The postman rang twice

Our ballots for the primary election arrived in the mail yesterday, in a new color scheme that I hope will not confuse too many of my fellow old folks. And along with it, the mail carrier dropped off some timely election porn:

It's one of the bobbleheads on the Multnomah County commission, looking to re-up for a second four-year term. "More housing," front and center. Sure, more apartment bunkers; that's what will get the junkies off the streets.

But that face – it looks kinda familiar. I could have sworn I saw it just yesterday... Where was it? My short-term memory isn't what it once was...



Oh yeah, right. GONG!!!!


Time to break out the voters' pamphlet and see who the alternatives might be.... I see a guy named Derry Jackson there. Works for me. Hand me my pen.

  1. I appreciate your focused indifference. Cynical and sincere. You are a local treasure.

  2. I looked up his invention, the 'two hands pro,' which goes in a mitt, and keeps you from closing it, so you need two hands to control the ball. Pretty good thing, by the looks.

The platform used for this blog is awfully wonky when it comes to comments. It may work for you, it may not. It's a Google thing, and beyond my control. Apologies if you can't get through. You can email me a comment at jackbogsblog@comcast.net, and if it's appropriate, I can post it here for you.
