Columbine Father's Petition Drive

I am writing to you and a few other bloggers asking for help. My name is Tom Mauser and my son Daniel was killed at Columbine High School. If we don’t stand up to President Bush and the NRA right now, the assault weapons ban will expire and AK47s and Uzis will be back on our streets.

++++++++++

Here is what you can do to help:

1) Sign my petition to extend the assault weapon ban: http://www.tomspetition.org/blog_alert.php
When you sign up, we will automatically create a bloggable Personal Petition Page.

2) Link to your Personal Petition Page from your site and encourage your readers to sign up. Our special petition software will show you the number of people that sign up because of your effort, and even generate a map showing how the supporters are distributed across America.

++++++++++

Help honor the legacy of my son and prove that bloggers can make a difference!

Thank you,
Tom Mauser
Not that extending the assault weapons ban is unimportant, but the most important line in Tom Mauser's email is ". . . prove that bloggers can make a difference!" I'm a little worn down right now. The lies go on and on and on. Not just the politicians, but the media spin masters called pundits, reporters, astroturf campaigns . . . don't even get me started on TV news. TV news is to information what GW Bush is to honesty. Like Neil Young said, "Rust never sleeps." But I have to.

I feel like every campaign from now on will start from the premise that the candidate who best distorts reality wins, and the American people will be the losers. Yeah, I know that's not completely new, but the awful level it has descended to is unprecedented, and I doubt it's ever going to crawl out again. Still, to have any chance of ever making this government serve the interests of the majority instead of the elites, we've got to prove we can move voters. This is one way to do it. Here's the link to my petition page. I've also added it to the sidebar. I hope other bloggers will use the link in Tom's email to add their blogs to the fight.

Hi Tom, firstly let me say how brave you have been since the terrible tradgety that took place in 1999.

I had tears in my eyes the first time I watched Bowling For Columbine, and being a high school student at the time found it very moving.

I am now studying journalism and believe like you do that there needs to be a huge clamp down on guns in America.

I am writing a feature about gun-crime and was wondering if there would be any chance that I could carry out an interview with you.

If you are interested please send me an e-mail, my address is craig.e24@hotmail.co.uk.

Thank you for your time and your campaign so far...

Sorry to intrude but I saw your blog, noticed you have anonymous posting enabled and thought you might be interested in this great search engine optimization tool for your blog and website (if you have one) that a techi mate recommended to me. Apparently it's all the rage in the IT arena.

I am involved in yahoo ecommerce and I've found the best way of promoting my blogs and websites is The amazing link referral program. Don't worry it is absolutely free to join and you can generate visitors to your site by visiting others. It is really quick and easy to set up and the traffic you generate will help your website increase in google ranking. Give it a go now!!

I have generated amazing traffic from this program - increasing my affiliate sales and cannot recommend this enough. Believe me, if you have tried all the other programs on the market that you have had to pay for then you realise this one is the best - and it's free!!!

Best of luck with the blog!! I hope you get as much out of this program as I have ;-)

The Me What I Am

I took the name Phaedrus from Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Not that I'm as smart as that Phaedrus, but I am a ghost. Sort of.

I started doing odd jobs at a motel when I was 14.
I lasted one day at a McDonald's, quit,
lasted a lot longer at Taco Bell.
I've been a gas station attendant,
janitor, die cast production worker,
day laborer,
course maintenance at a miniature golf course,
warehouse, union janitor,
cabbie, statistical clerk,
pool cleaner, working homeless
for a few weeks
(day labor),
and several other things I can't remember.
And I've survived.
Sort of.
I'm not a Marxist, but I am a genuine member of the lumpen proletariat.

Publish it. Twist it. Rewrite it. Swing to it. I wrote it, that's all I wanted to do."
