Have you donated some money today? There's fundraisers all over the place! Surely you can spare a dollar. How about $10? I know the price of gas is through the roof -- but you have a car to put gas in! There are tens of thousands of people who have nothing but the clothes on their back. Nothing -- not even food and water. These people need help.

CatHouse Chat has posted a recipe (Winter Squash Soup) for donations -- EACH COMMENT GETS $5 for the American Red Cross. Folks, this one doesn't cost you a dime -- just go comment and that's five more dollars for relief. Go comment.

Phin is still auctioning a blog design for hurricane relief. Go and bid on a custom design and your money goes to help starving people AND you get a new blog design at the same time.

I am still offering matching donations. I think your donation will get multiplied by four if you donate, since I will match your donation, and then I'll pile all our donations together and get them matched by my employer. Total collected so far is only $50 (donated -- with matching, that's $400!). And if you don't trust me for some reason, donate on Samaritan's Purse donation page and then let NZ Bear know -- he's tracking donations for today's blog-o-thon.

Michele is auctioning a number of items on her blog, including some technical books. Dang, I wish I had thought of that earlier.
