Kindness Plug
As always, the words are those of the person who e-mailed me.
Ent,
I don't comment on your site but I do read it often and I wanted to thank you today for your story on Ryan White and what an idiot Huckabee is. I thought that you may be interested to know of a yearly fundraiser my school (Indiana University) does every year.
It is called IU Dance Marathon and 100% of all of the donations go to the Ryan White
Infectious Diseases Center at the Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis. This is the hospital where Ryan was treated and the center was established and is completely funded by IUDM donations.
Ryan's doctor still works there and comes to the marathon every year. The website is www.IUDM.org and the marathon is held around Halloween each year (but donations are collected all year). I just wanted you to know about this, if you ever want to do a kindness plug, feel free to mention this. Please do keep my name anonymous however, the attention
should go to Riley, not me!
Thank you,

Thanks for posting this.
As always it measn a lot to me and others affected by this.
Hard to beleive Ryan would have been 36.
Nicely done!
Oh don't worry about Huckabee, he has a snowball's chance in hell in getting the nomination. It will go to the cross-dressing, twice-divorced man whose children won't speak to him or the man who wears special underwear (and I bet a tin-foil hat to keep the aliens from reading his thoughts).
kory--do tell. The man who wears special underwear--McCain?
PP, you didn't know that Mormons wear special underwear? I'll link ya:

Thanks Kory.Guess I'm not up on the latest Mormon accessories00I was thinking more along the lines of Depends!
Ok here is my pet peeve. Hundreds of millions are raised for research. Is there any $$ for students who study this? Nope. Nada Zilch. Some of the 'newest' ideas come from us. It is endlessly frustrating to me...
Each of my books costs ~150 at least.

Wow.
We forget he would have grown up and continued to live his life.
F*ck-a-Bee is the snowball in hell. I'm sorry for swearing - am in such a rage, I can't see straight.
