Humor or not, might these loveable animals make more honest administrators?

A whale of a story. Loved it. Made me smile during what had otherwise been a dog day afternoon.

Any one of these animals would do a better job than the recent mayors of Los Angeles!

A delightful place! Have passed through many times and am looking forward to passing through again tomorrow. I guess we won't be seeing the mayor.

Politicians who allow people to die from lack of help in blue states are the real Sicko’s. When you look at severity and the fact that it is avoidable. The liberals Grace: a locking parking garage at work and gated Community at home. I’ve seen distressed people on streets punching themselves in the face on a bright sunny Sunday morning in Beaverton OR. I’ve seen people on heroin screaming at 3 am while delivering ⛽️ in Portland. Two people’s throats sliced open on Max train and died. Killer was tormented by the Liberal machine for years before he snapped. The sickness called Evil runs deep in our society’s currently. Only real antidote is to open your heart to our Lord and savior. Tech Evil is nothing like anything we have ever experienced. So get your leg strapped in to Jesus for a 3 legged trek through the fire to a better world. 🦵you don’t take a step without Jesus. Frame that in your mind. Better,yet go to picnic and duct tape your leg to a friend. Give it a try. And join a Church in Jesus name. 🙏🏼💙

Wondering how Lucky will attend all the required events - stand outside event venue front doors - poke head through city council chamber window? What about the mayoral chair? Thanks for the surprising and hilarious story.

I’m amazed at the posts from people who are annoyed the article didn’t supply them with their daily dose of hand-wringing, hair-on-fire, and if the other side wins drama. How about you allow the rest of us with a more balanced life to have a chuckle? Please don't let your subscriptions lapse, just don't post. Debbie Downers make me sad.

I kept waiting for a pun on mayor/mare (here in the midwest at least, they are homonyms) -- but it never came.

I feel your pain. It also took everything in me not to make a John Mulaney "There's a horse in the hospital" reference.
