The muffler on my car was dangling more than it should, and it was making a rather annoying noise. I brought it back to the muffler place I had taken it to the year before (to have the muffler replaced). I purposely opened my eyes wider, smiled a lot and dropped my voice a bit and said "Hi... you probably don't remember me, but I was in here last year..." and lo and behold, the guy DID remember me and fixed the muffler on my car in a matter of minutes while the waiting room full of really tired, frustrated looking people shot daggers through me. It was a fun little experiment that I haven't dared repeat.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01015442439562633822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668957788371173816.post-79899030155878714552007-09-06T14:30:00.000-07:002007-09-06T14:30:00.000-07:00I brought cookies to my son's school today, to the...I brought cookies to my son's school today, to the principal and the teachers who helped find him yesterday when he was on the wrong bus and lost in our city. I don't know if that really counts as doing something out of the goodness of my heart though -- I am so grateful that he was found safely.

Today, I have to fast b/c I'm having my first-ever colonoscopy tomorrow. My plan was to let people know what it is like to go through the prep today, and then tomorrow to explain what the procedure is like. I'm not sure if this is truly philanthropy but my idea was that I want to ask my readers to talk to their moms, dads and other loved ones about getting a colonoscopy and perhaps helping them avoid the horrendous agony and hell of colorectal cancer that killed my dad.Fairly Odd Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11974404093257620566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668957788371173816.post-82760430283881737812007-09-06T09:11:00.000-07:002007-09-06T09:11:00.000-07:00Today I dropped off some supplies for my daughter'...Today I dropped off some supplies for my daughter's preschool class. I not only picked up the things she needed to bring in but I doubled and sometimes tripled what the teacher asked for. Her class is in the public school and is a combination of Head Start, Special Needs, and Universal Preschool kids. I know that some of them won't be able to bring in the more expensive items and most likely the teacher will cover what is needed out of her own pocket. She did not make any thing on the supply list mandatory. Teachers do not make nearly the money they should and my Philanthropy Thursdays are going to theme around giving to the public schools.Crystal Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15725086250676773592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1668957788371173816.post-68535881019690416322007-09-06T08:35:00.000-07:002007-09-06T08:35:00.000-07:00Jessum Petes Jen, I am completely at a loss that y...Jessum Petes Jen, I am completely at a loss that you have just figured this out.
