The Tornado's that tore through the mid west on Tuesday have left Americans in desperate straights and reminiscent of New Orleans, The government can't get it's shit together.
Our Bud MONKEYFISTER has a plea for help out and wants us Dirty Fucking Hippies to help out.
Go to his site linked above and find out what you can do to help.
Get on the horn and rouse everybody.
I am going to stop in the morning to check my bank balance and see what I can give.
BLOGSWARM THIS!!!
Glad to see you joining in. Looks like a lot of us have posts up.
ReplyDeleteOK.
ReplyDeleteHere's a rough update on the status of the Blog Swarm for Mid-South Tornado Relief...
I'm shocked, awed, and overwhelmed tonight!
At least a HUNDRED blogs from every aspect of the political spectrum have taken part in this swarm of goodness. I want to take a moment to thank Chuck Adkins, a blogger at the Town Hall Blog Community and other places for picking up my plea, and spreading it far and wide through the Conservative 'sphere. He's right-- this isn't about politics, but I had to somewhere.
It will be days before I get everyone thanked properly. But, I'm starting right now, and every day, I will post another set of Thank Yous, until either my fingers fall off and my eyes go blind, or I get to the end of the list. Let's hope for the latter.
In the past 24-hours, we raised between $13,000 (minimum) to somewhere in the neighborhood of $92,000 for the Mid-South Chapter of the American Red Cross and the Mid-South Chapter of United Way.
I thank each and every one of you who participated in this immense act of Kindness-- Bloggers and Donors alike. We made an enormous difference between HOPE and Despair today.
Damn, I'm proud of you all. I've never been so impressed and touched like this in my life. If there is a Statistician in the house, I'd LOVE for you to put the calipers on my numbers.
You can see how I derived this large range-spread at my place:

I don't think that I am far off.
PLEASE pass this around, as there is no way in hell that I can reach everyone who has participated in this action in any sensible way.
All of my love, and two scoops of IOU to each and every one of you.
Your Friend, Fan and Admirer,
