Date Is Set At March 28th, 2009

Hi everyone!
I'm using this blog as a contact point for everyone to be able to communicate with each other.
That can simply be done by leaving comments - those of you who wish so, can comment with each other back and forth.
As for me, I have no ulterior motives in this.
I have had people write me and tell me that they thought this was a scam (several of those) or that I am a nutcase - and a few other things.
My heart is pure in this - and apparently that came through and commented as such.

There is NO profit being made here, I am not asking for donations for my own personal use, I have not asked anyone for anything excepting for those that want to help out on the day of the party.
Channel 15 news got wind of the first party and wants to follow through with this one.
Although I really don't want the media involved with this, on the other hand, I do believe a bright spot in the daily depth and death of finanicial news might be a good thing.
I watch this stuff closely - my job is at stake as well as everyone else's.
Without going into all the negativity - we get enough of that - the good news is that this financial meltdown does have an ending to it, we will make it through this - though many in very undesirable conditions - and hopefully we can come out the other side without a lot of bitterness, hate, anger or eternal fear.

I want everyone to come. Everyone that wants to come - poor, rich, whatever - employed, unemployed - lost your home, about to lose your home, no fear of losing your home - if you have any inclination in being a part of this, your status should not be a factor.

Let's spark the ignition of hope into our community. The whole thing is a statement - not just a party (though I love parties!).

I will start emailing back everyone that has emailed me about wanting to be a part in whatever way - and everyone will get this URL.

If you like, in the comments, introduce yourself, who you are - where you're at - the human element must never be lost.
