Suit 603, Deathstar

You also can fax them to: 215-2038 or email to: commission@knoxcounty.org
Also, before you send in your resume, make sure you meet the qualifications. You know, make sure you're a U.S. citizen, that you've lived in Tennessee for three years and lived in the county or district for at least one year, immediately preceding the appointment. Oh yeah, and the person selected cannot hold another office during the appointment period, which isn't going to be all that long.
Funny, the release that had all that information didn't say anything about how you probably shouldn't have a felony. Apparently, that's not a priority. To not have one, I mean.
The commission will interview the candidates on July 18 at 3:30 p.m. in the Main Assembly Room of the Deathstar. Officials will then appointment the new member during their regular meeting at July 25.
Huh.
ReplyDeleteYou know, I said I wouldn't RUN for office for 20 years back in '07.
I don't recall ever saying anything about being appointed. And something like this WOULD be the ideal - short period of time, largely a caretaker position, not too much pressure on a complete rookie with a love of civics that's almost as large as his mouth...
Huh, indeed. What if? ;-)
Oh, wait. Does one actually have to LIVE in District 6? Because I'm in 7.
ReplyDeleteYeah, you have to live in the district. Don't forget about the money (not that much but still) and the health care.
ReplyDeleteOh well.
ReplyDeleteCurses, foiled again.
ReplyDeleteThat's okay Paone, you can run against your hero Campfield next time.
ReplyDeleteYou need a new naming scheme at the paper. How about The Avenger Version 1.0? How do you get banned so much? Is it some kind of performance art?
he is just now saying.....winning!
ReplyDeletedoes pone remind anyone of someone???
winnnning!!!
Didn't Charlie Harper drive his car off a cliff? He got banned a lot too.
ReplyDeleteFirst anonymous comment, in order:
ReplyDelete* Nah. I don't mind keeping Campy right there where he is. He's actually LESS dangerous as an elected representative than he would be as a private citizen (where he would likely be quite an effective lobbyist).
* I'm up to 18, and no. The Shed knows why I do what I do, and frankly it's between me and them. Feel free to figure it out for yourself if you like, or ask someone up there.
(I comment under my real name, and that's the way it's going to stay. Cutesy screen names are so 20th century.)
Second anonymous comment:
ReplyDeleteIf I wanted to make a pile of cash on a comedy routine, it'd have been done by now. (Likely a routine centered on being married and broke. At least, that's a popular bit at the tables.)
And third anonymous comment:
ReplyDeleteIf I were to commit suicide, it'd be the "deepthroat the shotgun barrel" routine. Preferably a 10-gauge. And to be honest, if I weren't married it'd have been done a long time ago. I'm only here for my wife.
Didn't expect a serious answer to that, did you.
"Didn't Charlie Harper drive his car off a cliff?"
ReplyDeleteThat was not meant to be literal fella. Charlie Sheen destroyed his career with his off-screen behavior. So the people he wronged on the show wrote his Charlie Parker character drove off a cliff. Get it? It's a f*#&ing metaphor.
I'm outa here. Donila, you should remove these posts. TMI. Too creepy.
It's "Harper", not Parker. And I guess you weren't expecting a serious answer.
ReplyDeleteYou should get used to a lot more of them. I'm done with metaphors.
