Citizen Dave: The Mifflin Street Block Party can be cool

Let?s start out with what should be an obvious truth. If there?s any trouble at this year?s Mifflin Street Block Party, it won?t be the fault of the UW Dean of Students or the mayor or the police. The fault will be with the perpetrators. Look, if it helps, I?ll take my share of the blame for last year?s mess. I?m not sure if the bad stuff would have happened if it hadn?t been for the transition between myself and the incoming mayor. Paul Soglin was legitimately focused on other more demanding issues and I was busy looking for more bubble wrap and packing boxes.
