Cain Scandal Expanding

Posted on by

First the FUNDRAISER. My annual fall fundraiser really does make the difference between me having a roof over my hear or living in a cardboard box under an overpass, so please help if you are able.





Second, I was sorry to hear that a woman has come forward today to accuse Herman Cain of sexual assault in 1997. I regret the right-wing smear job that is about to fall upon this woman, Sharon Bialek, who held a press conference today with her attorney, Gloria Allred.

I also regret that this may derail Herman Cain’s presidential campaign, as I was beginning to hope he would derail Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign. But, so far, Cain’s supporters on the blogosphere are dismissing the charge as “rent-seeking” and note that the accuser is from Chicago.

Fall Fundraiser Time

Posted on by

Once again the I find myself looking at a negative cash flow situation, and I have plumbing issues and car repair issues and several other looming expenses that I’ve put off too long and must be addressed asap. It’s been a whole year since my last fundraisier, so I’m once again passing the hat and asking for whatever donations you can spare.





Those of you who have issues with PayPal: I am working on an alternate payment method that I hope to have set up later today, so hang in there.

Update: I don’t want to go through my whole song and dance about my pathetic financial situation, and I’d just about rather pull out my own teeth than ask for money. But pulling out my own teeth doesn’t actually co much good, so … all help muchly appreciated. Even a couple of dollars here and there would make a huge difference to me right now.

Update: Well, I’m still working on the alternative method payment, but I might have something tomorrow.

Just for fun, if I sold T shirts or coffee mugs as a promotion, what should be on them? Any ideas?
