We have certainly changed life in the Children, Incorporated office in Richmond, Virginia, as evidenced by their press release and this e-mail I received. (I hope someone visits the office and reports back.)

Barry,

Just wanted to share with you that this event has stirred up more excitement than one could ever imagine! Everyone is now glued to their computers following the blogs and as you had mentioned earlier…. It is fun and entertaining.

Again, we just cannot thank you enough!!

Marian

CI is very good with feedback and we will eventually get exact statements detailing how the money was spent. Often it is just for things like sleeping bags, clothing, and school supplies, but maybe there will be extra for a BBV playground somewhere.

I'm glad we are all able to share in the enjoyment of actually making a difference. Many people go through life without having this experience. This should provide extra incentive for all of us to do well, so we can make a difference whenever we hit it big in whatever we do.

I am now in debt to all of you. I will become the Charlotte's Web of poker as I utter cryptic messages on national TV. If I win an all-in pot in my NBC Heads-up match tomorrow against Carlos, I will say, "Ship it crucial," provided I can do it in a polite way.

I think these two quotes made me smile wider than I ever have before reading this website.

Gotta sneak a "BBV for life!" in there somewhere Barry!

For bonus points an "OOT sucks" would be great.

In all honesty Barry, the work you do for charity is very admirable. I, honestly, look up to you and how you've dedicated yourself to helping others.

I'm not just being a kiss-ass; I really mean that.

Barry you owe us nothing at all. We had an agreement and both parties honored that. The extra money is simply a sign of the huge generosity from the posters on this board.

But it truly would be awesome if you actually say "ship it crucial" to Carlos! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Then Carlos could reply with "LOL Donkaments!" and I would die a happy man...

this thread started sucking for a while and it seemed as though people were donating for the wrong reasons and wanted more from this than to hold up our end of an absoluridicuoas deal.

good to see that it's back on track and that BG has said he will do other things even though he doesn't have to. BG and 2+2 are both class acts IMO and we don't need a press release to prove that.

granted it would be nice for the world to know about our ballaness and to make more people aware of Children Inc. but that's not what this was all about and it's good to see we're back on track.
