A little help from his friends

by Jack Grant

For those who read weblogs for more than an echo chamber of their own opinions, I have always recommended The Moderate Voice, set up by Joe Gandelman, and I offered that recommendation long before I was asked to post there.

Unfortunately, Joe has suffered the theft of his laptop computer, which is a severe blow to him for two reasons:

1) He travels a lot due to his career as a professional ventriloquist, so a laptop is a necessity for him to maintain The Moderate Voice.

2) His career as a professional ventriloquist is not as lucrative as many other jobs are, so this loss is a particularly large blow to him financially.

A large number of people appreciate Joe’s round-ups of various opinions in blogworld on the topics of the day, so it seems that giving a wee bit back wouldn’t be asking too much.

Joe has two “tip jars” in his left-hand column. One through PayPal (email address is info@familyentertainer.com with payment for “The Moderate Voice Tip Jar”) and another through Amazon. Please hit the one of your choice and contribute to the replacement of his stolen laptop.
