Default In Honor of Roadhog and The Rev...

I don't know if any of you have heard of this. It's a program called K.I.N.D. [Kids In Need of Desks]

Something Lawrence O'Donnell of MSNBC started in association with UNICEF.

UNICEF - Malawi - Children swap floors for desks at Malawi school with MSNBC-US Fund for UNICEF support

K.I.N.D.| msnbc.com

I've been interested in it for about a year now, and since my family doesn't "do" Christmas presents anymore, I chose this to be my "giving" this season.

I've got to call back to order desks in the name(s) of my parents and my siblings... but, tonight I bought ONE desk (seats two kids) in honor of a couple of CAD members. I can just SEE them sitting next to each other in class. :lol:

Really.... there should be NO implications drawn from my choices. Absolutely NO disrespect is intended to either of them. My reasons are my own.

But, there will be two kids who no longer have to sit on the floor to go to school because of Roadhog and The Rev.

Merry Christmas, y'all.

...is that what they call the "joy of giving?" :lol:
They not only have a nice blessing, but the seat of genius! :thumbsup:
Thank you Hobo for that gesture!

Merry Christmas!

I like this thread. Without getting into it, isn't this what Christmas is supposed to be about?

I'll deny it if you ever try and quote me, but you guys are alright.

Merry Christmas!

Think I slept through something, Hobo.. What was that???

So, you're saying it's a genuine human being that wrote all those volumes on CAD...
You're also telling us just who it has been that had the best influence on you. Not a bad pair of choices.

Post do-over.

I was asking for clarification and now I understand your post Windy. I just needed more coffee.
