Semi yet unrelated to thread. There was some guy DOYLE running for something in maine last fall. Was up there raging some shows in portland. Was on some party favors, stole a sign and was campaigning in the road. I don't understand how he didn't win. My campaign slogan was "O'DOYLE RULES" I would have voted for him
