I see the new episode of ‘Ask the Mayor’ has a new rockin’ intro . . . for a new rockin’ mayor.
Some quotables from His Man Mike during the episode (paraphrasing);
“I just click my heels or snap my fingers and a pot of gold appears for the good people of Sioux Falls, it’s like a dream come true.”
“If you don’t mow your grass, scoop your snow, get rid of your junky cars, wipe your ass or clean behind your ears you won’t like me as a mayor. You need to be a good neighbor or code enforcement will be cracking down on you, and your children and your children’s children.”
“I will be one of the most fiscally conservative mayors this city has seen in a long time, and at the same time you will see monkeys flying from my ass.”
“Would a downtown Events Center be good for Sioux Falls? Sure. But it won’t pass voters. Because instead of trying to educate voters on the best location we would rather just spend a bunch more of the taxpayer’s dollars on another plan. We hope to keep doing this, I don’t know, maybe 19 or 20 times. Because who cares about funding the place? At this pace we will probably see a new events center built by 2056.”
And of course, a pre-Jazzfest quotable;
“It’s so great to see thousands of people show up to an event and thank me for being their mayor, hey, and the FREE music ain’t bad either.”
