have been thinking about approaching your mom as you suggested, & giving you a finders fee. could be covered through your landlord.
10% depending on how much of course, is usually standard.
we could also look at more. right now i have 10 days to secure the money.
think i have a $2500 contribution.
will need 6 donors at that level.
was thinking of asking your mom for $5k, which would put her in the "leadership role", 2500 is blue ribbon donor.
all of come w. pr.

i feel pretty creepy about this, so i have no problem not doing it.
we have to weigh would $500 be helpful now to you?

still struggling, but things feel better..
sam has been very challenging, doesn't like to be out of here, but he came by 5 times yesterday....
occasionally not at all, mostly once or twice a day.
it seems to be getting better.

mango is ready to be re.homed.
i haven't had a chance to re.write/re.post his ad, but as soon as the hay drive is over, or i at least cross the $11k line.
$16k is what we need.

let me know.
i will also call.
think of you often, & how you are doing.

you were beyond right about me being valued here.
working towards that being better, & careful about what i give different people. 
a long way from ideal, but getting better.

wonder if your kitty is still around. thinking she might have left for a space somewhere.
tux, our 16 yo outdoor cat died this summer, left the barn, but not too far.
we didn't see him for a week.

chow is getting old now as well.

midnite is our only barn cat who is active.

must go.

let me know your thoughts.

i will call you.
unless you want me to do it, i won't.
just creepy.

if it could cover your teeth, or give you a boost, i would.

might be away that we could make it $1k, if they gave $5k, but have to purchase the hay lst.

for now.
think of you with love.

Lincolnian Simplicity

   The first sentence in Lincoln's Gettysburg Address offers a worth-while example

of construction so simple and yet so powerful that more than one comma could not

be employed in it without intrusion : "Fourscore and seven years ago our father brought

forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition

that all men are created equal."   Note how one trifle more of the seasoning of punc-

tuation would detract from the flavor.

   And then note how the FLAVOR would flatten out, in the next sentence of the

Address, if the commas were removed : "The world will little note, nor long remember,

what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here."   The two commas are

employed for FLAVORING only.  They could be omitted without obscuring the meaning.

   Note, again, in the next following sentence, how Lincoln's simple, direct sentence

construction defies the comma : "We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a 

final resting place of those who here gave their lives that the nation might live."

Nowhere in the Address is a comma used for other than FLAVOR--any one might

be omitted without impairing the meaning, except possibly the one after "nation"

in the first sentence.

Fireside chats

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roosevelt shortly after giving one of his famous fireside chats

The fireside chats were a series of thirty evening radio addresses given by PresidentFranklin D. Roosevelt between 1933 and 1944. Although the World War I Committee on Public Information had seen presidential policy propagated to the public en masse, "fireside chats" were the first media development that facilitated intimate and direct communication between the president and the citizens of the United States. Roosevelt's cheery voice and demeanor played him into the favor of citizens and he soon became one of the most popular presidents ever, often affectionately compared to Abraham Lincoln.^[1] On radio, he was able to quell rumors and explain his reasons for social change slowly and comprehensibly.^[2] Radio was especially convenient for Roosevelt because it enabled him to hide his polio symptoms from the public eye. Roosevelt preferred radio, because most of the major newspapers in the United States, and most of the circulation, tilted heavily toward the opposing Republican Party.

Origin of radio address[edit]

According to biographer James MacGregor Burns, Roosevelt first used what would become known as "fireside chats" in 1929 as Governor of New York.^[3] Roosevelt faced a conservative Republican legislature, so during each legislative session, he would occasionally address the residents of New York directly.^[4] In a New York History journal article on the origin of the fireside chats, Geoffrey Storm notes that while a WGY radio "address of April 3, 1929 was Roosevelt's third gubernatorial radio address, historian Frank Freidel asserts that this was the first fireside chat."^[4] In these speeches, Roosevelt appealed to radio listeners for help getting his agenda passed.^[3] Letters would pour in following each of these "chats," which helped pressure legislators to pass measures Roosevelt had proposed.^[5] He began making the informal addresses as president on March 12, 1933, during the Great Depression.^[6] According to Russell D. Buhite and David W. Levy, in their introduction to Roosevelt's Fireside Chats, "The term 'Fireside Chat' was not coined by Roosevelt, but by Harry C. Butcher of CBS, who used the two words in a network press release before the speech of May 7, 1933; the term was quickly adopted by press and public, and the president himself later used it."^[7]

Rhetorical manner[edit]

Sometimes beginning his talks with "Good evening, friends," Roosevelt urged listeners to have faith in the banks and to support his New Deal measures. The "fireside chats" were considered enormously successful and attracted more listeners than the most popular radio shows during the "Golden Age of Radio." Roosevelt continued his broadcasts into the 1940s, as Americans turned their attention to World War II.^[8] Roosevelt's first fireside chat was March 12, 1933, which marked the beginning of a series of 30 radio broadcasts to the American people, in which he reassured them that the nation was going to recover and shared his hopes and plans for the country. The chats ranged from fifteen to forty-five minutes long, and eighty percent of the words used were in the one thousand most commonly used words in the English dictionary.^[5]

No longer was the message of the administration to be tinkered with by the interpretations of the press; Roosevelt was simply going to tell the people what he was doing and why. This level of intimacy with politics made people feel as if they too were part of the administration's decision-making process and many soon felt that they knew Roosevelt personally. Most importantly, they grew to trust him,^[2] and thus he was able to implement the most radical social overhaul in U.S history without much internal dissent.^[9]

Weekly address and effect on the press[edit]

Every U.S. president since Roosevelt has delivered periodic addresses to the American people, first on radio, and later adding television and the Internet. The practice of regularly scheduled addresses began in 1982 when President Ronald Reagan started delivering a radio broadcast every Saturday.^[10] Conservative journalist William A. Rusher, who publicly urged Reagan to begin the series of broadcasts, explicitly referred to the "fireside chats" and compared Reagan's communications skills to those of Roosevelt. Although the "fireside chats" are sometimes thought of as weekly events, Roosevelt delivered just 30 addresses^[5] during the course of a presidency that lasted for 4,422 days,^[11] or 631 weeks, an average of one address every twenty weeks.

Reagan's successors have continued his practice of making weekly addresses, though such addresses have rarely attracted large numbers of listeners (perhaps because of the much more fragmented mass audience than that of the Roosevelt era). When President Barack Obama took office, he began providing his address in both audio and video forms, both of which are available online via whitehouse.gov and YouTube.^[12] It has long become customary for the President's Weekly Radio Address to be followed an hour later (on the radio) by a 'response' (not always a topical response) by a member of the opposing political party. The respondent from the opposing party changes weekly, while the President is the same for the entirety of their term. Occasionally the Vice President may deliver the address in the absence of the President.^[13]

The conventional press grew to love Roosevelt because they too had gained unprecedented access to the goings-on of government.^[2] Roosevelt’s opponents had control of most newspapers during his first bid for the presidency but he cleverly circumnavigated their influence by penetrating directly into the living rooms of citizens with radio addresses. It became increasingly difficult to voice opposition to government policy because the president carried more clout than any reporter or other politician. He was able to personally address the nation if any issue was controversial, like he did on October 16, 1940, when he spoke on the radio about the first ever peacetime draft he had ordered a month earlier. He did this less than a month before presidential elections were to take place, which for any other president would probably have been political suicide, but Roosevelt was able to use his new media techniques to garner domestic support for this international policy.^[14]The effectiveness was again proven when he was re-elected with 10% more of the popular vote than his opponent.^[15]

Legacy[edit]

Radio technology, along with Roosevelt’s charm in his approach to the media, had once again revolutionized the relationship between the public and the administration. Simultaneously, the role of the president had begun to change; it was now imperative that he be a charismatic impromptu speaker as well as classically stoic in formal situations. The president’s personality was becoming an increasingly important factor in elections. Such a huge development would not be seen again until the next great technological communication tool reached maturity, and that was to be television.
