Debates tonight and much more!

Royale trivia at the bottom.

And the debate continues.  Funny, for I feel there is not really much new to talk about.  We kinda need to start doing, and this election is delaying us actually doing anything.  But alas, November will be here soon and we can cast our vote for our choice of our next President and we can start moving on all this. 

The past few debates have been fun if not a bit hectic.  We had the BBC in to interview people which was rather funny.  You can check out the BBC's Jennifer Copestake's work here: http://tinyurl.com/3lahdp

Considering the great rush last Debate Party we will be using a streamlined special food menu in order for us to keep our service proper.  The debate formally starts at 8, but it is suggested that you get here early, like 6!

And this is your last chance: All registrations must be to the Board of Election by the end of the business day Wednesday.  Register your friends to vote.  They may have moved.  That is okay, but they need to register at their new address.  Maybe they were never registered.  That is okay too, but you need them to register.  No judging on past failures to register, we need to focus on people voting. 

Other upcoming fun at the Royale:

The venerable Jesse Irwin will be hosting a fundraiser for the campaign/movement of Missourians Against Red Light Cameras in the back courtyard on the Saturday the 25th of October, 2-5pm.  The Missourians Against Red Light Cameras or MARLC(pronounced like garlic) welcome several bands performing including the Red Light Runners.  That band ain't no joke! The Red Light Runners are sorta like the Descendants meets the Clash at some tavern on the southside of Saint Louis.   http://www.myspace.com/theredlightrunners  State Rep Jim Lempke will be discussing his bill to ban these cameras statewide around 3 or so.

Donations for entrance to the courtyard for this event are suggested.  If you are not comfortable bucking up because are unsure what you think about MARLC, there is another option.  So if you want to check out the event you can either kick in to the suggested donation, or you may define a smart intersection in at least one paragraph.  Answers are subject to review, please send answer via email.  To find out more about MARLC check out: http://www.redlightcameraban.com/

Also- here is some video/news work I do on the side.  Here is an interesting story in which the students of SLU managed to pressure the powers that be to get a polling station on campus so these young Americans can exercise their most important right:
