And United way is singing the blues, at least here in Alaska.

The did the office donations drive, and everyone in our office asked the poor lady if UW gave to the boy scouts. She said no, and they said no. She said she's getting a lot of that.
(Its not her fault, she has a son who is a Scout, its just a job for her).

"And at one of our Monday night meetings, they decided that it would be real cool to sell popcorn in front of the ACLU...."

A big round of applause for these scouts. (If you are a true scout parent, you will know what action to make.) I am grateful my two boys are Cub Scouts and have their eyes set on Eagle.

$20 of that $28,000 came from the Stormhands' household. Glad I could help.
