Ha. Freakin’. Ha. Verrrry funny, everyone. I was standing out there in the middle of the street … in the bitter cold … for about two hours with my arms slightly elevated to my sides … and NO ONE ELSE SHOWED UP. Thanks a lot! And on my lunch hour too! Maybe you get a good chuckle out of taking advantage of people like me. People who give and give and are always willing to lend …yes, a f*ckin HAND so that we may link ourselves across this great nation of ours in the name of some charity or whatever. But now? Now, I am going to think long and hard before getting involved. I’m learning that there are some who are quick to mock my generosity and gullibility. First, it was WEAR BIKE-SHORTS TO WORK DAY in support of breast cancer research, which I quickly and painfully realized is a tradition that does not exist. Nor does PUNCH-A-COP FOR BOSNIA. Maybe I’m to blame here. Maybe I just care too much and refuse to believe that anyone would joke and prank when it comes to being a good philanthropist. I hope you are all happy. I hope you had your laughs and snickers and guffaws at my expense. But it will take a lot more than that to keep me down!

P.S. – At this point I don’t know if this weekend’s STREAK-ACROSS-O’HARE-RUNWAY for Autism Research is legit or not. But I will be there. As promised.
