Since this has been a special week for me, I decided to have a little fun this Halloween! I'm sure a lot of people are curious as to what their elected leaders could be comparable to if they had to wear a costume. Roll your mouse arrow over the pictures to see who it represents!

Mayor Taylor is a great singer, just like Barry Manilow. He sings regularly and does annual singing events for our senior citizens around Christmas. Maybe this year Taylor will honor us by singing Copacabana.

Steve Taylor is truly The Punisher. He knocked Peko Pete off the Franklin aldermanic map and had many Franklin nonprofits feel the wrath of no fee waivers for 2 weeks. Tax dollars better watch out - - because they're next!

The ultimate (wannabe?) fiscal conservative: Tim Solomon. It's fitting to see him want to be Franklin's Henry Paulson.

C'mon. How is Kristen Wilhelm NOT Wonder Woman? Dubbed in the past as a "hyper-enviro" and thus a "liberal" by those who wanted to smear her, she dazzled 3rd District voters this past April to knock off Al Hammelman and thus putting her in charge of the district. KA-POW!

Since I'm a Trekkie, this was the only thing I could relate to with Lyle Sohns. Chief Engineer Miles O'Brien of Deep Space Nine fits Sohns perfectly. Hey - - Lyle should take this as a compliment...I'm a huge fan of Chief O'Brien!

Franklin's very own Bob the Builder, Ken Skowronski. Where would this community be without Ken and his influence on Franklin politics for many years? KS Remodelers is still running to this day, and Ken is still busy hammering away at projects.

You might be asking, "Where the heck is Steve Olson!?" Well, unfortunately this was all Olson wanted to be or needed to be (you decide):

It looks like Olson is simply Franklin's "hot commodity" and doesn't need a costume. You see, people should want to be like him! Bummer.
Lastly, for those who want to know my "gig," here it is:
Have a safe Halloween!!!!!
