am I becoming a blogger?!?!

I started this blog initially to be a promotional thing-hence it's title-as I don't have a website yet (anybody want to help fund that or work out a trade deal?) and needed someway to promote my cabaret show-or any other gig related news. As the cabaret show is done and can't be done again til 2005 and I got nothing else lined up at present-save to announce that the recording of the 2003 Encores! production of The New Moon of which I was part of will be released on 11/16 :)-I have been using this blog to talk baseball and the state of our nation.

I've been sending out e-mails since Monday about voter fraud and am continuing this because it really does need to be fully investigated and NEEDS TO GET INTO THE MAINSTREAM PRESS. Slowly but surely, it has been making news on the networks and in the papers, but, save for Keith Olberman and his MSNBC show Countdown (with corresponding blog) and Stephanie Miller who is braodcast on Air America in some states (like MA where my mom's been listening), the fight has practically been dismissed as an internet conspiracy theory issue. Well guess what, it's not just that. It's that you've got a whole bunch of people who were really angry about THE HORROR of last Tuesday and, due to the last stolen election, definitely became more wary of and savvy to this administration's anything-to-win tactics (such as tell the evangelicals that liberals will ban the Bible...anyone?) So, the saga continues...

the above is the latest from Keith Olberman's blog, dicussing how there are potential recounts in Ohio and New Hampshire...and not even because of the Presidential race! Hey, a recount's a recount, man. This is one time you may actually want to thank Nader and a man named Cobb...

the above here is an article from the Boston Globe about how we trying to keep up the fight are being dismissed, but you may notice how, though the lawyers and professors interviewed say that there appears to be no evidence of a stolen election, they do believe that all allegations should be taken seriously...hmmmmmm...Once again, a recount is a recount...it's always good to double-check.

I have yet to hear from my mother to see if Stephanie Miller has been talking about the voter fraud issue, but if you are in MA or in a state that broadcasts her show on Air America (officially 6a-9p though she is on 9a-12a in MA) take a listen!

In the meantime, feel free to copy this page and pass it on, pass it on, pass it on.

KEEP E-MAILING, WRITING, CALLING, FAXING...keep up the good fight my friends. I know people are looking into this, but it doesn't hurt to remind them that we're paying attention, ya know?

Peace --Alex
