MANITOU SPRINGS, CO - The negative campaigning will not stop!

This time, Steve "ColoradoGuy" Garufi broke his policy of neutrality when he labeled Hair Consultant candidate Kansas Kelly as "full of excuses" and a "picture hog" because of her refusal to show her photos from the 2004 ColoradoGuy Festival that she attended.

"I just think that's wrong. I know Kelly took hundreds of pictures during the Festival, and every time I've asked her to post them (on the Friendship Board) she's full of excuses. Personally, she sounds like a picture hog to me." stated Steve.

According to Kansas Kelly, her main excuse has been that her photos are too large and she does not have the ability to reduce them to an appropriate size. Yet as they say, "the proof is in the excuses" for Kansas Kelly, because her camera, a Canon EOS Digital Rebel, cost her over $1,000.

"So Kelly can afford a $1,500 camera but can't afford a software program to crop and reduce pictures? Does she think we're that stupid?" exclaimed Steve.

"And then Kelly wants to create an official Hair Consultant communication forum. Well how about first utilizing the Photography Forum and stop being all talk and no action?!" added Steve.

Fellow candidate Ben "One With The Tao" Paulson (right photo) also shared his disappointment with Kelly's excuses and picture hogging: "It sure would be nice to see some extra photos of the festival ... If she has hundreds of them, it would not take too much time to post a few of the better ones. Come on Kelly, lets see those photos." wrote Ben, in the chat room.

Kansas Kelly is running for Hair Consultant in the upcoming election on April 13-16, which is a position created by Steve "ColoradoGuy" Garufi in 1998 so that he would have a leader, encourager and "go to person" as he worked towards growing his naturally curly hair really long.
