| 13.8.13 10:40 | | Pretty sure it's an exaggeration to say EVERYBODY is talking about Kendrick's verse (counterargument: I just wrote this tweet) |

| 13.8.13 07:20 | | Ah, hotel coffee |
| 12.8.13 22:14 | | By the way, as much as I'd like to be #MPLSmayor it was so super cool today when @foursquare said I assumed mayorship of an Orlando 7-Eleven |
| 12.8.13 22:08 |  | 85 DAYS TO ELECTION DAY: Ten (!) more filings today, including all of the remaining "top tier" candidates. So that's...32? Hoo boy. If you were worried we weren't going to have Captain Jack Sparrow in the race...you may fear no more. I'm currently in a hotel room in Lark Mary, FL for some Symantec meetings taking place this week. This involved flying out of MSP to Orlando by way of Charlotte. WHILE I was in Charlotte, I got a call from Elections informing me that I would be listed on the ballot as "Libertarian" (this was not a surprise) and if I wanted it to instead read "Libertarian Party," I would need to come down and amend my filing (this was a LITTLE more of a surprise). I told them I would be nowhere near Minneapolis until after the deadline (tomorrow) and not to anticipate seeing me. Then, I thought about this. Why exactly would this be something I want to change? For the mayoral election, everyone has to declare "party or principle" and you get three words to do so. (I think three words was arbitrarily selected back in the day so that one could put "Democratic-Farmer-Labor," but I readily admit I haven't put a whole lot of research into that.) I put "Libertarian" because that's my party, although, yeah, it's a principle as well - well, I would have had to put an "-ism" at the end of it, right? ANYWAY...obviously, the DFL guys can't put "Party" at the end of theirs as they've used up their three words - I'm not even sure anybody's running as a declared Republican but I can't see THEM using "Party" either. So why would I? Well, I checked the other guy running, and sure enough, he DID declare "Libertarian Party" ...so that's probably driving somebody over in Elections nuts that there's two slightly different listings on their ballot. (On the other hand, I hope the guy who put "Democrat" is amending HIS filing to "Democratic" because that drives DEMOCRATS nuts. Just ask them!) (Oh, and there's also the "do we hyphenate or not" contingent - yes, you do, but I digress...even more than I already have, I mean.) SO. It didn't end there! After landing in Florida and while I was driving from the Orlando airport to my hotel, I received a SECOND call from Elections, telling me how I could still get my notarized affidavit amending my filing to the office in time, blah blah blah, and I told them that after thinking about it I was just fine with it the way I'd done it two weeks ago. It's kinda funny how much government interaction they've fed this libertarian today. ;-) This time tomorrow we'll know exactly what we're up against as the final day of filing closes and we see just how many folks have been cajoled into running (and they ARE being cajoled...I'll talk more about THAT in the weeks to come as well). |

| 12.8.13 21:26 | | Well, Harris hasn't been fired yet - tho' he failed to call for the bell...technically this segment didn't happen. (Or so we wished) #RAW |
| 12.8.13 19:59 | | What horrible timing for Vince to have to talk about a controversial finish and not have it be the previous match #RAW |
| 12.8.13 19:53 | | We'd like to wish WWE official Marc Harris all the best in his future endeavours #RAW |

| 12.8.13 10:04 | | Guys in B and C don't speak English...also tried to get away with sitting in A and B. No good deed goes unpunished! #CLTtoMCO |
| 12.8.13 10:03 | | Switched seats to keep a family together - good deed #2 or just common decency? Also, family from first segment is in front of me on this 1 |
| 12.8.13 09:50 | | Spotted this PSA paint job and barely got the shot @ Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) |
| 12.8.13 09:45 | | (By the way, DFL candidates never get asked to put "Party" on THEIR filings because they use up their 3 word limit spelling out the acronym) |
| 12.8.13 09:42 | | This has been a thrilling episode of "CRZ's between-flight #MPLSmayor banter" - we now return you to your regularly scheduled DFL candidates |
| 12.8.13 09:40 | | Maybe they'll call HIM and try to get him to amend HIS filing. (There's a joke about government and Libertarians in here somewhere) |
| 12.8.13 09:38 | | I see now...the other guy DID put "Libertarian Party" on his filing. That must bug somebody over in Elections that ours are "different" |
| 12.8.13 09:29 | | Told them I wouldn't be in MN until Thursday so I'd miss their deadline. Oh no, I'm stuck! Wonder why this didn't come up two weeks ago. |
| 12.8.13 09:26 | | Took a call from Elections in Charlotte airport; they were concerned I hadn't put "Party" on my declaration + did I want to amend in person? |

| 12.8.13 06:22 | | Two kids in D and E - good thing I wore the Kool-Aid Man shirt and don't look creepy at all |
| 12.8.13 06:20 | | Already did one good deed today so let's see if that good karma gets me through these two flights without too much drama |
| 12.8.13 05:33 | | Off to Heathrow (FL) for work - back Thursday (I hope). Sorry I'm missing the filing deadline and optional candidates' meeting, but I'll be all ready to start comparing/contrasting myself to the other candidates for mayor when I get back. No promises I'll check Facebook before then, though! — at MSP Airport. |
