I'm Billy Blades. You're Billy Blades.
Hello. Billy Blades here. I'm back. Actually, I never went anywhere. I had simply slipped into a deep, deep sleep waiting around for Ron Littlefield to do anything. But since his management style so closely resembles doing nothing at all, I just lost a few weeks or months there. I'd stared into the nothingness for too long and it took me.
But the prospect of the coming mayoral election has woken me up and I am confident that Ron Littlefield--the man known far and wide as the Worst Mayor Ever--will indeed be challenged by someone with energy and integrity. I am, as the song says, holding out for a hero.
The problem is, what role should Billy Blades and all the staffers at WME play in the election? We certainly can't work on behalf of any of the legit contenders--Ron would just use us to discredit them.
No, we won't be advocating for anyone. We, as per our prime directive, will be working the other side of the equation. It's what we do.
So the art department and the editorial department here at Ron Littlefield: Worst Mayor Ever have come together and started thinking about how to address the issue at hand. The issue of ridding Chattanooga of the creative energy-sucking, civic momentum-killing, vortex of directionless slack that is Ron Littlefield. Being Americans of a certain age, we've come up with the only logical answer--a t-shirt.
It's out with the old swag and in with the new. The WME store is now featuring the first of our new line of shirts. The front of the shirt addresses something that comes up in emails that we receive here at WME all the time: Who is Billy Blades?
Who indeed. Well, I'm a concerned Chattanoogan who wants good things for this city and wants honest people in leadership positions. If that's you, you're me. So why not declare your solidarity with the resistence in cotton! Be among the first to be seen at NightFall wearing the new 'Hello, My Name Is Billy Blades' shirt. They're sure to be all the rage in the River City as the Mayoral Campaign heats up. The back has a message that I think we can all agree with. Well, all except incumbent do-nothing politicians.
Politicians are like diapers. They both need changing regularly and for the same reason.
Time to change that dirty nappy folks.
BTW. We don't make any money on any swag from the WME store. We've priced it as low as Cafe Press will allow. It's about the message, not the money for us.
See you on the hustings.
