Aww thanks Newbie. Hehe. Looks like someone outbid you. I was a little worried that it was mean of me to do this but I didn't say anything bad about Dar.
Well that's OK, I just didn't want to see you spend money out of pocket to give this to someone. I'll let my losing bid stand, as it's not really worth more than a dollar to me. I don't think it's mean at all to sell this. You're the owner of it and it was freely given to you. It's a piece of history, albeit an exceedingly minor one. I once had a great political souvenir. Before the 1976 Quebec election, Laurier LaPierre conducted interviews with the party leaders (except Bourassa) in studio with a live audience that I was part of. Needless to say, René Lévesque smoked all through his interview and to my surprise and delight, he left behind the package, which had a couple of cigarettes left in it. There was no ebay in those days though. I eventually smoked them one night when I was really desperate!

Check this out, Signe! quote:
Forget regular radio show freebies of pizza and movie passes. The hottest ticket in town these days is Dar-themed bumper stickers.The trend started Wednesday, when a local radio jockey offered up the "Bin Dar Dun Dar!" and "I took Dar to Vegas!" souvenirs on his afternoon show to make light of Lethbridge Ald. Darlene Heatherington's ongoing public mischief trial that is making headlines from coast to coast.

I've been kinda keeping an eye on this story from the start. Sometimes I'll follow stories to see how my "gut" feeling at the start matches up with the facts when they come out.I'm thinking that Heatherington is/has gone through some kind of mid life crisis, and if, as it seems to me now, she mislead police she should face that music. But to have what really isn't that newsworthy a happening played out across the nation seems unfair to me, and in reading about her I feel like I might as well be stealing her therapist's notes and reading them, or looking through her windows with binoculars. It seems like an invasion of privacy. I hope none of my worst moments become the news tittering of a slow news week.

Maybe she likes it. If not, all she ever had to do to keep her dignity intact was to tell the truth. The police put a camera on her front door and a hidden camera on her back door. When she claimed that a new stalker note had been left on her back door the police informed her that they had been keeping that door under surveillance too. In other words, they knew she was lying. She panicked and changed her story ("Ooops! It was my car windshield... I always confuse that with the back door!") but I think that would have been a perfect time for her to realize that her lies are transparent. She could have fessed up anytime and saved herself the grief and the community the money. Since she insists on insulting her constituency's intelligence, I can hardly blame them for wanting to pelt her with every tawdry, tacky detail of her lie.

And rightfully so! Remember where she is from. Her "constituency" consists of those awful alburdans. As I recall, all of them are gun-toting rednecks who want to shoot every member of a visible minority and treat women like property. Just typical of them to elect a weirdo like her. I betcha all of them would do just the same if they had some kind of public office!
