Guess who just made a donation to my team?



That's right. nod cool

The Family (2.0?) just made a generous donation to my team for the Animal Humane Society's Walk For Animals
(which happens this Saturday)! eyepop

*AND*

Our team (which includes CarrieMPLS, among a couple of other familiar .org faces) is the 12th biggest fundraiser for the entire event! woot!

I mention all these things, of course, because I realize many of you want to be part of this amazing zeitgeist. Being the nice guy I am, I don't want anyone feeling left out of this historic landslide victory, THEREFORE:

If you should feel so inclined to just click on the unwieldy-yet-functional link in my sig line and check out my schpiel, that would be mighty swell of ya. After all, to the animals in need that this organization helps, everybody is a star

And speaking of stars, a great big THANK YOU to everyone who has already clicked and donated. I've been really amazed at how many people have helped us out. You rawk! headbang

it goes to lots of services. yes, blankets and food is part of it. but also money will go to spaying and neutering strays that they take in, and it will go to classes for new pet owners (stuff like obedience courses, or classes that teach kids how to behave around a new pet, stuff like that), and just about anything else that a humane society does.

this isn't a radical animal rights activism group. the money doesn't go to crazy billboards and red paint to throw on fur coats. i mean, god bless those groups i guess, but the organization i'm walking for actually puts the money to use for actual services that benefit animals and pet owners, which is why i believe in it and want to raise money for them. nod

The walk is Saturday and we're all being forced to do the walk blindfolded while being prodded by special volunteers who will be dressed like pirates and will be prodding us with scabbards for the entirety of the walk, which is why we can't provide video footage.
