I think Ken Hamblin (The Black Avenger as I recall) is living somewhere in the mountains. I met him once at a Republican election night event. He was kind of a jerk. He and Tom Tancredo were arguing about something. But he got better as he aged.

Just a little tidbit: My Dad and Ronald Reagan were friends since before World War II. We received a nice sympathy call from RR when Dad died in 1974. I met RR in 1984 at Stapleton Airport when I was campaigning for him.

Ah geez laplata. Your stories just keep getting better and better. Not that hearing Berg being killed was a good story. Didn’t mean that. But how great that your dad was friends with RR! Wow! Lots of Colorado history and national history, too. :)

My parents live right by old Stapleton Airport in old Aurora. That’s where I grew up. :) And I’m still here in old Aurora. Lots of new housing continuing to go up at Stapleton. Stapleton gone. Fitz gone. Lowry gone.

Did RR know when you met him you were the son of his friend?
