It is a nice idea...Food for a food pantry. $ donations to charities...doesn't have to be big bucks, or big ticket items, every $ counts.

I am already giving, as I signed up to give more every paycheck to the united way this year. That's going to be my donations right there. Anything more and they will need to set up a charity for me. I selected a veteran's charity and the make a wish foundation to get my money instead of letting them give it to the methadone clinic.

I'll still give a few bags of litter for the animals, Steve. You just have to remind me to bring some when I see you.

Yup, I am turning over a new leaf!


Plus, I went around and delivered food baskets to "needy" people last week.

Well, we did it while we were working. The food baskets were from the PD and the housing authority. The "needy families" were selected by the housing authority. The food baskets were pretty nice too.

Funny (or sad) part was when we went to one of the apartments to give a basket and when they opened the door, it was like when Cheech Marin opened the window to his car

So, not wanting any BS at this point, we just give them the basket and leave. These people must LOVE the USA!!!

Free apartment, free heat, no work and when you get stoned, a police man shows up and gives you a giant box of food!

What's this world coming to???
