Stephen Lewis
So last night i saw a PSA* about AIDS in Africa that literally caused my jaw to drop. I was so moved by it that I decided to go to Africa to fight AIDS personally. I was drunk at the time, and am still kind of cut now (what the hell did I drink last night?). So today I went to the Stephen Lewis Foundation website ( the folks who sponsored the inspiring ad). What did I find there? Well, a whole lot about Stephen fucking Lewis. I don't really care about Stephen Lewis, nor should anyone. I care about the issue.
Bah, I'm just being cantankerous; I think I'm starting to sober up. Anyway, it's a good cause, so if you have extra money you should give it to them. But they don't actually help you go to Africa and do something. They have links to other organizations that do, so who knows? Maybe I'll go. It seems like the right thing to do. It probably beats working for a credit card company. But doesn't everything?

Dashie, I give my Ubermoney to Medecins Sans Frontieres. I figure that covers a whole buncha stuff.
Credit card company, huh? Now all of these women are going to call their credit card companies in hope that you answer.
You seem to be developing a harem. If you like, I will be the harem-mother and make sure they don't tear off each other's clothes fighting over you. "Girls, girls, there's plenty Dash to go around. Now, whose turn was it? Let's keep it orderly!"
I didn't know you worked for the devil. This changes everything.
For what it's worth, I don't work very hard. And no offense, ubermilf, but i find the idea of a virtual harem incredibly depressing.
I give my money to Mission Australia, which helps people in my local area.
I won't be calling my credit card company EVER. I'm sort of hoping they'll forget I exist. Besides which, if I did call them, I would probably end up talking to their 'call centre' in Calcutta or some bloody place.
You find something incredibly depressing? Really? How unusual.
I give my money to the alcohol industry....good, cheap charity for my sanity. Sounds shallow, but it works.
Are you kidding? That's one of Dash Bradley's favorite charities! Give til you puke, that's what I say.
I've been meaning to ask - how was Siberia?
Ha! Briliant! I bet the Charity organizations would make a lot more money selling booze than chocolate =)
Dash, I'm book tagging you. I bet you didn't see than coming. Now you can put that ancy English major to use.
1 How many books do you own?
2 What was the last book you bought?
3 What was the last book you read?
4 What 4 or 5 books mean a lot to you?
5 Who are you going to tag?
Chuck, you fucking bastard. You are making me work!
1. A lot. I buy used books on a whim, and I throw books around my apartment all the time. It is impossible to know, exactly.
2. Again, I couldn't tell you.
3. I am currently reading 'Ten Little Indians' by Sherman Alexie.
4. Uh... some books I like are 'Love Medicine' by Louise Erdrich, 'The Complete Short Stories of Flannery O'Connor' by Flannery O'Connor, shithead, 'White Teeth' by Zadie Smith, 'V for Vendetta' by Alan Moore
5. I ain't 'taggin' nobody. This was an unpleasant chore.
Oh, and the train will be reaching Siberia shortly.
Wow, I was kind of a jerk about that booktag thing. I don't know why I was so irritable, I'm not usually a mean drunk. Oh well, I've sobered up somewhat, so, sorry Chuck. I do appreciate you including me. I'm still not going to tag anyone else, though, as it's not hot.
