I rang one doorbell and heard someone on the other side of the front door. I think they were looking at me through their peephole when I heard a man yell “No solicitors!” without even opening the door. “I'm not a solicitor!” I sort of yelled back through the door. “I'm a politician!”
There was a pause.
I wondered if he had gone away, and then he yelled back, “That's even worse!”
“No Solicitors [1]”
I met Sean Tevis [2] years ago when he lived in South Florida through my friend Ken [3] at his house warming party. I found Sean to be a smart and witty person and so I've been following his blog [4] for a few years (although since he updates sporadically, I read his blog sporadically).
So it was rather surprising to stumble across his campaign site [5] for Kansas State Represenative, and he's blogging his campaign experiences [6], which I think is cool.
And he has a good sense of humor [7] about it.
