Title: Sending good vibes to Louisiana and Alabama
Post by: wellfleet on Aug 30, 2005, 09:40 PM
i'm usually pretty self-involved but i swear my heart goes out to all those poor people in louisiana, alabama and mississippi. can we all think some good thoughts and send 'em their way?
also, i had an idea but i will defer to the elders of this forum. i have the MMJ Gold Hole 7". It's a 500-piece, ltd. edition pressing. what if we set up an auction right here and the winner's money would go to a Katrina relief-related charity we all decide on? thoughts?

I can't begin to imagine how those poor people must be feeling. To lose your home or worse still a loved one because you couldn't leave town...
I've been watching the news all morning & it's the looting that makes me sick! That's one of the lowest things I've ever seen in my life.

there's a special place in hell for the looters. i saw these people try and walk back into their not-completely-destroyed house and someone had broken in and taken the TV and the computer... these were already pretty poor people. i don't get it. you're all in the same boat (literally!). and that man who had to let go of his wife's hand and he can't find her so she's probably dead... i just cried and cried...

Me too. Love and all good wishes to everyone affected. I've seen some heartbreaking stories on the news. Awful.

A generous idea, wellfleet (not bad for somebody who's self involved  ;))
