Be kind to Humankind
Tuesday I went out and bought the digital camera in addition to a shredder (to take care of those credit card offers and the billions of checks that come attached to credit card statements) and the new Death Cab for Cutie cd. Since then I have been reading alot in the news and getting word from friends in Louisiana about the outcomes of Katrina. Now I am feeling a little guilty for spending $200 on something that I wanted but didn't really NEED (damn that whole needs and wants thing).
I am taking the camera back (it's the only item that wasn't opened). I am going to use the money to help with the relief effort. I also plan on donating some of my spare time to volunteer with Red Cross along with some other dancers from the Austin Swing Syndicate.
Have you recently bought something that you really didn't need. Think about the people that have lost EVERYTHING.
Ok, Now do something about it.

You rock!
I sent my cousin (who lost everything except 4 changes of clothing and his car) a Walmart gift card for $200 - exactly the price of your camera! My uncle said the only thing left of his (my cousin's) house is the pilings- wow.
