Lavatory Lou may be a small 3rd party candidate in this coming election, but signs are popping up daily that people are taking notice of our very own vigilante candidate.
For instance in this JibJab video Lavatory Lou appears towards the end of the video. A sign that folks are starting to take notice of his campaign. And by the likes of what they do to ole Loo Lou, it might indicate that he is getting under the skin of some folks. Apparently, there just isn't room for a honest candidate like Lavatory Lou in this two party system.

Sometimes things can take you by surprise, but this time we were really taken by surprise.
Apparently a campaign has started on the web to elect BananaForce's very own Lavatory Lou as the next president of the United States of America.
It turns out a number of people have really started to get into this. I guess the current lot of candidates aren't offering everything the public wants.
We are a little giddy and honored that folks have taken such a liking to our beloved staff member.
I don't know how far this will go, but this could be an interesting month.
This grass roots effort has even picked up enough speed that news 3 did a piece on it.
Make comment in iTunes about the Granite State Geocachers Community Podcast and be entered into the drawing for a Cache-A-Maniacs Geocoin. Listen to the Granite State Geocachers Community Podcast episode 24 for more details.
