Child's Play 2007 Gets Underway

It is well worth mentioning that a post by Tycho over on the Penny Arcade site signals the kickoff for Child's Play 2007. This year they have over 30 hospitals spread across five countries, and (as always) every little bit helps. From Mr. Brahe's post: "At the last Child's Play dinner, a man whose son was currently staying at Seattle Children's Hospital - he'd left him temporarily, to attend - literally could not produce the words to thank me. The depth of his appreciation bordered on anguish. I hardly knew how to respond, other than attribute those comforts to their true authors. The opportunity to be excellent has arisen again. Just as in years past, visit the site proper, choose your favorite hospital, and select your toy. We promise to let you know how incredible you are at regular intervals."

Best God Damn charity in the world

Scrape 20 bucks up and go buy something.
They keep nothing, the world volunteer, everything goes to the hospital.
Your charity will allow children in pain to laugh and forget.

Or empty that tub of change you have sitting in your room into a CoinStar counting machine and it can give you an amazon gift certificate on the spot with no coin counting fees.

These guys continually try to convince the world that they're assholes. They will tell you repeatedly what mean, horrible people they are, while at the same time donating $10,000 in Jack Thompson's name, creating a scholarship out of their pockets, and organizing this great charity where they pocket absolutely nothing.

Man, they suck at proving what horrible people they are.
