“Maybe there is no Heaven. Or maybe this is all pure gibberish- a product of the demented imagination of a lazy drunken hillbilly with a heart full of hate who has found out a way to live out there where the real winds blow- to sleep late, have fun, get wild, drink whisky and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love and not getting arrested…”

I’ve seen a lot of talk lately in my online circles about how to teach children about the value of giving back. Some great suggestions have come up, like volunteering time at a soup kitchen, setting aside some allowance for donation, etc.
Last week I tried a new service that is a great way to teach kids around the time of their birthdays. GiftAround is a service to let you pick presents with your kids (for their birthday party) and have guests contribute to them (instead of getting a bunch of crap that nobody wants). The big teaching moment here is that you can set aside up to 25% of the contributions to go to a charity. I loved sitting down and looking through the list of kid-focused charities and choosing the one we all wanted. This was a great way to explain each of these non-profits, and letting my child decide where he wanted his money to go.
Highly recommended.
Look out for America Yeah. Friends from home making really nice music.
Oh yea and I saw that the President has a twitter so I got one too. Now you can read more useless information from me from time to time.
