So I asked myself, 'George, since you're the president come January, why don't you pick who you really want to run the USA?' * "I answered. 'You know, dial's not a bad idea.' So that, Pierre, is why I am in Fresno today. I have just finished meet¬ ing with my future cabinet members." The vice president continued talking in 30 two-minute intervals telling me all about who were going to be our national Icailers, before bidding mc farewell. After he left, I sprinted out of that restaurant quicker than sou could say, ^ "Mickey Hatcher," so I could confirm what the Republican presidential candidate jusi told me. • I lave now got all my facts straight and, by George, I think I've got it - the scoop of the year and Bush's lo-Dc-named appointees: •- MIKE WATNEY, FSU golf coach lurned USA vice president: Who needs a Quayle, when your vice president can get a birdie or eagle on any course in the land? If Wamey were a heartbeat away from the presidency no one would be worried. Remember how Gerald Ford was a Watergate away from the presidency? Remember how he embarrassed the sport of golf? With Watney in office, you wouldn't have to worry about gelling hit by golf balls when you walked ihe streets at night. . Also, he kinda looks like Quayle and/ talks like him. So who would reajly notice? ——^S^ Plus, he has more^uaTflicaiions of a young Jack Kennedy (notice how neither Dan nor I said "how young"). ■ JIM SWEENEY, FSU football coach turned USA presidential spokesman: You can be sure thai if Sweeney were in die campaign in June, no one would have called Bush "a wimp." If they did. Sweeney would have ap¬ plied the "gelling under his chin" hit thai Bulldog linemen learn before they become league champions. Or his response to Ann Richards' famous question "Where was George?" "He's in the White House, Ann baby. Where did Michael go?" TRACY ROGERS, FSTJ All- American linebacker turned USA Sccreuiry of Defense: Tracy is belter than Suit Wars. Shoot, he's better than Lethal Weapon" and "Die Hard", too. When a foreign country docs something to disturb Bush, all he has to do is hit the ' red button and Tracy will tackle everyone in that country's backficld. He would then rename the territory Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. Pretty soon the whole world would walk around in yellow sweaters, while tennies. and wearing a smile while sing-1 ing a happy tunc. What a wonderful world ihis would be. GARY CUNNINGHAM, FSU athletic director turned USA Supreme Court Chief Justice: Who else to determine what's right and_wjaii£ in ihis country?
