Palmetto Scoop: "The governor who dropped off the face of the Earth

along the Appalachain Trail. That explanation of Mark Sanford's
disappearance has puzzled many folks in South Carolina and across the
country... Well, The Palmetto Scoop have discovered the answer to all
the secrecy: the governor may have gone for a naked hike. No, really.
An Associated Press article from last week heralded Sunday -- Father's
Day -- as 'Naked Hiking Day' on the Appalachian Trail. Yes, Naked
Hiking Day."

Possible, because Sanford has a well-deserved rep as a crackpot. He's
the male equivalent of Sarah Palin.

On Father's Day. He has four boys from what I recall, all young.
