Strangercrombie Day 4: Mike McGinn and Dow Constantine and Pete Holmes Can be Bought!

That's right.
For the proper price this holiday season you can purchase 45 minutes of city-shaking time with incoming mayor Mike McGinn. (During which time you shall get to drink with—and have your political t-shirt wardrobe helped by—hizzoner. What an honor!) Go ahead, spend the time trying to talk dirty to him on your cell phone if you want, but we recommend you harass him about the cracks in your sidewalk and your tardy trash pick-up and the number of chickens you're allowed to own and the laws for proper p-patch behavior that you want him to institute ASAP. When else are you going to have a chance like this? Currently selling for a very reasonable $300—get in there!
Or perhaps you have a few things to say to Dow Constantine, the new King County executive? Great. We got just what you need. Sit down for a cold one at the Five Point and regale Contantine with all of your fondest dog-catching wishes and Metro-improving dreams. (After high-fiving him for beating Susan Hutchison, of course.) Currently selling for $76—which is a steal for an audience with the most powerful county exec in the county.
Or. Or! Dance on the grave of Tom Carr, the outgoing city attorney, by having a stiff drink at Faire Gallery Cafe—the bar that Carr tried to deny a hard-liquor license—with incoming city attorney Pete Holmes. Don't wait! Internet tube operators are standing by! And now—now!—right now!—is your chance to listen to the new city attorney repeat his pledge not to prosecute small-time marijuana offenders while also seeing what he can do about all those parking tickets in your glove compartment. Currently selling for $51—a small price to pay to have the sweet voice of justice wash over your boozy ears.
