In your Nov. 8 issue you alluded to the alternate reality of Rick Dancer defeating Kate Brown for secretary of state, making him now, in an alternate reality, Oregon’s governor (“Best of Eugene”).
By some weird coincidence I happen to have worked at two Eugene establishments where Dancer graced us with his presence for one of his programs.
In both instances he demonstrated a deep love for his personal image as well as the sound of his own voice, while on the other hand offering pedantic, condescending lectures to anyone who made the mistake of talking to him.
The duty of governor is to serve the people. From my personal experience with this individual, the only one he seems to serve is himself.
Also, he doesn’t tip.
I’ll stick with this reality and Kate Brown, thank you very much.

Help keep truly independent
local news alive!
As the year wraps up, we’re reminded — again — that independent local news doesn’t just magically appear. It exists because this community insists on having a watchdog, a megaphone and occasionally a thorn in someone’s side.
Over the past two years, you helped us regroup and get back to doing what we do best: reporting with heart, backbone, and zero corporate nonsense.
If you want to keep Eugene Weekly free and fearless… this is the moment.
