Damn, we thought. This question may bother us forever. Until we ran into a person who claimed to have the inside track on the mayor’s trademark glow.
“He has a tanning bed in his house,” this person told us. “I’ve seen it myself, and I’ve seen them change the bulbs.” Interesting, we thought. And though this little bit of gossip is unsubstantiated, unimportant and altogether uninteresting, we receive a strange bit of satisfaction mulling over the image of Jennings in his own private tanning hut. The question that bothers us now, of course, is whether Jennings does his tanning in his briefs or in the buff.
