This sign bugs me.

Have you seen this particular campaign sign about town? It’s been puzzling me for weeks. In the quick glimpses I got whilst zooming past, I could never figure out what the heck that graphic was. Is it two scorpions fighting? Is it 3-D glasses?

Yesterday, on my cupcake walk, I was finally able to inspect one up close, and I THINK it’s boxing gloves.

I can’t decide now if it’s a good sign or a bad one. It definitely got my attention, if only to irritate me. Mr. Warren may himself be entirely un-irritating. A cursory Google tells me very little.

    I do believe I’ve heard that Mr. Warren is a boxer, or former boxer, or something…

    obviously this sign has been designed to be completely unreadable when glanced at through a speeding automobile.

    This Ronnie Allen guy knows somebody named Warren who will distribute beatings on command.

    I dislike so many things about this sign. “4″ instead of “for”–because what I want in a politician is someone who thinks like a texting teenager. Boxing gloves–because what I want in a politician is someone in favor of recreational violence. The way the font changes. The way it looks like “Ronnie Allen” is his name, and then I think, “And who’s Warren?” Worst of all: he’d probably be THRILLED that we’re discussing it.

    Well, here’s something he wouldn’t be thrilled about. I know Ronnie Warren. He is crazy. I mean really insane. With running for city council he wrote up his list of “achievements, work and community involvement.” I know for a fact that at least two of the items he listed as past positions were false. 1. Being a “Coordinator” for Associated Ministries. 2. Being on the Shelter review Board.
    This guy will attempt to “praise God!” every chance he can in a conversation and walk into unsuspecting agency training sessions (private) that he was never invited to. The guys a quack. And in these days of war and violence, do we really need to have this so called “man of integrity” FIGHT for us? I think not.

    jamie: Hi! Yes. I’m assuming that, now. Still! Confusing.

    RR: Ha! You’re funny.

    in-tacoma: You saw him at the farmer’s market in his boxing gear?!? Did you take a picture? Was it funny?

    Swistle: You’re totally right. The more I look at it, the more it bugs me. What is UP with all those fonts?

    DD Thompson: You make a good point. I don’t know anything about the guy. I should, I know.

    Speaking of the Farmers’ Market, he was back today and I’m assuming you saw this?? http://www.tacomaweekly.com/article/1098

    I’m just digging that they couldn’t choose which font they liked the best so they used all six. This sign is so bad on so many levels!
