every year on my birthday i expect that you, the real red reporters will do the right thing and give me a present. this year i'm asking that you just a take a minute and go to your local food bank or drop in shelter and drop off a few canned goods, maybe some money and/or god forbid a little of your time. needless to say thanks to the overwhelming corporate greed in the US the poor are still with us. Despite the hopes of many (mostly white old men of my generation) most of these folks have not died or been deported. Please give a little will you? after all this is my 64th b-day...by this time next year i may be destitute, dead or deported.. please give what you can. thanks Yer Pal mads
