Oh Yeah !! Nearly a whole day with only one post so I refresh with a joke and now we get all these great posts making my post look inane. Say, maybe that's my good deed for yesterday. Anyway, I know a chap who won't give a penny to any charity (and I've heard his friends and relatives call him names because he could "afford" to give) but who also makes an after dark visit every Xmas Eve to see the Mother Superior at the back door of Nazareth House, a local men's shelter, with an envelope that would choke a horse. No names, just a blessing. He took me once and swore me to secrecy because I am to carry out one final donation upon his death. Maybe you guys could comment on something that's bugging me. Should I reveal his secret upon that last donation ? Of course, I swore I'd never say a word, but... you know... it doesn't seem right.

Now, my uncle was an alcoholic and AA helped him turn around. He ran a business and furnished the upstairs with everything from a full kitchen to a pool table for the AA. Free grub, the works, for years. He just turned 82 and he still donates to the cause, even though he doesn't have a lot to give. Never was public that he did all that.
