Kudos to the Quiet Heroes
In the sea of utterly unpostive news posts where millionaires get bonuses they don't deserve and corrupt drug lords commit senseless murder, it's nice to know that some folks will do the right thing when called upon:

Major props to Chad Lindsey who saw a man in trouble and did the right thing with no expectations, no need for fame and glory. Just a guy who saw he could do something and did.

Fritzl Trial
Okay, so Josef Fritzl's attorney issued a statement to the press today, wanting the public to know that his client is not a monster.

This is a man who kept his daughter in a basement for over twenty years and is the father of her 6 children. If this guy he's not a monster, then your definition of monster is colored by those cute Sesame Street characters, Elmo and Grover. And the blue guy who really likes cookies.
I know someone has to defend this creep. But please don't try to gain any public sympathy for a *man* that has acted so despicably towards his own daughter. He is a monster, though the sort of monster that gives Sesame Street characters a bad name.

The Big E
I've rangled up an invite at the upcoming CAPA (Connecticut Association of Published Authors) Book Store at the Big E. http://www.aboutcapa.com/Big_E_Bookstore.htm
I'll be there on Saturday, September 20th, from 2 pm to 6 pm with the fabulous M.J.Allaire http://www.mjallaire.com/ and the equally fantastic Doreen Tango Hampton http://www.tangohampton.com/ . I couldn't have asked to be paired with two better ladies and I know we're going to have a blast!
I can attest to the fact that even though MJ is known as "The Dragon Lady" it's because of the subject matter of her books, and not a reflection of her personality! Further, my son is quite proud of his signed copy of Hampton's "I Like Gum".
I look forward to a fun afternoon at the fair, so if you're in our neck of the woods, stop on by!
