Habitat for Humanity New Orleans

Yes my AOL friends, I have risen from blog death and only a good cause could resurrect me.

It's no secret that New Orleans was devastated by Hurricane Katrina last year, a scar on our country that still requires a lot of care and money and work to heal.

As you may or may not know, one of my favorite people in the world, actor/comedian Hal Sparks, is participating on Simon Cowell's new reality show "Celebrity Duets".  It's a weekly competition that pairs up musical legends with celebrities not known for their singing ability all in the name of charity.

Hal's decided that should he win, $100,000 goes to Habitat for Humanity to help aid those affected by Hurricane Katrina.

For the last few weeks I've voted my little redial button off to get him to the finals, and tonight he sings against Lucy (Xena) Lawless and Alfonso (Carlton Banks) Ribeiro in the finale. 

So if you would, please tune in tonight and check Hal out on Celebrity Duets on Fox.  And if he gives a performance worth your vote, please call in and vote as many times as you can.  It's free from a landline and you can vote as many times as you want for up to two hours after the program ends.

A tiny chunk of your time could mean a roof over someone's head who really needs it.

Save a tree, support a blogger

A very nice writer friend of mine has presented the opportunity to contribute to his online blog-azine called Pointless Banter.  On there, I have yet another blog called  Ginger @ Large (which I find extremely appropriate!).  Anyway, we're hoping it will take off and after about four months I should see some profits from THEIR advertising. 

Your support would be very much appreciated by me and my pocketbook.  :)
