It’s My 2 Cents: Gookin Has A Pretty Good Yard Sign

I must admit that former Huckleberries Online antagonist Dan Gookin has pretty good yard signs for his City Council election campaign. They mimic the design of the computers-for-dummies books that he has authored -- yellow, black and white. My neighbor across the street has one in his front yard, along with one for Jim Brannon. I, of course, wouldn't vote for Gookin, if he was running unopposed. I simply think that his agenda to dismantle our progressive urban renewal district is wrong-headed. However, I'm tempted to give him two thumbs up for the best yard signs for the 2007 Coeur d'Alene City Council elections.

Question: Have you seen a better yard sign than Dan Gookin's?
