| 26.8.13 23:32 |  | Today I have managed to avoid leaving Syria comments to everyone posting a Miley Cyrus status update while ALSO avoiding leaving Miley Cyrus comments to everyone posting a Syrius status update. I say this because sometimes I have to let you know EXACTLY how lucky you are to know me AND, to the same extent, how lucky I am to know you. |

 | Speaking of things I didn't share with you earlier, last Tuesday was the hearing for [Green Party mayoral candidate] Doug Mann's request for a writ of mandamus compelling our city council to place a measure on the ballot letting the people of Minneapolis have a say on "our" portion of any new Vikings stadium. I was up early to take the proceedings in in person and so were several other candidates - along with reporters from, I think, all of the TV stations. Here's a link to Allen Costantini's report for KARE. I sat next to the WCCO reporter (new lady I didn't know) in the galley. I didn't think Mann's argument was going to fly, but there are already other folks talking about other legal tactics to stymie stadium efforts - and with the recent action against the Wilfs, it's a little more popular to speak out against this deal than it was back when it was railroaded through the state's AND city's legislative bodies. Boy, it was a lot of old white hippies there, though. Finally, I would be remiss if I didn't note that Captain Jack Sparrow really wanted me to have his card, but I gave him the brush-off. |

| 71 DAYS TO ELECTION DAY: Sorry for my "hiatus" - my day job, the State Fair and some very special guests at the house kept me away from Facebook (photos on Flickr and the personal Facebook page)...and since Facebook is about 92% of my "campaign," staying away from Facebook isn't the best thing for me to do between now and November. It's way too hot to do anything BUT be on Facebook for the rest of my "vacation," so expect me to get back into more of a routine very soon! In the mean time, here's a story from Don Samuels' press conference on how the mayor can eliminate crime in the city. I already left a comment on their website, which I repeated rhetorically on Twitter - and he has already responded to me! So...he's at least got some savvy people watching Twitter for his name. (Link to Star Tribune story: "Samuels says city should focus on six crime families") |

| Why hasn't Don Samuels already talked to those "six families?" (Why hasn't RT Rybak?) |
