Okay, here's a picture of the standee: [link] I just keep thinking that sign he's holding is just BEGGING to be vandalized.
Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

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'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.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I just saw the hapless GOP gubernatorial candidate's latest grab for attention (his first involved the former banker splitting logs with an axe while wearing flannel, and also this was related to his pet issue, something he called CRAZY TRAIN) -- a recreation of a CHILD DROWNING that HE PERSONALLY SAVES. This is a commercial about teacher tenure.
I came across this guy a bit in the context of my job. I'm hoping he's failed upward about as far as he can go. Because this ad HAS to backfire on him, right?

Also bon baby finally fell asleep just now after 30 minutes of banging his teething keys across the bars of the crib. I half expect him to burst into "Attica! Attica!"

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I heard a radio ad that made me actually consider voting for the guy. It started with his wife saying "let me tell you about this wonderful guy," and I was expecting it to be the usual Utah local thing about what a good provider he is and all that. Then she talked about how he quit work for two years to take care of the kids while she finished studying to be a pediatrician. And he talked about how it was a hardship but he loved spending that much time with his kids and how it made their family stronger. A man taking off work for his wife's career is unheard of in Utah! And especially to be making a point of it! Fortunately he's a Democrat so I don't have to feel too bad about voting for him.
