Humbled.

Seriously humbled by the outpouring of support for this cause.

The numbers are climbing, but we are not there yet...so please help.

To those of you who donated already: remember that you can get extra entries simply by posting about the contest. Simply post, and drop me a comment that you have done so...I am tracking entries like a SETI radio-telescope...guy. (remember, to have to have donated to get entry credit for posting) 

In addition, I have also been contacted by a couple of people who want to add to the prize list, that's in addition to the original prize list!! So I have added the first, and am working on the second...if this continues, there is going to be an even more serious pile to win.

Do you have a product you would like to donate to the contest? I will feature you or your store in the Contest Post if you want to donate a prize, simply contact me if you are interested. Think about it...you would be encouraging donations towards St. Baldrick's AND getting exposure for your store!! (Sorry, but I already have a hand-stamped jewelry donation, so I won't offer another, and sorry, no "adult products".)

I just have to thank some folks over at BurbMom.net, who have been actively advertising for the cause this week...you ladies deserve every bit of greatness you will surely achieve. Go see what a phenom site they have put together.

Who's gonna win my head? This is your chance to help some kids, get involved, and win a lot of stuff...let's do this thing.

I posted on FBook about your cause.As I said in my email, I'm going to keep posting on Twitter.

Do you dare to do a guest post on my blog this week...you can blog about it but you must say something that makes me laugh...as always.

In return, I will donate my boobies as a prize, because my blog has so much controversy boob controversy that I thought it would only be right for me to donate a night out with my boobs. They are nice. Really, they are. They haven't nursed anyone in 8 years and they are currently not in a romantic relationship.

Shoot. I just realized something...really...who is going to want my boobs? What else can I donate? How about a GREAT book? I have a few in mind. I'm a nerd. Let me know. It's that or the boobs.

I really need to stop. But truthfully, come over and guest post on my blog--if you dare? :)

Your head will be all over my Friday post. I would've have given it the spotlight today, but you can thank my 6 yr old and her new Mia Farrow bangs for that one! lol! Oh yes, we are talking straight up Frankenbangs...and she has 4 Irish dance performances starting today!!! Do you hear my brain seizing and preparing to explode? So uh yeah, tomorrow, it's all about you, my man.

I am so glad your contest is going so well. Anything in the name of fighting pediatric cancer is worth supporting.

Hey. Well, I am sad that I was unable to donate as we are going through a bankrupcty with our store closing...BUT I am a liveSTRONG advocate...about to open my own army. I have three cancer organizations that I started, and donate to St. Judes, as well as ACS. I be a broke butt...but I have been spreading the word about what you are doing and I am very proud as a survivor of you doing this!

I posted on my latest blog about my friend Jonanthan...a wonder kid who is a part of CancerClimber with me. I would love it if you would go to my page, click on the link and read his dad's blog about his son. Jonanthan has had a brain tumor for almost a year...they just recently had an MRI and found that the cancer has spread that chemo is not effective. He is the strongest kid I know and he has so much hope...I am going to send him your link today....

To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; to earn the approbation of honest citizens and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give of one's self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived - this is to have succeeded. - Emerson
