12 Early Bexley Candidate Observations:
1. The 2500th block of Brentwood is handsomely represented in the council race. Congrats, 2500th block of Brentwood: the proud yet humble cradle of Bexley council members since 1908. (Others receiving votes: Texas Tech, South Stanwood, Northwestern, UCLA, Clemson.)
2. Every candidate listed resides in the 43209 zip code, appears to be an Ohio resident, is left-handed and was born in Des Moines and/or Bettendorf, Iowa.
3. Masser. Morison. McClelland. All beaten to the edgy “M” slogan by Minckler. But Minckler was beaten to the edgy “M” slogan by Cameron Mitchell by several years. Compute that one, Billy!
4. Hanz (of Wasserburger fame) is a mere three letters from being a palindrome. And but one ill-placed "z" from actually being spelled correctly.
5. Grey’s Anatomy is a tad overrated. Desperate Housewives is a lot overrated. The Golden Girls? Don't even go there, girlfriend.
6. Cal-Irvine is a college in California. Travis Irvine lives on College Avenue in Ohio. Coincidence? Not buying it.
7. The Rusty Bucket. Neither rusty nor a bucket. Discuss.
8. Gene, Gene actually was, at one time in the 1970s, a dancing machine.
9. Matt Lampke follows an in-your face, one syllable first name with a powerpack, ‘didn't see that one coming,’ two syllable last name. Touché, fellow Mayoral rivals. Touché.
10. Back in 5th grade, I branded William J. Harvey with the cruel yet unique nickname that has haunted him his entire life: Bill. Nice to see you again, BILL.
11. Robyn Jones starred as Wonder Woman for seven weeks in the 1979 off-Broadway musical of the same name: Robyn Jones.
12. Hey Jed. Actually, I have nothing in particular to say about Jed right now. I just like the name.
