Should a Black photographer etc. - Who gets the $$
Again thanks to everyone who took time to comment, send email, IMs and show me the love, you all really made my day. I posted on the original thread that her $200 fee would go to a charity and asked everyone to vote. Well it was so deep down on the thread that only 5 people saw it. So between now and 7pm CST tomorrow (Friday) you can vote for the charity of your choice. The charity with the most votes gets the check, no stuffing the ballot box, one per member. After all this is not the 2000 Presidential election in Florida!

Aug 10 06 07:18 pm Link Well my current favorite charitable group is the Heifer Organization (www.heifer.org), not that I expect anyone else to vote for it. Aug 10 06 08:23 pm Link Every year I donate $1000 to the Make-A-Wish foundation because I hate seeing kids robbed of life so early on. Donate there if you wish. Although someone in the post.. can't remember who and too lazy to look it up.. suggested giving $50 to random acts of kindness. I thought this was a cool idea. Someone holds the door for you. Someone says their please and thank you's. etc. Would make 4 people happy for using their heads.. unlike the model in question. -PKD Aug 11 06 03:19 am Link _Cinnamon_ wrote: I second that... feed the poor & the hungry...
