Hollywood and Broadway Actress Christine Ebersole surprises (and impresses) a lot of people with the following entry to her blog, Dining with the Oligarchy. I wanted to make sure that you get the chance to read it, so here it is in its entirety. Be sure to also go read the many excellent follow-up comments left at her blog in response.
For the better part of two months now, the Anvil has been sputtering and gagging for air. The server has been a nightmare of slow-motion and, yes, it drives me crazy. I feel like apologizing each day to my readers for the condition of the hosting here.
However, chins up, gentle readers. I feel not so much as a blogger being hanged, as I do one that is about to find new footing on fresh ground. The next couple of weeks will spell big personal changes for me one way or another, and if things go my way, then I will not only eventually salvage the work here at the Anvil, but I will finally launch the Anvil on a fully dedicated server. It’s going to be touch and go for awhile and I can’t promise frequent updates in the interim, but hang in there, because at least the potential for vast and overdue improvements to the Anvil, long hoped for, is finally staring me in the face.
I’m still debating whether to move out of the country if Obama gets elected President…and I’m not much happier about McCain. The best choice left for the nation right now would be Huckabee, but since I’m convinced the elites have already crowned McCain King of the USA (and they started oiling the ‘machine’ way back in June of 2007), it’s really against the odds for any other Republican contender.
Most of us are still thirsting for “something completely different” in U.S. politics, but you might at least still have me breathing fire on the Blogosphere later this year. That’s about the best consolation prize that I can offer hope for right at this moment.
