The demented author of the Schizophrenic Screeds that have made this site such a hit has, according to reliable sources, thrown his hat into the ring and is running for one of three open Stewartville school board seats. That, in and of itself, is not unusual. He ran for school board way back when I was news editor for the town's paper. He lost, as Dick Cheney would say, big time. This time, however, there's a major difference.
He's running unopposed.
Think about that. Try wrapping your mind around it. Let it run between your fingers and marvel at its very nature.
A certifiably insane, incoherent, paranoid schizophrenic is running, unopposed, for a school board seat. That means there's a very good chance he'll win.
Now, I had to report on school board meetings with that crackpot simply sitting in the audience, and he would take up 15+ minutes each meeting crowing the same disturbing nonsense I post weekly here. I mean, here it's at least harmless and amusing, but in person he was just fucking creepy.
And now he's poised to win a legitimately elected position. He could effectively sit on a board that is tasked with overseeing the betterment of our youth. He could play a role in shaping and molding the minds of countless students. Please join me in a collective shudder at the very thought.
I am soooooo glad I'm not news editor for that paper any more. The stress of school board meetings alone would ensure my untimely demise.
