Krist Novoselic's Running for Office
Our friend and columnist Krist Novoselic has announced that his intention to run for the Wahkiakum County clerk. He prefers "Grange Party." Anyone who's followed Krist's column knows he's been active with Grange for years. On the Grays River Grange blog, Krist wrote:
Krist Novoselic's column runs every Tuesday on the Daily Weekly.
"It could be worse - at least I'm not an interloper only out to usurp the good name of the Grange. I was elected Master of the Grays River Grange and am a committed member. I'm also doing this to beat anyone else with the same idea. However, if there were another Grange candidate in the race, it would be up to voters figure out who is their preferred Grange candidate - even though the Grange doesn't run candidates.
As a strong believer in private association, I oppose the way The State has implemented I-872 - the Grange sponsored Top Two Primary. My problem is not really with a top two runoff election. My issue is with the way candidates can appropriate the name of a private group."
Good luck, Krist.

Hey Krist,
Tom Casey here, I just wanted to wish you the best of luck with your campaign; and to say that I have no idea who this Sophia person is, and I for one never brought her to your house.

Dear Bill,Jeff, et ALL!
Mr. Tom Casey!
Seems like you are not the only person with this name in the world! :)
I meant Tom Casey PUD commissioner for Grays Harbor, and Granger.
We spent a great afternoon with Chris, his wife and mother at his ranch, mostly speaking about my artwork and film work.
And yes, I have a website and you are all welcome to it www.sophiasgalaxy.net & .com
I hope this clears things.
Sophia

This is sooo funny!
You are certainly not me - so who are you??? :):)
In Google there is ONLY ME! No homonims! (2 people with the same name)
A poor victim of the CIA?
Bla bla, get a life!
By the way, I don't know how legal it is to impersonate someone on the web - I'm sure it's not.
And thanks for the laugh, whoever you are!

This is Krist's house. I have never let Sophia von Wrangell inside of me.
She did try to enter me, but sensing that she was batshit insane I refused to open up. When she realized that she wasn't getting in she just stood on my porch yelling out her website URL incessantly.
