I couldn’t agree more with that statement. During his last hour long ‘Ask the Mayor’ they did a tour of his office, on one of the shelves was this book next to a couple drink tumblers. They never commented on the book.
But one of the more astonishing moments was when Reed asked Mike if there was any disappointments during his term, or things he didn’t get done. He said he could only think of one, but said he tried to fix it, and that was Public Transit. Really?!
I wasn’t expecting him to throw himself under the bus, but you couldn’t think of ANYTHING ELSE?! Nothing!?
While I could comment on a host of things in his final propaganda show, the one thing that sticks out is he never really mentions that being an elected official is really about SERVING the PUBLIC. You will notice it was all about HIM and GETTING THINGS DONE. I’m glad he will go back to ‘Being Fun Again’ for his daughter.
40 days left folks. 40 days!
Visiting presidential libraries and museums is not “weird,” but trying to decorate a square office as if it was an oval one might be…..
BAHAHAHAHA!
Have you ever heard his comment that the reason he doesn’t wear a coat outside when it is cold, only a suit coat is because JFK did the same thing.
And I thought I was cool emulating Jerry Seinfeld when people sneeze I say, “Your’e Sooooo Good Looking.”
maybe our next mayor will have fewer mental health issues
No I haven’t, but he doesn’t wear button-down shirts either; and I once read that JFK wouldn’t allow anyone to wear such a shirt in the West Wing….. 😉
JFK also hated hats too, so perhaps Rex is a secret admirer too. (That’s it, Rex…. Just use the JFK defense…There you go…..)
‘Listen and Learn’ evolved into ‘Let’s talk about me’.

NON GERMANE TOPIC
The Younkers store in Sioux Falls is closing. Once again, an other of my many 2018 predictions is coming true…. I hope I am wrong about the future sinkhole at Lake Lorraine, however….

Boy, I am glad they got the Louise Street update done before this news.
Younkers – A lot of us saw this one coming. Could have been a GREAT location for a joint city/county administration and customer service center. Hennepin County has one at Southdale in the Twin Cities. Very busy and very efficient use of the space and taxpayer dollars … rather than our $25m (plus interest) albatross with no parking and a porn shop next door!
Don’t let the door hit ya …

The rats are Jumping Ship before it sinks
Using available space for city administration!!! There’s already a brand new 3 story building that is more than necessary. Younkers could have been the indoor tennis we (the public) built privately for the Huethers.
