I didn't feel like starting a thread about it, but I thought it was incredibly cool that I was able to instantly donate money to the Red Cross Haiti earthquake relief effort by texting the word HAITI to 909-99. It donates ten bucks and puts it on your next phone bill. You can do it three times for any one phone user. Lazy do-goodery at its best. I encourage you all to do the same. (It beats simply ranting about what a crazy fvck Pat Robertson is, which I was tempted to do, but this parenthetical mention is more than that deserves.)

I guess I'm not that trusting....that is to text my money in hopes it reaches the right people.

The 909-99 is legitimate and goes to Red Cross (I had doubts too), but in general it is a good idea to investigate any online charity requests (or people in the street, calling, knocking on the door) before giving.

It takes training to breast-feed a baby??


:p

Hah!

Actually...yes it does. CP can attest to that.

I don't see how Theo can make a mistake... your nipples are far too hairy.

Never take financial advice from a website that can't count to 10.

One would think, but do we have any data on CP's nipple hirsuteness?

Apparently something got lost in the editing.

Here's the original article at Bankrate.com, and it has all 10 items. The one missing from the Fox site:
