Same state, though. My current governor's a female and has been
happily married to the same guy fuhhhhevahhh. I believe they were
college sweethearts.....Our previous governor bugs the crap out of me,
so it's true that you win some and you lose some with these people.
After leaving his post as governor, I've run into him Downtown on many
occasions as we were fellow office neighbors for a number of years.
He frequently insists on getting into the elevator with only one or
two other people and clogging it all up with numerous pieces of large
luggage or camera and video equipment from business trips. Then a
little kid with a parent going to the dentist, a handicapped person
with a seeing eye dog or a senior citizen with a walker or a cane will
try to get in and he'll shut the door on them. He's *SUCH* a jerk that
way. Various relatives and friends were really turned off by this when
I informed them.
They were like....."Whaaaaat! How dare he! He's still supposed to be a
pillar of our community! How ridiculous! He walks around like his ____
doesn't stink and he's still at the Capitol! OMG what a creep!" His
wife, a former local newcaster constantly blocks the escalators while
standing around with her pregnant mommy friends and their umpteen
strollers at places like Barnes & Noble and Nordstrom, too. They're
like a little cluster of pidgeons and they'll keep right on talking
and will NOT move. Seriously, it's like they're deaf and cannot hear
the words "Excuse me". VERY ridiculous.
I've also been spit on by a former governor, too, but that was an
accident. He was giving a speech, I was in the front row, and he has
some kind of slight speech impediment thing going on where his mouth
is very crooked. The friend who was next to me had to hold their
breath and close their eyes not to laugh. I mean it was just *so*
unplanned and strange. On my arm, not my face, luckily. It was really
embarassing, though, and he immediately turned to an easel and wrote a
diagram to try to break our gaze, LOL!!! People still tease me all of
these years later about that incident. "You must have really pissed
off the Governor...Didn't you vote that year?" ;-) I guess I just
have bad luck with politicians, eh? ;-)
At any rate, though, sorry you missed part of your show. That can
sometimes be frustrating. Sorry about your Gov. letting you guys down.
At least now you know that you're not the only state where the Gov. is
or has been a complete waste, though. "Elevator clogger" Governor was
also a city planner for a number of years. An entire shopping mall was
erected too close to the monorail because of him and everything had to
be revamped. When he went to the capitol I said "Great, now he can
screw up THEIR Downtown like he screwed up ours. Good riddance..."
