Message 1496805 - Posted: 28 Mar 2014, 20:16:38 UTC

I've been asked by 4 people to recreate this thread and maintain it so I will do so.

Hello friends...

I am deeply involved with the American Cancer Society and their Relay for Life which raises funds for Cancer Research.

I have lost friends and my wife lost several family members (including both her parents in the same year at age 12) to cancer. I have a life-long old friend fighting Metastatic Brain and Lung Cancer.

This event raises money that goes directly for local Cancer Research.

Last year I raised $2500 personally. This year I've raised $1935 already and have a personal goal of $2500.

I am asking that if you want to help me, please go to the link below and give. For people in the US it's tax deductible and it goes directly to the ACS.

or

I appreciate any and all assistance anyone is wishing to give.

Thank you.

Blurf............
My donation, though it may have been somewhat misdirected in it's initiation, was not misdirected in fact.

You are a most wonderful individual, and your cause serves me as well as any of yours. You are a friend, and you have done well.

I salute you, and I stand by my donation to your cause, whatever the initial reason may have been.

I am proud to be one of your sponsors, my friend.

As they say in the real world,

Meow, Blurf. You are simply meow.

Nothing was against the rules-I hid it out of frustration but I'm pastthat now. My community service needs to fulfill its destiny
