Clearly, no: Showing up at our office on a scooter, his straggly beard blowing in the breeze, Styron had no problem catching our eye, or our ear when he dropped off a CD of campaign songs to go with his crackpot flier. But he was also carrying a serious grudge that he hadn't been included in Kenny Be's campaign cartoon that week. "Don't take this the wrong way," he said, "but what do I have to do to get your attention? Bring a gun?"
This round, Gerald, all you have to do is contact Michael Roberts, who is interviewing all the mayoral candidates.
In the meantime, I'm looking forward to the next mayoral debate. But leave the gun at home.
