when i’m without a fixed address (aka homeless) i’m free to roam the planet. today, i got a text from my facebook friend chris while i was waiting to tour a marshmallow farm in virginia.

my friend chris and his wife sheila started the nonprofit organization top box foods which helps bring fresh and affordable groceries into food deserts where getting groceries is difficult. this, by the way, is not a picture of chris. but this guy, working for top box foods, is just as much of a philanthro, filan, phyllothrop, good deed doer.
chris was excited because there is a possibility of a $65,000 grant from zipcar if top box foods would receive the most votes in the “communities with drive” contest. i voted immediately!

vote soon because this contest is over in just a few days! it’s easy, quick, free, and best of all you don’t have to say what party you are or have been to. just go to visit the “communities with drive” facebook page. or if you’d like more information about top box, go to topboxfoods.com.
in preparation for my marshmallow farm tour, i had filled the trunk of my car with chocolate and graham crackers. and that’s when i met facebook friend sharon hayden who is, just like my friend chris, a do good for others person. she was with her ward brett who had just participated in the special olympics law enforcement torch run. brett recently lost his father and has been blessed to be invited to live with sharon and her family. brett said he wants to be a christian movie star. i asked him that if he would he one day invite me to stay in his mansion so i could go to hollywood parties. sure, he said, as long as they were christian parties. don’t you think this would make a fine addition to his audition reel?
so, chris, i’m asking you with all my other friends–

my friend chris’s aunt eunice kennedy shriver started the special olympics program in 1968. sharon and brett are both fans of chris’ aunt. and this is a picture of chris.
brett, sharon, chris, thank you for the work you do to make the world just a little bit better for others!

brett, i got my party dress ready for when you get to hollywood! except i guess tom cruise is missing out on a chance to meet me.
