Did you hear that Glenn Beck said he wouldn't vote for Joe Lieberman because he's Jewish.  It's true and he can't deny it, because he said it on TV.

I think 2 things abou this.

1.  Joe Lieberman might get more votes if he converted to Christianity.

2. Glenn Beck is no Larry King.

Larry King would never say anything like that, because I think he's actually Jewish, and he seems like he's a lot nicer.

I am writing a new book about the British sailors who were kidnapped by Iran, and their experiences while in Iran.

I am looking for a few ideas about some extra stuff to put in the book, like what kinds of places they visited in Iran, what the weather was like, and what meeting Nancy Pelosi meant to them.

I like to write about animals, too.  So, if you can think or let me know what animals are in Iran (maybe there are probably the regular animals like dogs, cats, and birds) I would love to know about them.

I am also looking for someone to illustrate my work and go with me to any book signings.  If you are an artist, please let me know in your comment.

I am a writer of childrens books about current events that kids have to deal with, like the horrors of 9/11, and the war in Iraq, and things here in America, like the Democrats winning back the Congress (yeah!).

I try to make if fun and lively, but also as real as possible without scaring them. Although some fear is a helthy thing.

Anyway, this week is Children's Book week and I'm offering to come to your schools, libraries, or day care centers to do readings of some of my books. I will sign them if the kids want me to.

In addition to doing the readings, I have a presentation of the changing of the guard, that I do by myself. I only need the help of one person from the library (or other place I'm at) to make the clicking noises when I hit my heals together.

If you are interested in having me come (My real name is Tony) just reply to this blog. It is free, I just want to get the word out about what's going on in our world.

Have a great Happy Children's Book Week!

Is anyone else in favor of raising the speed limit on I-4 so we can get around town a lot faster?

I see people (probably BrandiWine) flying past me at like 85 or more miles per hour. To me, it would be a lot, I mean a lot safer if we were all going the same speed.

I just hate that if I want to go to Animal Kingdom to see the lions, I have to get there really early. It takes me like 45 minutes to get there from Sanford, so I have to get up at about 7:00.

Does anyone else think it can be raised?

I went to a park (won't mention the name) in Seminole County, by Lake Jesup the other day, and I got bit several times by fire ants. Is it just me or are there a lot more ants than there used to be?

I have 2 questions. Why can't we just have someone dump that sprinkly white stuff from Home Depot all over the grass at local parks to stop us from getting bit? Isn't there tax money to take care of that? I'm sure lots of kids get bit by these ants. I can't imagine if I was playing hide and seek and had to stand in the same place hiding and looked down and saw a fire ant mound. The other question is what to put on the ant bites after you've been bit? Is there something I can do to make them stop hurting?
