"I stopped donating to Salvation Army when they went lib. Now I only donate to animal charities. The pups will appreciate any toy they’re given."

This Christmas, the Wife and I decided not to buy each other gifts, but give to our favorite charities.

I gave to the Gary Sinise Foundation for wounded warriors, and to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. I contribute to the ASPCA occasionally during the year when I see their heart-tugging promos on TV.

My Wife gave all to a local animal rescue that has a great reputation and we've rescued 2 wonderful little doggies through the years. I believe they are called "Adopt a Pet".

This Christmas was the most rewarding we've experienced in some time.

Wounded Warriors is a great charity. If I had extra monies, that’s a place I’d definitely look at. Our vets deserve so much more than they’ve gotten back for their sacrifices. All respect to every person who has ever worn the uniform.
