ok

To be honest, I was going completely off on another tangent to distract you from the unprofessionalism of that joke. >_> And I meant I was the one running around downtown with a camera (''we've went around talking to random people... etc''). I was hoping to steer the conversation towards something else, but I'm not very good at that.

im old..I'm going to bed now

but thanks for the entertainment lil one.Not to be rude, but you can't even save yourself from talking to a drunk. I am not easily ''distracted''. Thank goodness I took your bait and not others on this board.
Your big words are commical and as a true politition, you talk out of both sides of your mouth.
Like I said, I am going to bed now....you should do the same. You're cute. You make me chuckle.

Ryan

Ryan,
Glad to meet you. Interesting that you would present yourself on this site. I think that it's commendable, and, financially smart! (Free advertising). Don't get depressed by DF, he's being hard on you, on purpose. Our present Mayor is a good person. But, the Mayor in this town, by law, has limited powers. I hope that you would have the time to attend all of the functions (with school and all), that is expected of our Mayor. You also gotta know, that the political system in a small town like ours, is kind of a ''good old boys club'', and the Department Heads run the City, and not the Mayor and/or Council. Constructive change is always good, and, it's probably time for a change. Thanks for having the guts (some might say stupidity) to tackle this. Best of luck in your pursuit, see you at the polls. By the by, be sure to tell us what you stand for, and, what you want/think you can do, at City Hall.

thanks

Thank you Tom. I have been to several council meetings, and I've spoken with city (non-government) leaders to learn how the city really operates. I plan to spend just as much, if not more, time representing the city as the current Mayor.

As for what I believe in, I replied to the question ''Ryan Kopf?'' with most of that. Thanks!
