Lots of stuff I couldn’t fit in on Friday … like we should run John Mayer for public office. I’m just trying to figure out what office. Mayer for Mayor sorta has a nice ring, but after reading John’s new take in Rolling Stone, one thing’s clear … he’s a master baiter.

Two slots are available on the Democratic side this cycle, and there could be a few more twists before the Democratic Town Committee meets Wednesday night to endorse candidates for BOE.

A Little Spring Cleaning
March 20th, 2009 · 25 Comments · News and Events
Throw open the windows, pull out your drawers, air out that closet. Spring is here so I’m wondering (this can be dangerous) how would you clean house? Take a powerwash to Chris Dodd and call it even? Make public financing of local elections voluntary? Or maybe mandatory? Rip up all downtown streets and finally begin [...]

Jewels, Jangling And Justice
February 9th, 2009 · 28 Comments · Cops, Media, News and Events
I’ve decided when I’m on my deathbed (other than my wife, of course) I want Jewel to sing me a lullaby. She could make nicotine mellow. I saw the singer/songwriter’s intimate performance at the Klein Sunday night. Great stuff, jammed hall. She shared stories about playing biker bars in her native Alaska, living out of [...]

Democratic Town Chairman Mario Testa set his restaurant on fire to give predecessor John Stafstrom an arson case. City Councilman Bob Troll Walsh brewed a cup of hot chocolate (with a [...]

John Mayer’s Labor Day Puke Session, Plus: Ice Lady
August 31st, 2008 · 34 Comments · Education, Media, National Politics, News and Events
Hey, what’s up for the next couple of days? Can you believe September’s here? I’m still fighting woodpeckers, bats, wasps and rodents, although my cat Stinky’s pretty good at mauling mice. Speaking of shrews (okay, I know that’s a bit much) but John McCain’s selection of the ice lady from Alaska reminds me of the golfer [...]

Spread the word, the Downtown Bridgeport music scene is heating up. The Bijou Theater, Downtown Cabaret, Two Boots, Klein Memorial, Webster Bank Arena and so much more.
