Thank you. The DH's father was at Pearl Harbor on BB48, which was
sunk. He survived by climbing out of the water in his skivvies. The
Red Cross offered to sell him a blanket. The Salvation Army gave him
clothes and food.

Donate to the Salvation Army. We're still p*ssed at the Red Cross (and
it was worse after Katrina, IMHO).

OB: The DH's father loved long cooked grits, and I think of him every
time I cook them, God bless him.

To reply, replace "spaminator" with "cox"

Why not guilt all the Murderers .

Franklin Delano Roosevelt setup up Pearl Harbor .

The salvation army are pretty much the only charity that gets donations
from me anymore. :-)

Goodwill is too wasteful, Red Cross is over run by bureaucracy and I
have yet to see _any_ good works from United Way. All UW does in my area
is take badly needed money that should be used for _local_ programs.
They do squat for the poor and homeless in the towns where they collect
money. :-(

As an Aussie soldier, we 'grew up' with the Everyman (aka 'Sallyman').

On exercise, or on deployment overseas, the only ******* that ever had
the guts to come up and give us a cold drink in hot parts, and a hot
drink in cold parts..... was the Sallyman.

The only *******s you'll find at the sharp end are us, and the Sallyman.

The *only* 'charity' I donate to is the Salvation Army.
