[Battle Pope]

LESS THAN 25?! Well, I guess I'll have to do something about that. I'll get my routing numbers this week when I get my checks in the mail.

 

[Think]

Just threw in $20

Hey i'll try to throw some in but it'll probbly be towards the end of the month. Tonight i just went and spent 20 bucks on a bunch of toys for the Toys For Tots. That was my first priority cuz i feel worse for the little kids that dont get to have a christmas. Its gona be tight on cash this year but i'll try to put in a little.

hey what do you guys think about getting a blanket for a homeless guy. there's this homeless guy that sleeps at a bus stop by my house. i drive by late at night and feel bad cus he just sleeps out there in the cold everynight. we got blankets at work for 1/2 off right now and i was gonna get one. should i?

around christmas, or anytime for that matter, i would rather spend some $$ on someone who needs it rather than buyin stupid shit for myself.

a little bit from a lot of people goes a long way. 2-5 bucks is all i would like to see from people. if you can give a little more, thats great.

on the toys for tots deal. if you're doing stuff locally, thats cool too.

blanket- its kinda sketchy. some people don't want to be helped... and it could possibly turn into a situation. my suggestion would be to walk by, with the blanket already opened/unwrapped, and as you walk by offer it to him. if he refuses, just walk a couple more feet, turn, look at him, and put it down, and continue walking. i guarntee by the time you turn the next corner, hes gone and picked it up.

If the damn bank would get me my checks, I'd have 20 bucks for ya.

[Havok]

[posol]

[FFCiv]

no cds this year?

Ill donate when i get my next paycheck

 

[posol]

no cds cuz i lost all my music. fucking maxtor drives.

like you were gonna donate $50 anyway

anyway, you got 2 days. 22nd is my cut off.

doesn't look like its going ot be a good donation this year- but hey, anything is better than nothing. just kinda sad that out of 20,000 members, only 5 have dontated.

 

[90 accord]

i donated what i could.. i dont really have a job now, so money is in short supply..

 

[posol]

 

[Havok]

C'mon guys, the biggest asshole here donated (me), you better start giving 5's and 10's.

 

[YouKnowWhoIBee]

Dammit i just read it and i had to donate... i also did the cancer drive and i dont remember if i did last christmas or not. But you are right what is 5 bucks? It could help someone else in need ... but anyway my money is on the way. I will try for more tomorrow because i get my christmas bonus... so i will wait and see how much i can afford. Thanks again guys and i think it is cool what you guys are doing and anytime you need some cash for the needy come my way .

 

[posol]

cool! got two more today from you guys.

a couple more people to dontate over the next 24 hours, and we will have a decent fund going in

 

[brc80]

Come on you cheap bastards.

 

[posol]

last day to dontate. at midnight tonight, i'm closing the post, and putting in a request to paypal to withdrawl the funds to my checking account.

Thanks to all who dontated.
