Young, old, black, green, gay, Republican, gay Republicans -- we can all agree that dying of AIDS pretty much sucks. So this year, I'm gonna try and do a very small something about it.
As a participant in this year's AIDS Walk, I can burn as much foot leather as I like, but it does no one any good unless I'm walking for a reason. So support my lack of sloth -- and support the fight for conquering a disease that's infected 33 million people around the world, and taken far too many lives besides. Please, if you have ten or fifteen bucks to spare, stop by my pledge page and donate. I've set a fundraising goal of $100 -- which is four people donating $25, five people donating $20, ten people donating $10... Easy. Super easy. It's tax deductible and good for the thigh muscles. Plus, y'know, karma.
We could all use more karma.
Thus endeth the first -- and last -- time I'll ever hustle y'all for money. God bless America and parts of Canada. Amen. And thank you again!
