Do you know who the seventy-fifth most powerful person(s) in Richmond is/are?
July 22, 2008
OMG IT IS ME AND JOHN MURDEN (according to Style Weekly’s Power List). This means one of two things:
- There is literally no one less powerful than us in town.
- We should run for mayor since Paul Goldman is only #74.

That’s why you guys had to share a spot – combined income.
Seriously, Kendra from Ipanema is clearly the most powerful person in town. Think about it.

did they have to get your permission to publish your power status?

So can those of us not making the list challenge those that did to battle and just gain points for our efforts? Or do we have to defeat people on our own power level first in order to level up?

I have never really challenged anyone else at this, but I am fairly confident that if I challenged you at being named Taylor, I would reign victorious as the Most Powerful Man to be named Taylor out of the two of us…not that that has any relevance to this competition whatsoever…but still.

I think the 50 most powerless people in Richmond would be a better read…

Really? I thought that the guys who own Banditos secretly controlled this town.
If I had any real power I would use it for good. Like making pies. Maybe I will run for mayor also. My slogan will be “Pie for the People.”

Bopst, the TD runs that list every day in their obituaries section. Or were you looking for an annual ranking?

Kendra, I would so vote twice for you — with or without pie.

There is this dude that always hangs out around Crossroads with long white hair and a really thin headband. He always tells me strange things about Rick Wakeman and occasionally claims to be Jesus. I am a little dissappointed that he did not make the list, as I suspect he may be a wizard.

[...] Late spring and summer saw quite a bit of lively conversation in our Op/Ed section. First we bickered over what kind of message Richmond sends, followed by some lovely banter on how Richmond defines powerful after Style Weekly declared one of our overlords to be half of the 75th most powerful person in Richmond.
