Help Sponser A Cross Country Drive to Las Vegas
Steve
I'm trying to pull together enough money to drive across the country
to Las Vegas from New Jersey. It's a 5000 mile drive, and I'm calling
on the google groups community to help me go on this trip.
If you have a couple of bucks to contribute to the trip, send your
donation to my Paypal address, click...@hotmail.com
I truly appreciate every contribution and I'll keep everyone posted on
how much I receive from now till August!
Thanks everybody!

Giving this guy money would just encourage more internet begging on Usenet.
So send your contributions to me instead.

back to New Jersey. It's about 2,500 miles each way.

Look at the guy's email address. "Clickdough"??? Does this sound
like the name of a moneygrubbing deadbeat scamartist to you? I did a
little checking and www.clickdough.com is a defunct multi level
marketting address...this guy has probably been begging and pyramid
scheming for a long time. Not to mention the 5000 mile distance
estimate from New Jersey to Vegas...LMAO!!!! Driving through Mexico on
the way are we? At least get your numbers straight before you post
something so stupid.

spell, and that it is not 5000 miles and that it is unlikely that anyone,
especially from a group called frugal living, would finance his vacation.
He told me he goes to a professional school in NJ "and let's leave it at
that". So, my guess is bartending school, dealer school, a vo-tech or a
massage school.

I know. I said I was paraphrasing, since shooting the guy seemed a
little extreme for this situation.

For the record, door to door and back to Las Vegas from Millington, NJ is
2513.87 miles so his estimate of 5,000 is really kind of accurate assuming
he has to come home sometime.
Now... What are you driving and what is your route? I missed the original
post.

Benny Binion might have done it. He once explained to the gaming

nigger I caught stealing whiskey"
I've been reading "the money and the power" some funny stuff about

Just to address some issues...I know that I mis-spelled "sponsor" in
the subject line...I didn't know that so many people were going to
call me out on it! A little careless typing thats all.
No, I do not own "clickdough.com"...if I did I would have a special
email address like dona...@clickdough.com, not a cheesy hotmail
address.
Another thing, the driving distance of 5,000 miles is the round trip
mileage to and from NJ. It's 2,500 miles each way, I calculated the
mileage for both ways.
Have some heart and help send me to Vegas!

Darn. I was willing to overlook that and just mail you a money order to pay
for the whole trip, until I realized you dont know how to use apostrophe's
either. Sorry, dude, Im afraid your out of luck.

Have a heart?
Hey, have a heart and send ME to Vegas why don't you?
Holy jumpin...I managed to keep my big pie hole shut until I read that line.
I want to go to Vegas too buddy. I work full time, I go to college, I'm a
wife, I'm a homeowner. Let me put it to you this way, a slow day for me,
would put you in a coma. Am I in here begging? No, I am not. I have a pickle
jar of loose change in an undisclosed location and that's paying for our
freaking trip to Vegas.
For the record, I do have a heart. I give to those organizations that I feel
are in NEED. Like the daughter of a co-worker, lost all her teeth due to
massive chemo and radiation before she was 3. She had a brain tumour BTW.
Now that she's nearly old enough for dental implants, it's going to cost
$25,000, and about $20,000 of it will not be covered. They're selling their
house because they're too proud to go begging for that money. Or another
co-worker, who makes an annual trip to Africa with a well respected aid
organization, I can't remember which one, and builds school houses and
hospitals for her vacation every year.
Good Lord buddy. Have a heart he says. Have a heart. I shake my head. You're
reading everything I wrote and giggling your silly ass off. You don't get
it. That's the very sad part.
Hey Doc, I found something sad!

Check out Kevin Phillips. He is a converted Republican commentator who
saw the light. His first book in his reborn state, "Wealth and
Democracy" is a classic, as is his second, "American Dynasty" about
the Bush family ties to the middle east, which tells us just why we
are there losing American lives and butchering the natives so that
Bush and his cronies can get richer and richer and richer.

renting). Its either going to be a dodge neon or a chevy cavalier.
Sponsorship will pay for gas and my gratitude...I figure that I will
need about $330 dollars to cover the round trip, if I can eek out 30
mpg.
I suppose if enough people donate and I raise a million dollars, there
will be media coverage. So far gross donations total 50 cents, so I'm
not sure if it looks like there will be much media coverage. Don't
call NBC or CBS yet. :0) But hey, if this takes off, you never know.

After a certain level of wealth has been amassed I believe there are
more sinister motivations that go beyond the purely material.

Waxhands,
Chipping in to help send someone you don't even know on a road trip is
worth it! I mean, I'm not asking for hundreds of dollars, just a
token to show your support of the trip. Even if you send a penny,
dime, or quarter via Paypal, it will be received with gratitude.
Thanks for your support!

I'm guessing you are a glass is half-empty kind of girl, huh?
What makes me shake my head is that you found the time in your
oh-so-busy, self-indulgent, christian-guilt-ridden day to respond with
such a load of crap. At least Steve's annoying posts were continually
optimistic.
You said - "I work full time, I go to college, I'm a wife, I'm a
homeowner."
My comment - While these statements seem quite impressive in a
sentence fragment, you and I both know these are simply half-truths
strung together for effect. I would venture to guess the following:
You either have a job where you get to do your 'schoolwork' while you
are on the clock or "college" to you means gettin' learned how to make
hair purty 2 nights week at the local cosmetology school. As far as
being a wife, what makes that task difficult? If you are complaining
about being married, perhaps you shouldn't be. Finally, you know you
do not pay all the bills nor the entire mortgage so being a homeowner
to you probably entails doing the dishes once a week and, maybe,
cleaning the shitters once a month. Your house is a complete mess and
your hubby is probably sick of trying to maintain it while you are out
saving the world.
You said - "Let me put it to you this way, a slow day for me, would
put you in a coma."
My comment - LOL.....LMFAO
You said - "Am I in here begging? No, I am not."
My comment - You said "Hey, have a heart and send ME to Vegas why
don't you?" Enough said.
You said - "I give to those organizations that I feel are in NEED.
Like the daughter of a co-worker, lost all her teeth due to massive
chemo and radiation before she was 3."
My comment - I was reading Forbes the other day and the listed "the
daughter of a co-worker" organization as the 3rd largest non-profit.
It came in right behind the "I'm not a bigot, I know someone who is
black" coalition. Stories of young children dealing with affliction
are truly heartbreaking. But, I'm certain your $25 contribution made
all the difference in the world.
You said - "Or another co-worker, who makes an annual trip to Africa
with a well respected aid organization, I can't remember which one,
and builds school houses and hospitals for her vacation every year."
My comment - Must've been a real whopper of a donation if you can't
remember the name of the organization. Did you write a check or did
you just slip her a few c-notes under the table? Why not just look
thru your cancelled checks and see which organization reaped the
benefits of your $20 tax-deductible dontation.
You said - "For the record, I do have a heart."
My comment - For the record, you may indeed have a heart, but only in
the physical sense. You have NO soul. You have NO spirit. You are
an angry and bitter women. Why? I have no idea. Just from reading
your post, I think you need to reasses your goals in life. Why are
you a full-time employee, college student, wife and homeowner? I get
the feeling that you resent everything you do. You think you are
doing all these great things to make the world a better place for
yourself and everyone you come in contact with. But, all you do is
spew venom and half-truths in a bitter attempt to prove your self
worth. If you can find the time during the day, you should step down
off your soapbox and look in the mirror.
Until then, keep making the world a better place.

That assumption would be incorrect. All the errors were deliberate. I'm just
