Well he's going to be appearing in some fru-friendly cities and wanted to give folks a heads up to check out this very talented independent artist. A great opportunity to check him out before committing any $ is the Bob and Tom syndicated radio show. Paul will be visiting them for the 2nd time tomorrow (Tues, 12/6) at 8 AM CST. (That means 7 here in Cincinnati, but I don't know if other stations will delay the broadcast). Now I find Bob and Tom to be rather juvenile and fully suspect they had Paul on the first time because they thought they might get some yucks at the expense of some "ignorant, funny speaking southern hick", but they were totally charmed by Paul and he was such a big hit he stay on the show an hour longer than scheduled and received this invite back. Check him out if you can. Let me know what you think You can listen to the Bob and Tom show on the net at www.wfbq.com/main.html (http://www.wfbq.com/main.html) (hope one of these is clickable). On the left side of the page, about 2/3 of the way down, there is a place that says.....Wanna listen to Q95?...Click our knob. If you like what you hear of Paul, He will be at the Ark in Ann Arbor 12/6, Little Brother's in Columbus on 12/10, Lynagh's in Lexington KY on 12/12, Southgate House in Northern KY - Cincinnati on 12/13 and at Canal Street Tavern in Dayton, OH on 12/14. He will be co-headlining with someone I haven't heard named Slaid Cleves, and Paul will be playing first. If you go, be sure to talk to Paul after the show - he is very accessible. Tell him you're a fru-head. He wasn't familiar with Fruvous when I talked with him so spread the word. And look for me at the Cincinnati, Columbus and Dayton shows. I'll be wearing my fruvous pin. Have to show Paul Thorn this is just normal behavior for a fruhead!

Am I the only one that finds humor in the fact that Kath is a canadian and she's bitching about the US election. :) As much as I think a lot of it is petty squabbling, I do find it almost mildly refreshing, the idea that everyone's vote should count. Of course, vote is defined pretty losely, to a republican it means any vote which was for George Bush could count and for Gore it means anything that looks like it might sorta be a vote for Gore. Of course the ironies of this election have been almost as humorous. I want bumperstickers made out which say "Bush, I don't trust people, I trust machines". His brillant statement to the effect the it's the legislature which interprets the laws not the judiciary (something any 8th grader who studies US government would tell you, that the judiciary interprets the laws) made my laugh so hard I almost fell over. That is until I realized that this idiot is probably going to be the president (note how I didn't say 'our' president because I didn't vote for him or any of his asenine policy proprosals). > This is, of course, a person speaking who'll throw a random five- > dollar bill in if we're off on the check in a restaurant, without > trying to figure who's short, just so she can get out of there faster. Always taking the easy way out I see. After not having any real legal crisis since OJ and Elian, there were too many grandstanding lawyers without anything good to do... this is probably going to take until Dec 18, to really figure out. Assuming the that Florida legistature just doesn't take things into their own hands and put forth their own slate of electors. > So for me, yeah, I'm getting really sick of it all, at least to the > point of childish name-calling.
