If elected I will clean up Muffler Row.

I will remove the shanty town that has sprung up behind the Lady Footlocker.

And:

I will stamp out the Blue Epidemic.

Sorry, Richard. I'm holding out for a candidate that will work Blue into the hot lunch program.

De-Newbridging Newbridge?  I'll pass.  However, if you could do something about the increasingly eccentric -- and largely inedible -- pancakes at the Pancake Promenade, I may reconsider.  I was there for brunch last Sunday, and the pancakes were filled with dice and peas.

CARPETBAGGER!

(That's the first time I've used that word since learning it in 1987.  Woo-hoo!)

If I win, I'll move to Newbridge. If Hillary can be a New Yorker, I can be a Newbridger.

No dice, I want Blue to be legalized The Wire "Hamsterdam" style, maybe near a certain lean-to or Lake Newbridge.

I'm actually considering running for borough president of Staten Island. Because the election is held in an "off" election year (no mayoral, gubernatorial, senatioral or presidential elections) voter turn out is very low and our current BP won with only 7,000 votes despite Staten Island's half a million person population. I'm pretty sure I can top that.

TL, I've been telling people that if I win, the Pharmacists will play a free concert in the Staten Island Yankees stadium. Let me know if you are okay with this.
The only Wire I care about is the one that recorded Pink Flag.

Uhhhhhhh...  Definitely will have to see "the offer" on that one.  When I have a little more time, I'll post here about the LAST time I played in Staten Island (it was about 17 years ago).

It's kind of frightening how plausible this plan sounds. I say go for it.

Maybe we could pool pour resources, start a third party.

TL can play newbridge commons too!

Is it Newbridger, or Newbridgian?
