Dio? For President?
April 18, 2008 7:03 pm UncategorizedThese days, when someone has a bumper sticker on his car, you notice, at least if you’re driving in Dallas where it’s extraordinarily uncouth to have a bumper sticker or drive a car older than ten years. And if Dio was a car, he’d be way too embarrassing for most Dallas Texans to drive, that’s all I’m saying.
So, I’m jamming to Tenacious D, and I stop at a red light, a lo and behold, there shines a shiny car with a black and white bumper sticker with three big bold letters: DIO. I look closely, and I can’t believe what I see. Someone is actually advocating that we vote for Ronnie James Dio as President of the United States of America. And then I thought, why not? Dude, he was awesome in The Pick of Destiny.
Then I thought, he’s German, right? How could he be President? But I looked it up, and he’s actually from New Hampshire, man, he could totally run.
So I looked further, but all I found was a truly lame YouTube video and a Web site with nothing on it. Ah well, one can dream.

Do we have to be Dallas Texans? Can’t we be Dallasonians?
Dio would be okay, but really, you gotta admit he’d get his butt waxed in any political runoff against Alice Cooper.
