Mark Naymik has a Sense of Humor?
The PD’s resident melonhead Mark Naymik is back, with a funny spoof of Ohio politics. It isn’t quite up to quality of the The Onion or Scrappleface, but for the PD it is hilarious. And the spoof on Jim Petro had me laughing soda out of my nose.
Instead of Connie Schultz’s or Regina Brett’s columns, I hope to see more published from Naymik and PD that is intentionally funny.

Ted,
How’s it going? Heavy lies the head, doesn’t it?
I am writing because this Coughlin guy keeps saying that I have been working with the Democrats (try to contain your laughter - even the Beacon Journal wouldn’t buy it) - so I figured if I have done all this work for your team (try to read, not laugh, Ted), the least you could do would be endorse me for Republican Chairman against Kevin’s yet-unannounced Dark Horse. Right now, I think the only candidates are Kevin and his imaginary friend, Pete. Everyone else seems to be avoiding Kevin like the plague.
I hope you’ll be able to overlook the $346,000 I raised for Ken Blackwell, the $310,000 I raised for Betty Montgomery and the $103,000 I raised for Mary Taylor in 2006 and all the hundreds of thousands of dollars I have raised over the years for the house and senate caucuses (though I question that senate money more and more each day). However, you do have to admit, Mary Taylor is the most attractive statewide elected official you’ve seen in a while. (She lets me call her babe-licious; she slapped Kevin when he called her that.)
Anyway, this midget from the Falls is giving me fits. I wish he’d just grow up. I tried to have the Sheriff jail him. The Sheriff says he’s afraid Kevin will run for prison-president and he doesn’t need the aggravation. The Sheriff thinks Kevin would be more of a pain in Jail than out of Jail (hard to imagine). And there’s some nonsense about constitutional rights. I am not sure I understand that.
I even asked the Probate Judge to institutionalize him until after the 2008 primary. Again,there was some garbage about constitutional rights. More importantly, the director of the local psychiatric hospital said they already had three Napoleons and didn’t want a fourth. Oh well.
I guess I need to turn him into another Jimmy Petro. Don’t see much of that Jimmy Petro any more, do you? It might not take much work. Hell, two of Kevin’s six supporters include people who do more work for Democrats than Republicans. (Maybe I shouldn’t tell you that - You may want to consider endorsing him.)
I guess I could always call the County Engineer and see if they could build a bridge through his house. That would probably look too transparent.
Remember Ted, even if you raise tons of money for the little ingrates, give them facilities and staff, and even hire their friends, it doesn’t mean that they’ll be loyal. Anyways, enjoy the fall. Let me know how that VP thing goes for you.
