 |
|
It is the time of year when we gather together with our famailies, give Thanks for everything we have and begin to think about helping those in need. I am looking for donations for the MN Special Olympics. Any amount is welcome and every little bit helps. What do I do for your donation -- On Feb 24th, 2006 at about 430pm I will be jumping into Lac Lavon, Burnsville MN in what is commonly called a Polar Plunge. Please let me know what you can donate. All donations are due on 24th Feb 06 before I plunge. Thank you and everyone have a Happy Holiday!

I would guess the shrink factor will be pretty high on that day. I'll pass. Maybe I'll come up with some cache instead. |

I'm not quite sure what you were trying to say but it sure paints a bad picture in my mind...

The previous message was copied from another thread. That thread was then closed and locked by SB.
