[color=red]-time to help your fellow human beings again people!!! pay up. they need it.[/color]

[url]www.redcross.org[/url] - money

[url]www.secondharvest.org[/url] - food, clothes, etc.

If anyone has any other links worthy of donation, post them up, but i'd figure the Red Cross and SH are probably the two best.

Debit cards valued at $2,000 each that the Red Cross handed out to victims of the Katrina flooding in New Orleans so they might buy survival essentials are being used to buy luxury items in other cities. An employee at the Louis Vuitton boutique in the Lenox Square Mall in the tony Buckhead section of Atlanta said, "It doesn't say anything on the card other than alcohol, tobacco, and firearms cannot be purchased with it. There's nothing legally that prevents us from taking it, unfortunately." He said that two woman had used their cards to buy $800 signature handbags from the store.

^ is it lack of common sense? or just total disregard? i mean, they beg for help. they get help. they buy shit instead of essentials. can you sing along with me here: MORONS! MORONS! MORONS!
