Chat it up!
I came across this yesterday when I was downloading the new version of Windows Messenger.
Check it out! For ever conversation you have a portion of proceeds from the adds that appear on the MSN messenger will be donated to a campaign like an AIDS or MS foundation or to help stop climate change...you're going to talk anyway, why not help raise some cash in between the gabbing!?
Friends aren't on it? Tell them why they should download it too!

I'm baaaack
So it's been awhile since my last post, sorry, but finals tend to kill me and mush my brain to a point were drool becomes a task. BUT, now I'm back with some news about consumers making a difference.
Citigroup has promised to commit $50 billion in reduction of climate change over the next 50 years. They've also committed to reducing their own emissions %10 by 2011.
What does this prove? If consumers actually do care about an issue, business will too...we have the ability to make a difference!

Bill of Rights, thinner and trimmer
This is a repost from BuffaloPundit, but I laughed my ass off when I read it so I wanted to share it with the four of you who read this - which includes my aunt, her husband, and her two children. Enjoy!

A or B, both equal C?
For those of you who continuously say there is no difference between the Republican and Democratic Party, I say the votes scheduled and the bills passed offer ample proof to make you all a joke.
Now, I only have NY specific information, with the entire vote in "( )", but we can see a CLEAR difference:
Recent Senate Votes
U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Care, Katrina Recovery, and Iraq Accountability Appropriations Act, 2007 - Vote Agreed to (51-46, 3 Not Voting)

Wild Horse Protection Bill - Vote Passed (277-137, 18 Not Voting)
This House bill would prohibit the Bureau of Land Management from selling wild horses or burros to be slaughtered for commercial use.
