okay, so I haven't been here in a while ~ the RT has leaked over onto the EO?
bummer.
I stopped posting at the Table because every possible thread turned into a political debate.
For those of you who don't know, I sell primarily upscale & boutique clothing.
NO ONE needs what I sell.
They just want it.
IMHO, no one who needs help would reach out for it by e-mailing and eBay seller to reach into the generosity of her heart and send them a cute little boutique tee shirt to help put Christ in Christmas.
Republican, Democrat, whatever.

BIGPEEPA:
I would be happy to e-mail you her addy if your wife would like to reach out to her. Perhaps your wife can buy Donna something cute from Bloomies to help ease her pain and hardship.
Sorry, when I give it is to fulfill a need and it doesn't entail a trip to Nordstrom.
The 'dark skinned people' (I find that offensive, BTW) who clean up the mess are working, not asking if I will give them my perfume and makeup

This reminds me of my Sister-in-law. For years she has run to different churches with hard luck stories to get free turkeys,clothing and gifts for the kids,their kids the neighbors dog and what have you. For years her daughter and son have run up $800.00 to $1,000 light bills and cried for them to be paid,which they have been. But now the chickens are slowing coming home to roost. Her daughter is dying of cancer and her son is dying from all the drugs he's used for years. I think she has about used up the FREE Charity even though I'm sure shes still trying.

Wow,
Now we have panhandling on the information superhighway. Speaking of scams, the Nigerian scam has been slowed a little. One of the scammers has been caught here in Australia. I do not know if he is the original or just a copycat though.
