MIA

I know I’ve been neglecting the blog lately but thanks to those of you who have been checking in on me. Most of you know, I’m in Virginia dealing with a family emergency. It’s been really difficult but I’m glad we are all here together and we’re coming to terms with our inevitable loss as a family. I’ve been posting to my moblog so you can all keep up with me on my travels. I promise to write more soon. Thanks for your support.

That’s how many dollars we need to raise to reach our minimum for the AIDS marathon. Deadline is just 3 days away. Now’s the time for some serious brain-storming. If any of you have any good ideas where we can get the money, leave a comment.

You missed a great party

September 19, 2004

Weeks of preparation, thousands of dollars worth of donations of food, drinks, and raffle prizes… and a grand total of 15 guests.

I’ve been banned

September 17, 2004

Dear TextAmerica,
I’m sorry I violated your “no nudity” rule by posting this photo on my moblog. I was merely trying to draw attention to my AIDS benefit. My intentions were pure, though my actions – not so much. You have to admit, it is funny. And it did get your attention. Right? Right? Hello? Can [...]

You know what that means! Seriously, folks. The fundraising deadline for the AIDS Marathon is October 1st and we are a little less than half way there. Think all this begging is getting annoying? How do you think I feel? If each of you just donated $25…

That is what the Republican Party does best � we extend freedom.

September 7, 2004

That’s what Giuliani said during his speech at the Republican National Convention. Meanwhile, outside the convention hall, thousands of protesters and unlucky passers-by were being arrested without being read their rights and detained by the hundreds in huge unsanitary holding pens.
I have been scouring the internet for news on this story, getting all worked up, [...]

Close Race = Good Ratings

September 3, 2004

Everyone loves a good fight. Sports matches are most interesting when the competing teams are evenly matched. Everyone loves when runners are neck and neck as they cross the finish line.
