I hope that there are other organizations arranging a relief effort as well. Unless we were to get another truck donated, we will be unable to accept any donations. A huge thank you to all who made this effort possible.

If anyone can help at the truck tomorrow, please come by. We have had a lot of clothes donations and are sorting them to make it easier for the people in Alabama. Today was a better day, but we still have a lot of room left to fill.

Where are the donations? The trailer is virtually still empty. We have tomorrow and Saturday. This trailer cannot leave here empty. Please help. This is so important to so many people who have lost everything. Anything will help.

Please note, we have had to delete two of the locations. I apologize for any inconvenience, but organizing this project within a few day has been challenging. We are back down to four locations: Sports Mania at the beach, Co-Card on Southside Blvd., Lera Plastics on Zoo Parkway and the main location on Ft. Caroline Road. Thank you so much for your support.

We have added three additional drop off locations: Southside: Co-Card, 4540 Southside Blvd., Suite 803, Mandarin: Sports Mania, 11112-21 San Jose, Beaches: Sports Mania, 924 N. 3rd Street, Jax Beach. These locations will be accepting donations on Thursday and Friday from 10-7 at the Sports Mania Locations and 9-5 at the Co-Card location.

Maybe the Publix parking lot at Mandarin Rd. and San Jose would allow us to have a drop off point. We might even get some donations.

This is off the current subject, but here it is:
Nancy Pelosi, press conference, September 7, 2006:
[E]ven if [Osama bin Laden] is caught tomorrow, it is five years too late. He has done more damage the longer he has been out there. But, in fact, the damage that he has done ... Is done. And even to capture him now I don't think makes us any safer.
Nancy Pelosi, earlier today:
The death of Osama bin Laden marks the most significant development in our fight against al-Qaida. ... I salute President Obama, his national security team, Director Panetta, our men and women in the intelligence community and military, and other nations who supported this effort for their leadership in achieving this major accomplishment. ... [T]he death of Osama bin Laden is historic....

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??
If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets. It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists.
You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
