September 30, 2004 -- JOHN Kerry is one bronzed candidate - or is that tan-di-date? The Democratic nominee and windsurfing enthusiast says he picked up his brand-new glow at a football game last week in Massachusetts - just in time for tonight's first presidential debate.
But can a rain-drenched New Yorker get a Kerry glow in time for the debate?
To find out, I tried the friendly folks at Hollywood Tans on 25th Street and Sixth Avenue.
"I want to look like John Kerry," I announced.
The staff at the front desk laughed.
"I saw that photo," said staffer Iris Elton. She said she wasn't sure they could pull off a pumpkin-orange glow - "but we can make you look really dark," she said.
"How long do you think that would take?"
Elton thought it over.
"Six seconds," she said. "That's for the full-body Instant Tan, which will last about four days."

I heard the following joke:
Kerry, Jack O Lantern: Orange in September, Carved up in October, Thrown out in November.
Kerry is now an orange weirdo.

Take 2 parts "Embarrassment Red" plus 2 parts "Cowardly Yellow" equals One "Kerry Orange"

I went to college in Boston and never could get any tan up there, even when I stayed through the summer. Another episode of Unlikely Stories.

Maybe it was Kerry's subtle way of telling the home audience that we would be in a constant MINUMUM threat level ORANGE if JfK was elected President.

We figure out WHO did the tan...and I'll bet we find the same unimpeachable source that forged the CBS/Burkett documents.
