He ran for office in Allston. He used to be the waiter at a really good place to get breakfast in Brookline. He turned up on channel 5, the other day behind Grace Ross.

Spotted DRIVING A CAR INTO HARVARD SQUARE! Me 'n Jess used to call him "Issues Man," because he always used to accost her and other unsuspecting people on the 66 and the 86 (he ignored me). I hated him. I hated him because he would hand someone a flyer, pontificate for about 20 minutes loudly to everyone on the bus, and then take the flyer back. Each time was a different issue. Most of the time I agreed with his points, and was trying to do something about it, but thought that his methods were pompous and detrimental to any cause he was promoting. He just used the issues as an excuse to be a total and utter preacher asshole. He was just as bad as the mormons, but at least they were quiet and actually listened to people before they preached. And I hated him even more when I found out that he hardly ever took public transportation. He fucking drove to all of the places he went to try and self-righteously preach. Hypocrite.

He seems like a crazy person that got into politics. I like that. Crazy people accost poeple on the train and wear outfits like this guy. It blew my mind to see him as the poster boy for the green party, standing behing Ross (Grace). Speaking with him at the deli also stoked my interest. I don't usually get a chance to talk to politicians.

The secret service guys are usually more interesting than the politicians...or their staff.

Dare I say the Green Party is the only party that would take him, not that they take him seriously...

Holla!

If they DO take him, I can't take the Green Rainbow party seriously, although I really like Grace Ross.

Dan "the bagel man" is no joke. I take him as serious as a heart attack. It is sad but I don't take people that look like two steps away from being homeless or insane (grace ross) seriously.

The Bagel Man is at least three steps from being homeless.
