A different kind of hot
A running gag meant to poke fun at House Speaker Greg Curtis turned slightly uncomfortable Thursday.
Recently the Utah League of Cities and Towns asked Utahns on the street to identify politicians by their picture -- kind of a local version of Jay Leno's Jaywalking.
One man said Curtis looked like Donald Trump, only heavier and without the trademark hair. One young woman said that Curtis was "hot."
So to play off of the funny video, shown at a luncheon, every lawmaker was given a cutout of Trump to hold in front of their face at the end of the Thursday floor session.
House Majority Leader Dave Clark then said: "While I may not agree that you look like a chubby Donald Trump, I will recognize the other comment -- that you sure are the hottie."
Then everyone turned the cutout around. The other side had the word "hottie" printed on it.
We are not sure if Curtis was amused or even concerned by Clark's comment, but we know he wasn't surprised. A clerk inadvertently gave Curtis the Trump cutout ahead of time. But Curtis still tried to salvage the situation with an uncomfortable comment of his own.
"If anyone knows who that young lady was, I would sure like to know her name."

That Greg Curtis is no Donald Trump.
If he were a Trump or Thump type guy I wodda stopped him at the front door. If he were able to take advantage of my aged body, there would have been 8 sons all over 200 pounds to crush him.
My daughter "Teresa" who is now Gregs wife told ME and her eight (8) BROTHERS that Greg was a real "Hottie" and to back off. When that women speaks we all back off. Greg is the Father of 6 of my 28 Grand Children.
Between myself and Teresa's eight big honking brothers Greg was well prepared to be Speaker Of the Utah House. Those Utah House members are a "piece of cake" compared too what this "hottie' went through and continues to go through with my family.
If Greg (Hottie) says anything Just Tell Him; To Bad, So Sad Your Dad-In-Law.

PS. I had to be an extra Hottie to trap and capture Teresa's mom,and my wife Elly and when that woman points her finger at me and says; now listen big boy. I back off... Everyone Reports to someone.
