We'll
Laugh... We'll Cry..
and We'll Owe it All to GREG
He hates his
family and publicly airs his personal attacks
against them on a web site.
He has been thrown out of almost every bar and
liqueur establishment in the Merrimack Valley.
He forces himself on candidates for office and
then is "shocked" that they do not
"kiss the
ground I walk on for giving them the honor of
having Gregg Hyatt working on their
campaign."
Yeah, it's tough to be Gregg. The whole world is
plotting against you and you can't even
buy friends who will listen to your obsessive
threats and delusions of importance.
What's an angry guy to do?
Well, you could call into radio programs and
verbally accost the chief of police in
your home town because he wont do anything about
the invisible man you see
running around your apartment.
Or you could just keep showing everyone your
"secret folder" to convince the
world (one person at a time) that you really
aren't crazy.
or, you could run for office.
Now that's the kind of fantasy reporters and
political junkies like myself only
dream about.
Just picture it, Gregg referring to himself in
third person telling voters they should
be so lucky "as to have a candidate like
Gregg Hyatt allow you to vote for him!"
And it's a good outlet for Gregg. He can use the
publicity surrounding his campaign
to personally attack everyone who has ever
frowned at him. (I would suggest he goes
alphabetically)
And if he wins (don't think for a minute that he
can't) he can start a nationwide search
for a more professional police chief, one who
will take this invisible man thing a little more
seriously.
Can you imagine the daily headlines in the
Tribune?
"Mayor Hyatt proposes law to stop Bar owners
from ejecting patrons"
"Mayor Hyatt Calls in FBI to find Invisible
man"
Every day would be like Christmas Morning when
the Tribune showed up at your doorstep!
Well, we can dream can't we? And it's not out of
the realm of possibility. Gregg Hyatt could
win if he just pumped literature into the
community about his platform and his ideas.
On that front he is a solid contender.
But Hyatt would have to suppress that megalomania
and lock himself in a vault until election
day if he wants to win a final election. Every
voter who is unlucky enough to have the
"Gregg Hyatt experience" is another
vote for someone else. And if he is foolish
enough to
show up at a debate (I am feverishly working to
put one together) he could cause spontaneous
combustion in the community when he graces us all
with the deep thoughts inside his head.
Oh, if campaign season were only longer. It just
doesn't seem fair that we only have a few
months to "experience Gregg" in a high
profile campaign.
But don't worry, we'll have debates, radio
interviews and I'm even thinking about releasing
a tape of "Gregg Hyatt's most insane phone
messages" from my telephone answering
machine.
(I play them for myself when I need cheering
up.)
Yeah, It's a dangerous place deep in the mind of
Gregg Hyatt and an even more dangerous
place if you are within ear shot of his
spontaneous outbursts ("clean up on aisle
3") while
trying to go about your daily life.
But if you are a voter in Methuen you have to put
all that aside.
Who cares if he is paranoid and delusional? Who
cares that he is desperate to relive his old
glory days when important people cared what he
thought about the world? Who cares that
he doesn't play well with others?
All the voters should care about is whether Gregg
Hyatt can do the job and do it in the most
entertaining way possible.
And I think he can!
A vote for Gregg is like a vote for free ice
cream.
Stay tuned!
