That time of year again!

That's right folks, it's time to support your super cool gaming charity, Child's Play.

Let's not forget, I truly hate Penny Arcade but not because they're evil or anything. I just think they suck. To each his own.

BUT! No one can fault people who set up such an amazing out reach to kids who are in need of some serious joy, if only for a few minutes a day.

Seriously, you can give joy. Think about it for a second. Think about seeing your mom and dad cry when the doctor talks to them. Hearing them fight over money for your treatments, blame each other, family chaos. Your brother and sister hate you because your parents' lives suddenly revolve around you.

You're stuck in the hospital for the holidays, and though a nurse gave you a bit of turkey and a bit of cheesecake for a treat, Christmas is going to be stuck here, not at home with your friends.

Then someone you don't know, and will never see, reaches out and for a few measly dollars that is the equivalent to 2 lunch specials at McDonalds, hands you a way to take your mind off of all that and just truly enjoy for a few moments.

That's right people. Quit being so selfish and give it up to someone else this year.

Other good places are :
St Judes
Heifer
Kiva
Donate blood
and finally, just Volunteer

Your lives are way better then more then half of the worlds population. Go through every miserable little broken nail and fast food joint line being to long for your impatient ass knowing that. Be grateful. And then give something to someone else. It may not make you feel better, but no one cares how you feel. =) Oki, maybe I do, but don't go around telling everyone that!

Merry Christmas everyone.
