Perfect Mayor of Main Street
Every Disney picture tells a Disney story, and today we continue with our set of perfect park pics from Jeff Christiansen, who should defnitely count his fingers if he shook hands with the shady subject of his shot, Mayor Weaver of Main Street.
Long-time readers of the Disney Dispatch know that I have a serious problem with Mayor Weaver of Main Street, U.S.A., mostly because I intend to run for that office myself one day on a reform ticket.
I'm convinced that Mayor Weaver is venal, corrupt - in short, a scoundrel, aided and abetted by his henchman, Fire Chief Smokey Miller, who in today's picture you can see on the sidewalk playing an instrument (badly, I'm sure) with some of his fire hall cronies. Miller's the tubby one in the orange shirt.
The Mayor looks quite pleased with himself. He has likely just taken the last quarter from the girl standing behind him. She thinks it's part of the show. Honey, you're not getting that quarter back...
But I'll save my speeches for the campaign.
If you do run into Mayor Weaver on Main Street, U.S.A., he'll be happy to pose with you for a picture so that he can serenade you his campaign slogan: "When you pull the lever, vote for Weaver!"
(My slogan needs a bit of work: "If you are insane, vote for McLain!")
Many guests are surprised that Main Street has its share of characters - or more accurately, citizens. In addition to Mayor Weaver and Fire Chief Miller, you may run into Scoop Sanderson (reporter for the Main Street Gazette), Bea Starr, the Dapper Dans, and a few others.
As for Weaver... enjoy it while you can, buddy:
