Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit. April showers bring May Flowers. Hopefully, the May Flowers won’t bring much more pollen. I’m not sure if it is the pollen, a virus, or what, but I’ve really been hurting this week. I have a bunch of things I need to get done today, and I’m way behind schedule.

At the top of the list today is to promote Jeffrey Feldman’s book launch for Outright Barbarous: How the Violent Language of the Right Poisons American Democracy. The book is supposed to start shipping today, and Dr. Feldman is encouraging everyone to order the book today on Amazon as part of the online book launch party. More details can be found on the event at Facebook. While you’re at it, stop by at Dr. Feldman’s blog Frameshop.

Beyond that, if you are in Connecticut, you need to call your State Senator today, to let them know that you oppose efforts by Republican State Senators to make it harder for people, especially, the poor, minorities and the elderly, to vote, by requiring that they get photo identification.

With all of that, I need to throw myself into the day that is starting the wonderful month of May. Let’s see I can rack up another National Blog Posting Month (NaBloPoMo) of putting a post up every day. So far, I’ve managed to do it for the first four months. Let’s also see what other great opportunities can come this way this month.
