I haven't said much here about the presidential race, a silence which I'm sure has puzzled those who know my passion for our country and my interest in politics. I expect to be voicing my views much more frequently once my show has opened (one month from today!) and I have time to think about things other than theater and work.

In the meantime, I offer this prelude to jackscheer.com's coverage of the 2004 campaign. It's in the form of an article by veteran newsman Walter Cronkite. In Sunday's Denver Post, Cronkite advised Senator John Kerry not to run away from himself as he runs toward the White House.

I'm sure the folks in the Kerry camp have read it. I just hope they take it to heart.



A number of friends have called, e-mailed, or blogged about my "cryptic" post on Saturday. To those who've asked what I'm being so coy about this time, I can only beg your patience and indulgence.

Please believe me: I tried with all my might to refrain from teasing y'all yet again. Alas, I could not hold myself back. What can I say? I gotta be me.



Speaking of patience, Washington fans will have the shortest possible wait for the return of Coach Joe Gibbs to the sidelines. He and his team will kick off the 2004 NFL preseason, going up against the Denver Broncos in the Hall of Fame Game on August 9th. That's a mere twenty weeks away!

Not that I'm counting or anything.
