Roger & Kay Lani & Michael & Ted & Alice & Me
I've always regarded it as my greatest accomplishment that Kay Lani attended my wedding. Yes, I'm talking about that same Miss America (née Michigan) who gets mugged by Michael Moore in Roger and Me. I like what this reviewer says about her:
Low-level GM public-relations people make squirmy, evasive statements; elderly women on a golf course are confused as to what’s wanted of them; visiting entertainers are cheery and optimistic; Miss Michigan, who is about to take part in the Miss America Pageant, tries to look concerned and smiles her prettiest. What does Moore expect? Why are these people being made targets for the audience’s laughter?When you meet Kay Lani, you get what you expect, a conversation with with someone who is profoundly emotionally intelligent and personable. Gov. John Engler tried to recruit her to run for the Michigan state senate, which made perfect sense to me.
Tomorrow, I'll reveal my shameful, shadowy business dealings with Dick Cheney, and explain just exactly how I managed to become so rich, powerful, admired, and feared.

Yes, Kay Lani & Me, at your wedding. How is her marriage? I was thinking if there is some trouble there she'd do well with an average, not terribly successful guy-you know, the kind of guy who'd worship the ground she walks on. Unfortunately, the only woman at your wedding gushing over me was a septegenarian I met in the receiving line.
Anyway, what struck me about Michael Moore's attempted ambush of Kay Lani in Roger & Me was the stupidity of his question to her. He asked what she thought about Roger Smith closing GM plants in Flint. She responded with something to the effect that she was not in favor of people losing their jobs. Moore no doubt thought he made her look foolish, but as they say, ask a silly question, get a silly answer. To anyone outide of a Cannes audience, it is clear that Kay Lani got the better of that stupid white male in the exchange. Please tell her I say hello.
That's Kaye Lani Rae Rafko-Wilson RN to you buddy!
It looks like she's acquired one new name appendix every few years. She can take my blood pressure any time... and maybe my temperature if she's lucky...

I was a little disturbed when my G00GLE search for "Kay Lani" turned up nothing but p0rn.
In 1980 I new Kay Lani in Fort Lauderdale Florida. She spent vacation at her grandmothers home with her girlfriend Janet. My buddy and I dated both of them. Kay Lani was the first girl I ever kissed. She was gorgeous, even at 16. I instantly fell in love. She moved back to Michigan. We wrote a few times, but she went on to bigger and better things. I always cherish those few weeks I spent with her. She is a really a special lady
