Haven't been on here for a little while, but those of you that know me should recognize the schpiel!  :gap:

I'm raising money for St. Baldricks again, and calling on any and all of you that are willing to donate a couple of bucks to raise money to help cure childrens cancer.  Basically, I'm shaving my head in solidarity with children who are suffering from cancer as we speak.  I'm asking for pledges for me to get my haircut.  I'd like to make this the most expensive haircut I've ever gotten.  All proceeds from the pledges go to cancer treatment and reasearch for the various kinds of children's cancer. 

This year specifically, we're honoring a young boy named Cooper Anderson.  He is the son of a Reno Fire Department Operator, who has been diagnosed with a form of luekemia at the age of 6 years old.  He is in treatment, and doing well. 

If anyone would care to donate, or would like more information, feel free to post here, or check out stbaldricks.org.
Our specific event is www.stbaldricks.org/events/shamrockshave.  You can donate under my name, or to the event, all the money goes to the same place.  If you happen to be in Reno on St. Paddys day, feel free to swing by, have a few beers, and check out the event.

bumping it up, we've got a little less than a week left, and we're well on our way to our goal of 15000 dollars raised! 

Every little bit helps, St Baldricks is a great organization, and I strongly encourage you to contribute, even if its just a buck or two.  Every little bit helps. 

Thanks!
