We're already hearing about long lines, and want you to be prepared to stay in line and have your vote count. The longest waits will surely be on Election Day (Nov 4), so if you are able to vote early in your state you may avoid the worst of it. Click here to see if you qualify for early voting in your state . If you do encounter long lines, here are some ways to have fun and ensure you can vote: - Go with friends and/or bring phones, iPods, lawn chairs, food, reading materials, proper clothing, etc. - Don't believe the polls if they say a candidate is winning or losing. They've been wrong before. - Ask for the day-off from work or class. Call-in sick or play hooky. - Verify your vote and polling station BEFORE you head to the polls -- don't wait on line only to have a problem. You can do both by calling 1-866-OUR-VOTE or contact your local County Election Office. Or, use the Google Map voter tool . - Help others stay in line too. Share your food, drink, music, reading materials, election protection informationWe're in this together. - Make sure to take this number with you so that if you encounter any problems, you can talk to nonpartisan election lawyers who can help: 1-866-OUR-VOTE or be sure to request a provisional ballot. - If you do run into any problems at the polls, Video The Voteand document election problems as they occur. Happy voting and please pass this on! Love, Thomas ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2008 18:19:44 -0800 From: "Mary Brown" Subject: Re: Alloy: For the Split Enz fans out there... Crackers, Will you please explain to me how you apparently are getting younger with time?! Or am I aging for both of us?

I was watching an older British television special from 1999 called "Definitely Dusty" about Dusty Springfield and was really surprised to see a familiar name, albeit misspelled, in some of Dusty's handwritten notes that were briefly on camera. She apparently wanted to do some work with Lene Lovich (which she wrote as Lovitch) so I can't help but wonder if she ever contacted Lene. Chris, can you shed some light on this? The narrator mentioned that she admired performers who were unique and took chances which certainly describes Lene.
