Is Mr. Bartley the New Kennedy?

While searching for a Bartley’s burger this weekend, FlyBy was surprised to find instead this mysterious note taped to the door:

We’ll venture to guess that the “Mr. Bartley” in the note is Billy Bartley, the son of the original founder and the restaurant's current manager and chef. After making so many Ted Kennedy burgers (famously described on the menu as “a plump, liberal amount of burger with cheddar cheese, mushrooms and French fries"), has Bartley decided it is time for him to be Ted Kennedy? Or is this morsel of a rumor just some more of Bartley’s tongue-in-cheek wit?

FlyBy isn’t sure yet, since none of the vacationing Bartleys could be reached. And we have to assume the burger king isn't actually contemplating a run, but regardless, this is the best excuse we've heard in months. We'll be using it as soon as mandatory sections start. Now if only they were offering The Politics of Congress this semester...
