BAH! Humbug! Do I look like the fffing Bank of America?
For at least two months my mailbox has been flooded daily by requests for donations. The past couple weeks the incoming beg emails have doubled, tripled or more.
If I don't donate it seems the world will come crashing down around us. Sometimes I get up to a dozen emails a day from the same organization.
Everybody just has to have money to keep their web sites and blogs going. True a few ask only for $5. but others are a little more brazen and tell me that I can donate up to $2000 or whatever the legal limit! They make it look as though I should donate that $2000., however they will accept a lesser mount..........Scrooge!
I have 10 grandchildren and I happen to think they are a more worthy cause. They are getting my meager dollars! I am not buying a pile of cheap, poisonous Chinese made crap either. I am sticking with books (For the older ones) , building blocks (for the little ones), handcrafted Teddy Bears and quilts.
The books I buy will not be written by Granny Palin, Chicken George Bush, or any other political hack.
So....STFU with your begging emails. I don't have anything to donate and if I did you irritable bastards would be the last in line!
