redemption?

ok so once a year i try to reconcile all the bad stuff i do the entire year by giving a bag of food to support my local radio station's campout for hunger. I stopped by after work yesterday and almost as soon as i get out of the car someone is there to take the bag of food. they are always pretty well setup. this year they had a big ass tent to shelter them from the wind and cold... previous years they kind of had a wall-less roof over their heads. the 2 dj's that host spend the night in an RV for a week and take donations from like 6am till about 10pm or so. i give the guys props for getting the community rallied to helping others. last year they got 76 tons of food donated... anyways after i did my civic duty i went next door to best buy and spent $120 on myself... no better way to help others than to make yourself happy right? more on what i bought later...

  • You can't be in the right frame of mind to give to others if you're left wanting, so I say help yourself first. ;)

    As far as the charity aspect, check my blog for that little rant. suffice it to say, you did just fine I'm sure.
