I'm impressed...

The more I research the various charities, the one I am most singularly impressed with Doctors Without Borders.  You can donate to any charity you wish, of course, but I think you will be similarly impressed. Please take a few moments to read their blog. Thanx.

ezs note- When I ran across this piece yesterday - wow... - I was so flabbergasted by how big a pile this crap was. I had to reprint it, if only for the sheer hilarity this, uh, "tome" was.  And if you feel the need, please put something in the "comments" section below.  Have fun! Make fun at his expense!  (after all, he richly deserves it)
