What the hell is a standee?

I pulled my phone out if my pocket coming in from a cold, rainy walk and it flipped unprompted to a screen showing weather conditions in Puerto Vallarta. Not cool, iPhone, not cool.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Is that Mr. Monopoly??

That's who he looks like to me too, Jesse! Mr Moneybags!

What the hell is a standee?

Those life-size cardboard cutout dealies. I keep trying to find a picture of the one I'm talking about, but really, the 50-foot version wins everything.

Okay, here's a picture of the standee: [link] I just keep thinking that sign he's holding is just BEGGING to be vandalized.

That 50-foot wall painting isn't a campaign thing - it's been up for a couple of years at least. It's an ArtWorks project.

Oh god, the standee looks like some kind of terrifying Halloween thing.

That camera is rather unfortunately placed (almost said hung).

That's what I'm saying! I really did gasp when I drove past it the first time. I think the standee part of his campaign may have been poorly thought-out.

I did know that. But I can't help wondering if the campaign considered hanging a big "WRITE IN JIM TARBELL FOR COMMISSIONER" banner across it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

That is deeply alarming.
