Just a reminder, in case you’d forgotten, that when Jim Schutze isn’t lazily floating conspiracy theories — as Daniel put it in our comments section: “I’m not saying 3, I’m just saying 1 and 1, which sure makes it look like there’s another 1 out there somewhere, which I’m not saying there is and everybody tells me there isn’t, but if there were, and it sure seems like there might be, then that would then make 3, but I’m not saying 3″ — when he’s not doing that, he sometimes can come up with these flashes of insight that make you go, “Dude, yes. That was solid.” Or, you know, if you don’t talk like a frat boy, you maybe say something different.
Anyway, this week was one of those times.

Bravo, Schutze. That column has me wanting to help to identify and support qualified board candidates. Where do I sign up?
Allow me to go on record as a Schutze admirer. The richly talented son-of-a-gun is only able to float chains of inference if his editors allow it — and moreover, he’s usually quite entertaining even when he does so, provided he doesn’t let unseemly vitriol peek through. The guy’s a treasure, for Christ’s sake.
Another column calling for “anonymous someones” to volunteer their time to save things. Last time I looked Batman retired to his Batcave because Wayne Industries provided the mechanical engineering at several public schools. So guess it’s up to someone who has no ties to the district and who doesn’t mind not getting paid to get kicked in the teeth for every wrong call, go line up over there.
Keep calling – maybe Mr. Schutze will realize he need look no further than the mirror to find his perfect candidate.
So now you’re back on the Schutze bandwagon? Must be trying to hire him again.
