There’s gotta be weird vibes in Harrisburg right now: New judge coming in on the Fumo trial with nothing even doing until October 20, and even besides that, there’s some election going on or something? Oh wow, that’s RIGHT! Larry Farnese! You remember Larry: Mows lawns, charms gays, may or may not be Fumo spawn. (And surely you remember the time we told everybody to get off the pipe with this Anne Dicker nonsense and throw votes Larry’s way, otherwise, we’d be talking about Johnny Doc right now, and believe us: Him, you’d remember.) Got endorsed by the Philadelphia Fraternal Order of Police, the Pennsylvania State Education Association, National Organization for Women, Sierra Club, AFSCME DC 47, and the Pennsylvania Conference of Teamsters? The new news on Larry is, well, there’s not much: Weirdly, Larry hasn’t even been mentioned in the Daily News since August, and well, what we wanna know is, why? There’s lots of appearances, including this Sunday at OutFest, but where’s the news? There’s just weeks until the election, and shouldn’t Larry be everywhere right now? Granted, he’s gonna squash the competition. (Fuck, who even is the competition? Oh right, Jack Morley. Looks like a barrell o’ laffs.) But God damn it’s quiet out there. So to the void we say: Hey, remember Larry Farnese?
