SkyVector (online charts and flight planning website) has TFRs plotted in a timely manner. No user action required.

skyvector.com

Other formats found he http://soaringdata.info/tfrs/tfrs.php, including .kml for Google Earth.

Yes, I use skyvector and like it a lot. For this particular case I was looking for more ground detail that the sectional chart in skyvector provides.

Default TFRs on Google Earth?

As GliderCZ pointed out, my website at http://www.soaringdata.info does this.

- Select the TFRs tab
- Follow the link to the query form
- Enter a center airport and a radius to define the area of interest
- select Google Earth KML format for the output

.... and download a KML file containing all the TFRs in the area that can be opened in Google Earth.

It is all free and freely redistributable.
