I resign my candidacy for office

Ever since I decided to run for office my friends and family have been advising me not to.  After my latest post, everyone pretty much jumped on me telling me that I don’t have a chance.  After sitting back for a few days thinking about it I came up with two options: do what they say or try to prove them wrong.  I finally realized that these were my friend, people who at least slightly care about me.  So, I have decided to follow their advise and not run.  Some day in the future I might think about doing it again, but now I’m focusing on a new idea, a new direction for my future.  I’ve decided to become rich and famous.

Okay, I know that you are all saying that it’s not that easy.  You just don’t decide to be rich and famous.  I know.  But I have a plan.  I am currently in discussion with a few close friends who are willing to listen to the details.  We’re crunching the numbers right now and writing up a real plan, but soon (probably in February) we’ll create our very own television show, which we will post here on this site.  Right now our premise is a small group of ordinary, average people go around investigating various mysterious and/or paranormal events and sort the facts from the myths so that the viewers can know what really happened.  On our agenda so far, we have ghosts, UFOs, the Bible, the Flannan Isle Lighthouse, the Newport Tower, and a few other things.  We have an outline for our pilot episode and just need to come up with a couple hundred dollars.  I’ll be doing some overtime at my work later this month and put that money towards the project.  If anyone else what’s to chip in, I have the tip jar below.

    I think you should tell the rest of the story. I don’t know about others, but I didn’t advise you to give up on running, but to learn a bit about what is involved first, but working for a campaign this year, then look ahead to the next election.

    Regarding your next project, seems like the travel expenses alone would run more than a couple hundred dollars. Not to say that I might not be willing to donate a couple bucks, but I think I’d like a few more details.
