    You can only do it when someone is right behind you.

    Yep. She's even cooler online.

    No, she throws rocks at them.

    We give coats and gifts away to the kids in the tutoring program I'm involved in.

    i like stroking my ego for the holidays...

    i donated to Doctors Without Borders as part of a larger donation drive driven by another website I am a member of. We did rather well too, if anyone is interested check out http://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/r-atheism/ratheism

    i should add that this really has nothing to do with "the holidays" and more to do with helping those in need.

    I like this part of your post. I try to do a little extra at Christmas, but I try to spread a little love all through the year.

    Other than the standard Christmas for Kids Shoe Box Program, You've Been Gifted Program, Support a Family for Christmas (two families), Salvation Army Angel Giving Tree, Coats for Kids. I made a promise that every Salvation Army Bell Ringer I pass I will give $5.00. We also buy Gaint Eagle Gift Food Cards $25.00 each and sometimes when we see a family or older couple at the store ( that we think needs help) we hand them or the clerk one of the gift cards to pay for the bill. It cool to see their faces and their surprise that someone would do this.

    Guys, guys...it's not his (ETB) BLOOD daughter. Geez. His blood daughter steals from the Toys For Tots bins at Wal-Mart....he didn't tell you that part.

    This is a shocking admission from you, considering some of your post toward kids and others on here, glad to see that you are not really the way you portray yourself on here, you do have a heart.



    Very nice to hear there are still people that are willing to help others when they really need it during the holiday season.
    When have I ever posted anything negative about kids? 99% of what I post on here is in jest...I assumed everyone knew that.

    What I think is shocking is that RawDawginIt works at a Children's Hospital!!! Those kids must be terrified of him!

    I adopted a Veteran through our program at work, and ran a Secret Santa type donation drive to help out a young lady I know. She has had cancer and is afraid it may be back, her youngest daughter went in for her 3rd open heart surgery this month, and it's almost impossible for her to keep a job due to all the time needed to deal with health problems. The final donation # was around $1000, so that will help buy plenty of toys for the kids, and gift cards for her so she can get the essentials. A couple buddies and I also bought her everything she needed to cook a Thanksgiving dinner for her and her girls.

    I donate a gift at the QFM-96 "Toys for Ta-Ta's" drive. It is amazing how naked breasts put a person in the giving mood.

    I don't interact with the children, they are sick and i don't want their dirty germs.

    For three Thanksgivings I went to a local school and helped with their Giving Thanks Thanksgiving dinner they did. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Even though there were a few turds who would roll up in a 35K+ vehicle and get 10 dinners to go I still enjoyed it quite a bit for many of those who actually came in to eat. You could tell some people really needed that event to have a good good thanksgiving dinner.

    Of course, I did that before I got married. When I had told the wife that I enjoyed it, would like to do it again, and that should bring her kids to help out she said it probably wasnt a good idea to "waste our time" doing that...I am married now and cannot 'just waste my time doing things like that".


    I really do miss it quite a bit. It worked out perfectly getting there aroune 9-930, being there until whenever ya wanted to leave, probably around 2pm, and getting home in plenty of time for our stuff.


    What a bitch

    I really hope this whole "my wife is a controlling bitch" thing is an act.

    Unfortunately, No.

    I wish her team played on SNF or MNF later this year. I know when they did awhile back OF COURSE we watched it to the last play! Last night, AGAIN, she wants to go to bed and when i say I will come to bed after the game she flips out, telling me that some day I will realize that my wife is more important than football, and how she cannot believe that a game is more important than her'. She gets all pissy for whatever reason. Ask if we can at least watch it in bed, and she again gets pissy at me. EVEN THOUGH every other SNF or MNF we most times, unless it is a dog game, have it on while we go to bed. But....since it was my fav team we cannot watch it. When I bring up that we catered thanksgving around HER team on TV and was late to a Thanksiving party by 90 minutes she gets an even bigger attitude.

    Thavoice... Why are you still married to her? Honest question, not trolling.
  • Raw Dawgin' it
    lol this sounds like such bullshit man...either you're a fucking moron for staying with her or you like being degraded.

    I don't get it either. I know money can be an issue, but dude, you gotta get out man.

    Also I gave $2300 to the Ron Paul 2012 campaign. A Ron Paul election gives all Americans, not just the poor, the hope for a better tomorrow.
