Old Geezer sees U.S. Senate seat as new meal ticket Supra Bandit

U.S. Adidas Shoes Sen. Chris Dodd's sudden announcement that he will not run for re-election in November came as no surprise to the Old Geezer.For years, when the Geezer spotted Dodd at public events he'd make sure the senator knew that he intended to run against him in an upcoming election. It is true that the Geezer only ran into Dodd once; it was back in 1992 when Dodd's caravan passed through Bridgeport on Interstate 95 on its way to a fundraiser at a Greenwich polo club. (Dodd would have stopped in Bridgeport, but he thought it was part of Rhode Island.) When Dodd's car had to stop for an overturned trailer truck near Wordin Avenue, the Geezer Supra Shoes jumped on the hood of a State Police cruiser and shouted his election challenge at Dodd. The senator conveniently pretended not to hear him and the Geezer was briefly constrained by the police.Because holding elective office endangered his status as a lifetime Meals On Wheels recipient, the Geezer chose not to challenge Dodd. Most experts believe, however, it was Dodd's constant worry about an impending Geezer candidacy that brought on his stunning announcement Wednesday. It was certainly what turned his hair white and many think it was the real reason he tried to move his family to Iowa.The Geezer was also reluctant to run against Dodd because it is against his Calvinist upbringing to put a man with a family out of work.But now that Dodd has at last given in to the pressure and stepped aside, the Geezer officially announced his candidacy for Supra Bandit senator from Connecticut.
