   About Year Of The Wild Cat
Caroline Lorre and Len Lauro are the singing, writing and driving force behind Year Of The Wild Cat, founded in 1992 after inspiration from a Damded concert in NY at the Ritz. Caroline brings her theatrical backround and a 30 year passion for rock and roll to the band in her role as lead singer and front person for Year Of The Wild Cat. Len Lauro freelanced his bass playing on the East Coast during the 70s and 80s before joining with Caroline to form Year Of The Wild Cat. Now, living on the West Coast, Year Of The Wild Cat actively gigs using a number of stunning players including Adam Briggs - formally the drummer for the Teenage Harlets - and Jim Bove - freelance drummer who does most of their current shows. "There's some formal training, some street wise, but all in all Year Of The Wild Cat aims to deliver great songs the best way we can and with the fun it takes to be Rock and Roll." It wasn't like that in New York where Year Of The Wild Cat was ousted (ASKED TO LEAVE!) just about every club we played - or attempted to. "Times were different in the early 90s and it would seem that the band was not really appreciated, partly because of the lame-ass suburban attitudes that were prevalent and partly because Year Of The Wild Cat (called PROBLEM at the time) didn't like them either but things are great here in California where we continue to write, sing, record, gig, and I hope, inspire." - len lauro

I think she did wonderful in the debate in every way. I just can't understand how he has all these people under his spell. He has no experience as she does.

OMG we need to get busy... for HILLARY!
How can people be so nieve to elect someone so inexperianced?
Jennifer





Feb 19 2008 8:11 PM

Yeah, this just confirms what I only started to believe about people in 2004... most are sheep who don't think for themselves. I'm still holding out hope for Ohio and Texas, though!

So much for Wisconsin voting smart! It appears they want to elect a "word" into office, instead of an actual candidate. Dictionaries and Thesauruses all over the world should be proud!

I plan on attending this tomorrow:


N.H. State Representative Betty Hall Announces Public Hearing to Petition
Congress for Impeachment

New Hampshire Representative Betty Hall Announces Expert Witnesses to testify at
Legislative Hearing for House Resolution 24 to Commence Impeachment Procedures
in the US Congress.

Representative Hall's focus on House Resolution 24 begins the process of
Impeachment for the President and the Vice President at the State level. In the
State of New Hampshire, the procedure then goes to committee for a public
hearing. Rep. Hall welcomes the public to attend and comment at a rally and a
hearing:

Rally: 12 Noon Tuesday, February 19 at the State House Plaza.

Hearing: 1:00 pm Tuesday, February 19 at the State Legislative Office Building,
Rooms 305 and 307.

Key to New Hampshire's legislative process is a strong committee recommendation
for passage in the full House. Because the committee level is crucial,
Representative Hall has invited a number of expert witnesses to testify on five
distinct articles of impeachment. Witnesses will include Selectman Dan DeWalt
VT, Herb Hoffman ME NEImpeach.org, John Kaminski Maine Lawyers for Democrac,y
and Paul Lehto, a lawyer representing Election Integrity.

Uniquely for NH citizens, every bill introduced and sent to committee receives a
vote in the full House. In NH there are 400 House legislators from a relatively
small population state. In order for HR24 to be brought to Washington DC, only
House passage is needed, neither a vote in the Senate nor a signature from the
Governor is needed to send the petition to the US Congress.

Representative Hall has worked tirelessly to make sure the people's voice is
heard in New Hampshire. The committee hearing serves as an opportunity for the
public to become involved, expressing the voice of a true democracy

I'm on myspace for 2 reason. Supporting Hillary & this little girl who is no longer on this earth. Her Mom and I have become very close even though I'm on the East Coast and she is on the West Coast. As heartbreaking as this story is, it has to be told b/c there are too many stories out there like this:.. ......Make an on-line slideshow at www.OneTrueMedia.com....
