Sarong man, then and now

Young Obama in love. It's worse than you think.

Here's a classic example of too much information. Via JWF:

She talked about how Obama walked around his bedroom bare-chested, dressed in a blue and white sarong while working on a New York Times crossword puzzle.

“I open the door that Barack keeps closed to his room and enter in a warm, private space pervaded by a mixture of smells that so strongly speak of his presence, his liveliness, his habits — running sweat, Brut spray deodorant, smoking, eating raisins, sleeping, breathing,” Cook wrote.

Obama and Cook would date for a year. He was 22 and she was 25 when they met.

Cook said when she told Obama she loved him, he responded: “Thank you.”

Well, at least he was polite, huh? Ultimately, she figured out that he was sarong guy for her.

Wait ten seconds for the creation of the bumper sticker:

Barack Obama, Sarong Man for America

Linked at [fanfare, please] Yahoo Answers! To put it gently, it's one of the least useful sites on the internet, but this question from NCR Elite is a good one:

When bare-chested, sarong wearing Barry Soteoro responded to "I love you" with "Thank you" was he being modest?

when he could've said "I know."?

or "I love U2, they're a great band"
