They Don't Call Him Honest Iago for Nothing
- While tooling around the outskirts of St. Paul this morning, I saw an "Iago for Mayor" sign. Another dadaist prank? An evil parrot? An evil Venetian courtier? None of the above. It's Ed Iago, running for the executive spot in West St. Paul. And while it seems like a good name for a one of those politicians who, trimm'd in forms and visages of duty, keep yet their hearts attending on themselves, people speak very highly of Ed, and I've had such a nice time in the Twin Cities that I'll wish him the best.

Iago from Aladdin was pretty P.I.M.P.

Why, there's no remedy; 'tis the curse of service,
Preferment goes by letter and affection,
And not by old gradation, where each second
Stood heir to the first. Now, sir, be judge yourself,
Whether I in any just term am affined
To love the Moor.

It's pronounced "eye-ago."
