Please join me in requesting Disney Online to offer Jeff Kurtti something like a straightforward, sensible space to blog in, where his fans can subscribe and be informed of any new posts, and not have to scour Disney Online to find the touching, interesting things that he has written. There is a demand for his writing, even if Disney Online is not sufficiently aware of that.

For my Central Florida listeners: Go see Lauren Butler, TDO‘s announcer,  in Orlando Shakespeare Theatre’s Studio production of The Exit Interview!
