Guilt: It’s Not Just for Catholics Anymore.

All of this death and destruction has left you feeling guilty for not doing more, hasn’t it? It’s ok, we’re all friends here, you can admit it. That’s the first step, after all.

Whether it’s in light of Katrina (who shall be here fore referred to as “That Bitch”) or because you’ve been “meaning toÖ” but didn’t know where to start, try these resources and find a way to get involved and give back to your community.

My life has rules and one of the most significant ones is this: “If you have a problem and you don’t do anything to fix it, you forfeit your right to bitch”.

Litter, vandals, loss of trees, medical epidemics, it’s easy enough to help – if you want to. Have a particular cause in mind but don’t know where to begin? Email me and I’ll figure it out for ya, because I love you that much. In the meantime, try one of these three for ideas and contact info:

    I’ll throw my two cents in by giving props to my favorite local volunteer organization Trees Atlanta.

    Can someone post the traffic stats from this site?
    Like how many pageviews or unique hits it gets in some timeframe?

    I mean, can’t we see our pool of volunteers?

    Daniel – any chance you can answer the question for the inquiring minds of the folks I work with?

    (C’mon, did you think I wouldn’t know?)
