Michael Muller may be the the most-fascinating TMI tweeter in all of Asheville. The former political consultant for local candidates is now a reporter for the Mountain Xpress. 

Here’s a sample of Muller’s Twitter feed from Monday, which offers a good taste of what it’s like to follow Muller’s on-the-fly musings. He was on assignment, covering Lt. Gov. Walter Dalton’s talk at Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College.

Here, Muller comments on everything from the attractiveness of college co-eds to a pee stain on his pants:

I plan to ask the Lt. Governor what’s up with Governor Purdues’ smile. Does she use Joker products?

Doug Hutchman a Counselor with Buncombe County Early College at AB Tech is peaking. So far, the best ;looking person all morning

These economic development experts could use a course in Powerpoint presentations

Not to self: dilaudid and espresso drinks do not mix

@fobes I’ll have to call Dan for the stats when I get back to the office…he left already

Drew Benbow a Student at Buncombe County Early College and an intern with Moog is speaking. He’s more articulate than these wonks

Future City Council candidate?

“Early college let me discover job skills I never knew I had.” — Drew Benbow, Student at Buncombe County Early College

I’m on

Just finished interviewing the Lt. Governor. I don’t think he noticed the pee stain on my paint

…on my pants. On my pants. . I don’t think he noticed the pee stain on my pants.

My little area is littered with cords, empty coffee cups, camera lenses and bags. It looks like a sombination of Best Buy & a homeless camp

Now eating at the little cafeteraia thing. 3 pieces of sushi and a Mountain Dew — ten bucks. That’s a whole day’s pay at Mountain XPress!

When I was in college, they never had food like this. When I was in college, The Bee Gees were still at the top of the charts #stayinalive

I gotta get out of here. Tweet later.

I’m hungrier than when I started

I think I may pop back in the meeting room and get a handful of those free yummy muffins to snack on.

So I’m outside smoking a cigarette when this sour-faced post-pubescent smartypants coed says there’s no smoking except in approved areas

What sort of place is this?

Everywhere you turn there’s a row of bins for recyclng every conceivable category of item, but no ashtrays.

Sitting here on a bench watching all the good-looking students in various states of undress go by. I’m so creepy I’m creeping myself out.

Let this be a lesson to you, college students! If you don’t study & can’t be bothered to apply yourself, this is what you’ll end up like.
