Effective today our new fundraising coordinator is Wilson.
I've looked after it for quite a while and it's time for a change. I have witnessed you folks do incredible things for complete strangers. It's been an honor to be a small part of them. Any fundraiser requests can be sent to [email protected] or via IM. Also..thank you to everyone that tagged me in threads regarding potential fund raisers. Please continue to do so except tag Wilson. ![]() |

To say that you are on thin ice would be a vastly optimistic view of your current situation. The ice has melted. You are being supported by the surface tension of water.

Does Wilson know about this?

I OBJECT! I like Wilson and all but you’ve been my fundraising bottom bitch for ages George!

The duty of a patriot is to protect his nation from its government.

Good to know Wilson made it off the island and is a member here! Jk always cool to see what the community can do. From dogs that need a ride across the country to house being burned to the ground or flooded.

Words can not express our gratitude for the folks here, the Med. cruise and the time in Europe was the single greatest gift she had ever received. For those that didn't see the post in Team, she passed peacefully on May 7th. This place restored my faith in humanity during a dark time, I will be forever grateful. |

View Quote ![]() It is stories like yours that make me wish I had kept track of all the times our membership has stepped up. It would have made a great forum to remind us there are great people out there. |

I've thrown more than a few bucks, from time to time, exclusively on your vetting. So...Thank You.

Linda sees EVERY bit out of it Sir... your son carried her in his very being. If you believe in God than you know she is watching from above and likely helping to guide him. You no doubt heard her words in your heart and it helped make decisions that guided yours and his paths. Someday you will all be reunited. ![]() |

The potential for scams would not allow me to donate to strangers without the vetting provided here. I didn’t donate to everyone as I am a poors but did several times.

@Wilson check your PMs please.

Become prompt critical.

In an era of stress and anxiety, when the present seems unstable and the future unlikely, the natural response is to withdraw from reality, taking recourse in fantasies of the future or in modified visions of a half-imagined past.
