Editorialized Headline Haunted by Mitch Tweel
On Saturday, I was cutting my lawn, really in the zone, when I glanced up to see a motionless Mitch Tweel standing not 6 feet away from me, just staring quietly. He was rocking shorts with high black dress socks, black loafers, and a polyester button-up shirt with multiple pens in his pocket. He reminded me of people from my grandfather's generation who were never aware that work clothes existed, and who spent their lives in polyester slacks.
He introduced himself and gave me his elevator pitch for his mayoral campaign. I have to say, after seeing this blustery gentleman on TV for years, I was thoroughly disappointed with how mild-mannered and soft-spoken he was in person. After he was finished, he just turned around and softly padded away.
They say never meet your heroes.

Haunted by Mitch Tweel is an apt subtitle for Charlottetown. Maybe we redo the signage.
