Harry Sidhu has been on the go lately, but the story of his peripatetic wanderings is damn-near keeping up with Harry himself.
Until he moved to the Calabria graffiti was just an abstraction...
Here’s a fun post from a blog called donpalabraz that puts a new spin on Hide-N-Seek Harry’s sortie into the flatlands, and his drive to establish street cred therein. And it’s from a uniquely Latino perspective: el Sidhu loco! We like it.
An FFFF shout out to donpalabraz ‘n them.

I think Nelson should do this to those murals down on Lemon.

The Register’s Orange Punch blog also did a post on Harry’s adventures today.

Everybody’s doin’ a brand new dance, now
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion
I know you’ll get to like it if you give it a chance, now
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion
My little baby sister can do it with ease
It’s easier to learn than your ABC’s
So come on, come on, and do the Loco-Motion with me
You got to swing your hips now
Come on, jump up, jump back
Oh, babe, I think you got the knack, whoa whoa
Now that you can do it, well let’s make a chain now
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion
A chugga-chugga motion like a railroad train now
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion
Do it nice and easy, now, and don’t lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul
Well, come on, come on, and do the Loco-Motion with me
Whoa whoa, move around the floor in a loco motion
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion
Do it holdin’ hands, if’n you get the notion
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion
There’s never been a dance that’s so easy to do
It even makes you happy when you’re feelin’ blue
So come on, come on, and do the Loco-Motion with me
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion
So come on, come on, and do the Loco-Motion with me
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion
So come on, come on, and do the Loco-Motion with me
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion
Come on, baby, do the Loco-Motion

chris — those murals are beautiful! and nelson’s loco ideas about them are just part of the reason he doesn’t deserve that 4th district seat either!

BTW – Gracias for enjoying the ‘el Sidhu loco’ tagline! haha

It was just kind of a joke Gabriel. Frankly, I’ve never really looked closely at those things. Shawn will be a kick ass supervisor though. Whether or not we have murals like that in OC isn’t on my radar in comparison to the asinine control that public employee unions have over our county. THAT is why we need Nelson.

This photo is the same misleading crap as the Galloway post below it. How stupid do they think people are to believe a guy is out painting in a shirt and tie? Are there any normal people running for office? Cant one of these hacks volunteer for real and show up in clothes suitable for actually working?
Is it just me that is tired of this bullshit?

I think he paid that girl in the pink shorts to trade places for a photo. Nobody goes to graffiti paintouts just to stand around, and she looks pissed anyway! LOL

HA HA! Yeah! What a photo op! I bet Sidhu thought rolling up his shirt sleeve was good enough. Hopeless, hopeless…

A question from the uninformed (me).
Why don’t election officials require proof of residency for a specified amount of time, say 1 or 2 years?
Hell, they do this if you’re a student at a public college or university. Otherwise, you pay out of state tuition.

I really hope they get exposed as the phonies they are. Lorri and Harry should just move around and run for every BOS seat. Next up is the Third where they really live. What do you wanna bet they both run for that in 2012?
Carpetbagger phonies.

Students have much more integrity than a guy like Sidhu Mr. Head.
#13 by gabriel san roman on February 19, 2010
that’s a really good question…it would seem reasonable…
