John's is a good cause... but if we needed to be subjected to an annual
arm
twisting, we could all go watch PBS.

Don, I'm not really sure of the context on what you mean, but
concerning "arm twisting"

I've never seen any "arm twisting" or "mafioso" tacticc used
concerning donating to charitable and other worthy organizations.

At least not in the USA.


Slight exaggeration......
how about nagging like an old woman??


What part of this was 'nagging', Don?

"My daughter is doing much better now than she was a year ago at this
time.
She's told much of her story, abbreviated, at her web site for the Susan
Komen Race for the Cure to be held in Richmond later on. Pictures of her
and family and last year's team are on the site.

Please take a moment, visit her site, and, if you're able, make a donation
(just click on "Support Renee"). She doesn't get any money, but that's the
way the page is!

I will match any donation made by members of the group before 1 April,
2007. That gives everyone about two weeks. Just forward to me a copy of
the
receipt from the foundation, and don't make an anonymous donation!

Thanks in advance for your generosity!

Ok... it actually was the Nightmare from Elm St who was leaning on me for a
contribution. You then jumped in and took his side.
This whole thing is getting distasteful........ time to let it die.
