PLEASE HELP THE LITTLE ONES
As you may not know, I am involved with several charities. This to me is a particularly deserving cause and it has touched me quite deeply.
Mute Tourette's Syndrome has long been in the shadow of its more famous sister disease and although much rarer, is even more tragic in its consequences. While a child suffering from Tourette's has difficulty containing their anger and frustration resulting in spontaneous verbal eruptions, a child with Mute Tourette's cannot express itself in this fashion. There is however an answer. A great deal has been achieved by the Mute Tourette's Foundation using new art therapy techniques. But their work can only continue with our help. Just 50 cents will keep a child in crayons a for a day, and $2.50 will provide enough paper for a whole week. I hope you can help me and give your support. I've attached a picture of what the therapy can achieve, and I believe it will affect you as it did me. |

I'll let people google for the Foundation. It's so gauche to solicit funds on a bulletin board. I'm just trying to spread some awareness in my own small way.

Oh dinz. You were ever the softhearted, caring sort. I'll be sending my entire life savings. Which isn't really very much, actually, but you know - every little bit helps!

^^ Zennie, you are SO stingy. I happen to know that you have TWO kidneys. look into your (one) heart, and try to be more generous.

You mean, like set up a huge televised concert to raise awareness -
SWEARAID... and Bono could have a bunch of African kids come on and hold up the letters to spell out..B O L L O C K S and Laura Bush could be seen teaching some youngsters to write KNOB.. ...possibilities.... I'll have my people call your people....  |

Ze- Dinz's lawyer said he needs full credit in 12" Helvetica Neue Light Condensed Italic, a perdiem and blue and red only M&M's, and no guarantees that you won't be sued by the guy who emailed it to DINZ.
