Yesterday morning the total contributions to the Susan G. Koman Breast
Cancer Foundation was less than $500. Right now it's within a dollar of being at $1100. Much of this came from the generosity of you guys, and we really appreciate it! If any of you still care to make a small donation, please do so. The web site is: [url] http://www.active.com/donate/varace4cure/JohnHerring By now, those of you who've contributed should have received a 'thank you' email from me, in addition to the receipt for your income tax. If I've let one slip, chew on me for a while. -- 'Til next time, John H ****************************************** ***** Have a Spectacular Day! ***** ****************************************** |

FL and there are no hillbillies here. We have just about everyone else, however. I heard a guy a few weeks ago say he was "fixin" to do something. It turned out that he was planning to go home up north. Dan |

That sounds a bit negative and John never used the word "friends". The bottom line is that he has set a realistic goal and there are enough people here to hit that number without missing a meal.
