STUART, Oct. 27 — Frank Mezzapelle has been endorsed by The Stuart News in his race for Stuart City Commission. A father/grandfather, community leader and former longtime president of Stuart Main Street (a 501 (c)3 not-for-profit orga­ni­za­tion ded­i­cated to improv­ing the appear­ance and eco­nomic sta­bil­ity of His­toric Down­town Stuart), Mezzapelle brings new meaning to the all-important transparency that today’s politicians atttempt to present to potential voters.

Mezzapelle’s run is not the only race he has participated in. His impressive time in the 12th Annual Dare to Go Bare 5K Run” — a nude 5K — in Lutz, FL in 2004 was 29 minutes, 39 seconds. Mezzapelle has entered several of these legally sanctioned races.

“endorsed by largest paper — Has ‘nothing to hide’”

Gee, um, I dunno whether that’s an endorsement or a criticism!

He may have nothing to hide but he is a flip-flopper.

His name means “half-skins” in Italian

Maybe "Quattropelle" would be more apt??

LOL!!!!

GOOD PUN!

The correct Italian word, however, is “prepuzio”.

Remember that for the next time anyone ticks you off.

Oh, and pronounce it, “pday-POOT-zee-oh”. The single “r” in Italian is a tongue-flap, like the British pronunciation of “very” as “vedy”.
