So, Michael Moore cancelled four of his tour events in early October (including the book signing I had tickets for in Kansas City
sigh), with no explanation given on his website or anything as to why.
Rainy Day Books, who was organizing the event in KC, has posted an explanation that I haven't seen listed anywhere else; Michael has contracted walking pneumonia, but is trying to gut it out through to election day.
I'm surprised not to have seen any mention of this anywhere else. Can anyone who has made it to his Slacker Uprising tour dates comment on this? Was he coughing or seeming to be in otherwise poor health?
I admire his willingness to sacrifice his health until Bush can be ousted, but I do hope he takes care of himself. We lost Jim Henson that way...
