I'm Braden (AKA Big Head Braden or just "Head") from the "Karlson & McKenzie" show on 100.7 WZLX, Boston's Classic Rock. I'm the co-founder of coltmonday.com, and a contributor to WZLX.com, as well as the Celtics blogger for 98.5 The Sports Hub. (Yeah, I'm shocked, too.)
I’m 49 y.o., do not drive and “lost” my non-driver’s ID almost 20 years ago when it went through the wash AND dry laundry cycles (along with 6 Luther Vandross/En Vogue tickets). I haven’t wanted/needed to fly on an airplane since 1995, I have credit cards, checking account etc., so I’ve never needed to specifically go through the aggravation of getting another non-driver’s ID from New York State. Luckily, I still don’t, since I know most of the little old ladies who work for the Board of Elections since I was a little fat kid. But if I lived in Pennsylvania or in any of the mostly southern, Republican controlled-states who changed VOTER ID laws over the last 2-3 years, I’d be “screwed” on Tuesday, November 6th. I think there were “only” 2000 voter FRAUD indictments with @1000 total convictions from Y2000 through 2010…in a country of over 300 million people….and, I think, about half of them were BY Republicans (i.e. Kentucky Senate Primary in 2010). I think you can ONLY use driver’s/non-driver’s photo IDs to vote in Georgia/per their recent legislation, and even a Ga. Tech of Univ. of Georgia photo id. is NOT sufficient. I hope the various voting rights groups CLOG up the lines in all these states…start a new civil rights cause, and perhaps a new GREY PANTHER movement!
One of the founders of Colt Monday (Both the website and the weekly Emerson "soiree"), Mike Morrison passed away in May 2009. He was the best friend anybody ever had. It might not be much, but this website is dedicated to his memory. We love you and we miss you, Mikey.
By the way, I've been assigned to "Team Shanahan Real Estate." I'm going to propose we start calling ourselves the "Fightin' Realtors" ASAP. 2 hours ago
