What are you getting for Christmas?

I know this is kinda early but I just want to ask everyone if they will consider buying one blanket or one pair of mitts or a hat to give to a homeless person this year. You don’t have to go and give it to them personally although I can attest that it really does give you satisfaction for the act. You can drop off clothes or blankets at any homeless shelter and trust me they are EVERYWHERE!!!

For the past two years I have been buying blankets for the homeless, 100 fleece blankets last year and the year before. This year I have been buying mitts and gloves from eBay and will be buying more. This is the help that I ask this year. So far I have 200 pairs of fleece gloves. I am NOT asking for money, just that you do this deed as well!

That’s a great idea. Last year the only present I got was the one I gave myself — I donated $250 to The Smile Train, enough to have one child’s cleft palate corrected.

What inspired me to do this is that every year at Christmas I go into debt to buy presents for family. The only thing is, nobody ever “needs” anything and very rarely is it appreciated. I know for a fact that anything you give to the homeless will be appreciated, especially at Christmas.

What i’m getting for Christmas… isn’t for young ears to hear. it’s got a red hole that you aim for after rubbing your pointy stick ever so gently. When done successfully there are screams of “oh yes! oh god yes!” Alright, i guess i’ll tell you all what i’m going to get. A dart board! What else could possibly fit that discription?

You know waht i meant with that original comment, right? lol. stuff can sound so dirty but be completely clean. Like in court for example.
Have you looked through her briefs?
He is one hard judge!
Counselor, let’s do it in chambers.
Her attorney withdrew at the last minute.
Is it a penal offense?
Better leave the handcuffs on.
For $200 an hour, she better be good!
Can you get him to drop his suit?
The judge gave her the stiffest one he could.
Think you can get me off?
