What an embarrassment #bbclaurak continues to be
#bbclaurak tries to get a gotcha. Zack, you refuse to fly. How can you be a candidate for high office if you'd refuse to ever get on a plane?

So fun fact and moment of small success from me....
When I was 17 I bought a bass guitar, mainly because I was a Beatles fan and wanted to be like Paul McCartney. I was never particularly good and ended up spending more time with a regular guitar, then no time at all with either for 20 years.
