Would you care to donate?~

Recommended Posts

:S


When did every freakin' business in town start thinking it was a good idea to ask me for MORE money than I just spent?? >:(



So far today I've been asked by the Jack-in-the-box clown (breakfast), the old guy with the eye-patch at Taco Bell (lunch), the tattooed pimple factory cashier at Walgreen, the dizzy blond with 9 pounds of jewelry in her face at the dry cleaners, the pissy grocery store clerk, and the hot braless redheaded clerk at Chevron...(I gave HER two bucks for...oh hell I don't remember, but it sounded like a good cause.:) :$)

I also question how much of this money actually makes it to the charity involved.

THAT is always a good question. It's interesting to look at the percentages that go for operating costs in many non-profits. We have an entire catalog of charities we may donate to through payroll deductions at my workplace. That's one of the items listed for each requester. :)
I know V and I do all of our expenses for the Leap for Lupus out of pocket each year, from web fees to postage to hiring a band and buying beer. Don't know if I'll be able to afford that after I retire. :D:)

There was a donation 'scam' down here a few years back that was spotlighted, the guy had a 20 person boiler room taking donations for the 'just say no' organization.

The donations tallied over 90% for him less than 10% for the cause...the 'scam' was he disclosed quite different numbers.

You just outted yourself on what it is that you do during the day.

My ex, the shop-a-holic that she was, didn't do THAT much running around town. Personally, I think she had her boyfriend do the shopping and just picked it up as she left his house.

It's a funny vision of you talking to a Jack-in-the-Box clown....probably trading jokes and squirting each other with seltzer bottles.
:D:D:D:D

My reality and yours are quite different.
I think we're all Bozos on this bus.
