On Saturday, Pauline and I did the PDK Walk for Education. PDK is a professional organization that Pauline is part of, and this walk was to raise awareness and money for local and non-profit educational organizations. Anyways, we were milling around waiting for things to start when someone dressed in a suit walked up from nowhere. I vaguely thought that he looked like David Miller (I recall the hair being more outlandish from the subway ads), and it turns out it was! Cool, can you tell it was election time?

Anyways, everyone was surprised so we gathered around, chatted, and had some photo-ops. That’s me with Mayor David Miller, which Pauline egged me on to have taken. We continued with the walk which was at Queen’s Park, and Mayor Miller accompanied us for the first lap. After he left, we continued for another four laps before we were done. On the last lap, someone in our group stopped or was stopped by a CTV news reporter, and they went with us back to our staging area. They did some interviews for a piece they were working on about cheating in the school system, although only one person made it in. Pauline also apparently made it onto TV with a brief clip, but the video is transient so I won’t link it. The only thing I did was to loudly drop a wooden pole in the middle of the interview which also may have made it into the clip. Oops.
