Sunday, May 20, 2012 10:05:44 AM Solvent, I'm sure what you do everyday makes the world better? No? You just troll on the internet? Oh, Ok. I've seen the dark underbelly of the U.K., where Bobbies (Cops) are afraid to go into Muslim areas. |

Friday, May 18, 2012 3:28:20 PM solvent, im all for incentivising people to stop being so dependant of others, but this helps poor kids and families have clean warm clothes, instead of wearing the same hand-me-downs year after year, not to mention it reminds them that some of society does care about them. Sounds like you would be surprised if you saw what this means to some of the people this helps. Please trust me |

Friday, May 18, 2012 1:37:51 PM An elderly gentleman feels the icy gaze of death turn toward him in his last years, and after a lifetime of horrible, twisted deeds, he thinks this one gesture will save his soul from the fiery pits of eternal damnation? I'm totally kidding. Well done sir. |

Friday, May 18, 2012 11:41:31 AM Not very efficient use of charity, but...better than nothing! Hopefully the charities can use the video games, shower rods, memory cards, and Martha Stewart rakes. |
