Friday Fun: Something a little different

Submitted by elmer on Fri, 09/01/2006 - 8:36am.

Yes, there are a bunch of fun videos I could include in this space, but I'm going for something else to ease those of us still at the wheel this Friday into the long weekend.

Our friend John Mayer is getting married on Sunday (September 3, 2006). His fiancée and soon to be spouse Jane McBride is president of Illinois Humane, an animal advocacy organization doing great work in Illinois and beyond (http://www.illinoishumane.org/). To help celebrate John and Jane's wedding, I thought teknoids out there might want to consider a donation to Illinois Humane, to help them help our furry friends. Illinois Humane's mailing address is: PO Box 3364, Springfield, IL 62708.

Disclaimer: Current pet count at the Masters household is 6 cats, 2 mice, and a betta fish named Friskie, so we're a bit pre-disposed to this cause:)

Thanks, and have a great long weekend.

Thanks Tom and the many others who sent well-wishes.

Just got back from Door County where I spent a restful week with my new
bride and my old dog (and no, I didn't get them mixed up) hiking through
state parks and visiting enough pottery 'n' quilt shops to last a
lifetime.

Fortunately, some rogue email/spam locked up my email account and I was
not able to view or respond to any emails for over a week.
Unfortunately, this results in two days of spam shovelling and "sorry, I
was away during your crisis" replies.

Regards,
John
