[H2O Man]

11. Yes.

Oren is such a wise human being. Back in the late 1980s, there were Democrats asking if he would consider serving as Secretary of State when we took back the White House. Unfortunately, a Haudenosaunee (Six Nations Iroquois Confederacy) Chief cannot serve in a foreign government. Too bad, as Oren was the most sought after speaker on Earth at the time.

Have I ever told you about where I first knew Oren from? Oren was quite an athlete in his younger days. He was on the lacrosse team with future football great Jim Brown at Syracuse University. Like Paul Waterman, he also loved boxing. In the mid-1970s, he and the legendary Carmen Basilio trained heavyweight Greg Sorrentino. My brother-in-law fought Greg twice, and Oren and I were in the opposing corners. I see Greg at the Golden Gloves these days, and love talking with him about when we were young.
