November 25, 2004SoupMan needs our help!
For the last year, David Timothy (a.k.a. the SoupMan) has spent 60 to 70 hours a week running a soup kitchen out of a van, serving up some 3,000 meals a month.
Read this article about him from Yahoo! News and visit his site.
You made a donation, right? No? Not to crassly lay down the guilt-smack on you or anything, but:
"The only day Timothy missed ladling up soup was when his wife died — as she slept in the early hours of Oct. 25, her 48th birthday. He went back to delivering meals the next day."
What have you (or I, admittedly) done for the homeless lately? We've been a lot more lax for a lot less pressing of reasons, I'd wager.
Okay, you just went back and made a donation, right? No? Still? Okay, I didn't want to have to bust out the big guns. You had your chance:
"...Timothy not only feeds the hungry but also finds toys for homeless children on their birthdays. For most of them, it's the only gift they receive."
In all seriousness, send SoupMan a couple of bucks. I donated the bill with President Grant on it, in case anybody is wondering whether or not I'd put my money where my mouth is.
