Dylan was incomprehensibly drunk, and Lennon was typically smug. I'm pretty sure that Dylan actually mumbled these same words, to which Lennon tittered and then said something really droll.1970s Abraham Lincolnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02252992063572498718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35825016.post-5282008245423516962007-10-23T17:57:00.000-04:002007-10-23T17:57:00.000-04:00One more thing,Red theme?

Frankly, just having even a simple site puts you ahead of most candidates.

In fact ironically I don't really care for politics, I'm running because I'm sick of what I see going on, and I feel like someone needs to step up to the plate. I'll always give it to you straight. However, I'll always be considerate for the other councilors. I know that may sound corny, but it's the truth. Oh yea I just turned 13, sorry to have to correct you on that, but i'm proud to be a teenager finally.<BR/><BR/>While I'm writing, Unicow, I'm looking forward to seeing what you say about my site, the anticipation is killing me. I already know a few things on what you would say, but it sounds funnier coming from you. Yea I know it's weird that I'm waiting for someone to criticize me, but honestly it's funny shit.<BR/><BR/>Oh yea if anyone is interested in what happened at the downtown forum on Saturday, go to fitchburg's voice blog, i wrote a little something on it.Shaun C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16461606152160429072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35825016.post-2750936173998097362007-10-22T18:04:00.000-04:002007-10-22T18:04:00.000-04:00Why don't more elected officials utilize something...<I>Why don't more elected officials utilize something like that?</I><BR/><BR/>If you've ever been to a city council meeting, you'll know that nearly half of the councilors are functionally illiterate. That's why each councilor is furnished with a helpful set of self-inking stamps. The one with the smiley face stamps a big "OK!" in green. The one with the frowny-face stamps a big "NO!" in red. The stamp with the question mark icon means, "Please have Robert Pontbriand explain this to me later" [this is reserved for the mayor] and the stamp with the dollar sign icon is only distributed to councilors who have real estate and other business interests in the city. I'm not entirely sure what that one means.<BR/><BR/>The few candidates and councilors who do know how to read are largely bereft of ideas, which makes talking and writing about ideas all but impossible. I'm hopeful that future councilors will be less embarrassingly stupid and more technologically savvy, but I don't really hold out hope that we'll ever see anything beyond campaign rhetoric in a politician's blog. <BR/><BR/>The only candidate I've encountered among the current group who seems likely to actually say what's on his mind is Shaun Cormier. I don't know if that's because he's twelve years old, or if he's just naturally immune to political affectation. Either way, I trust him more that any of the other current or would-be councilors who have had the misfortune of stumbling into me during this election cycle.1970s Abraham Lincolnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02252992063572498718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35825016.post-86656307175769418522007-10-22T15:08:00.000-04:002007-10-22T15:08:00.000-04:00I like that blog idea.

I'm not sure why his name comes up on it but I'll ask him. <BR/><BR/>I wanted to put some kind of site together but keep it simple. The blog page is something that I had to have! I enjoy reading them so much, that I wanted to control my own! I would like to keep the blog active to create a better way for constitutants to see what's going on and to share their thoughts. I'm sure that I may need to include moderation if elected.<BR/><BR/>I plan on posting something at least once a week. Topics will be mostly based around activities in the city but you can count on a few posts regarding our local teams and anything else that I feel like sharing. <BR/><BR/>Basically I'm saying that I think blogs are fun! I'm sure that you agree.stahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01261623287590362549noreply@blogger.com
