Focus On The Rainbow

Unbeknown to each of us, Charlotte and I started blogging about the same time in 2007. And also unbeknown we both worked for CBS Broadcasting though in different divisions, she in TV and myself in Radio, albeit not quite at the same time.

To be honest I forget how I came to send Charlotte an email a year or so ago, but ever since then I pester her with a multitude of links to postings I’ve done and she in turn, although not ad nauseum as myself, will send links to hers.

Charlotte has been an activist for same-sex marriage in MA and started her first website OUTTAKE Online which promotes her video production company. Then came along OUTTAKE BLOG  and her newest venture OUTTAKE VOICES where she interviews the movers and shakers in the LGBT community (sans moi’ !) and has audio clips of the interviews. Oh and did I mention she now has an online store called the OUTTAKE EQUALITY STORE .

This gal has almost as many blogs and websites as I do. Must have been something in the CBS drinking water.

So why, because this blog appears on a website for “sportsfags” should you be interested in learning about Charlotte ?

Well perhaps because during her tenure at CBS Broadcasting she won an Emmy Award while working on the NFL Today program. Not too shabby eh ?

Charlotte aside from being a like minded LGBT, has become an “unoffical” cuz’in and because she is always good about sending me goofy and sometimes serious birthday and holiday email cards, I thought I’d give you an intro to Charlotte in this belated “Birthday Card”.

She roots for the Red Sox (sigh) and I believe the Patriots too.

The only fault I have with Charlotte is she likes to name drop, at least to me, which she knows I get green with envy.

But then she can’t claim as I can that she went for a ride with Paul Newman in his race car at Lime Rock Park here in Connecticut.

Happy Birthday Kid-O and check out her websites and blogs sometime.
