[Globe and Mail, Dec 10th](http://www.globeandmail.com/servlet/ArticleNews/TPStory/LAC/20031210/PICT10/) > [@](#): > > As the first female mayor of the northern B.C. town of Houston, Sharon Smith was proud of her accomplishments. So was her husband. So proud that he snapped photos of Her Worship wearing the chain of office - and nothing else. > > Everything was fine until photos of a smiling Ms. Smith were allegedly copied from her home computer during a house party her kids threw, then circulated around the mill town of 4,300. The best part is that, while embarassed, she is unrepentant and pissed off at having her private property stolen. She seems to have the support of the town, which is pretty cool. Her kids, I would imagine (hope!), are mortified. This is truly the most entertaining front-page news I have heard in a long time. And really, for a mayor, she’s pretty hot. I’m sure glad it was her and not [shudder] Mel Lastman. Chin up, Mayor Smith ! Houston BC is lucky to have a mayor such as yourself ! ---

Ashamed to say I’ve looked a great many places for “the” picture. It’s hard to believe it isn’t all over the Internet. Still, I hate all those self-righteous “holier than thou” folks saying that she has demeaned the office of the mayor and should resign. I’d love to see someone dig up something _really_ embarassing about them !!! ---

This story was on NPR’s “All Things Condidered” today. They had a phone interview with, I believe, a former Houston, B.C. town councilman. He was advocating her resignation. Apparently, the photo was taken in the mayor’s office. ---

I gave up wondering why Larry Campbell (mayor of Vancouver BC) is never photographed w/o a hat on his head. I just hope it doesn’t have anything to do with this. At all. 😉 ---

I think the idea of her being asked to resign over this is silly. 🙂 ---

Check the pic in Casey1505’s post, Manduck. You _sure_ you wanna go there? 😃 And I agree Wakimika, it’s a tempest in a teapot at best. ---

If she showed up at my bedside with a plateful of crackers, I wouldn’t point her towards the kitchen. She’s got some sexy blue eyes. Certainly not a two at ten, ten at two kinda gal… ---

Trust a Good Ol’ British tabloid to come up with the goods. [Warning… only if you really, really need to see.](http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2003572327,00.html) (It’s quite tasteful - they have put a maple leaf over the “main” area. If this link is inappropriate, please, please inform a mod and get the link deleted. But it’s an extraordinarily well-read newspaper over here, and the story - likewise the picture - is quite definitely in the public domain). The more worrying aspect for me is the name of the bloke kicking up the major stink - Councillor Nipper Kettle, anyone? ---

We also had a Welsh MP take a photograph of himself in his underpants and post it on a website. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/naked-mayor-pictures/218422.md?page=2)
