Just a fyi about the Red Cross.
In 1964, after the Alaskan earthquake (9.2) the Red Cross was selling donuts and renting blankets that the military gave to them.
I sent a message through the Red Cross to my wife in KY that I was alive and not to worry. Here it is 2011 and she still hasn’t received the message.
I do NOT donate to the Red Cross in any way, shape, or form.
Does your wife know your alive? 8-)
Did your wife remarry?
