The Home (Base) Stretch

As some of you already know, I'm participating in the Run To Home Base on Sunday, May 23rd. The race is a 5.6 mile run through Boston finishing at home plate in Fenway Park.

Each registrant is required to raise $1000 before May 16th to donate to Massachusetts General's Home Base Program. A program, by the way, that has personal significance and is committed to serving the needs of veterans with combat stress disorders and/or traumatic brain injury.

This is only time I've ever used this forum to ask for your help, dear readers. (And, to be honest, I still don't feel very comfortable doing it.)

I know funds are tight for everyone right now but if you're a regular reader and I've made you giggle -- even once -- please consider helping me reach my $1000 goal.

According to my incorrect status page, I currently stand at $625. (The reason it's wrong is because I sent a check totaling $215 made up of all the cash donations I received. So I'm really at $840.)

That leaves me $160 short, dear readers. $160. I need $160 by May 16th.

DONATION INFO:

I'd like to offer some much deserved gratitude to all those who have already donated: "Thank You!" Without you I wouldn't be so close.

But I'd also like to ask all of my readers who haven't donated, while typing on my knees, to ponder clicking on the link below and throwing 10 bucks my way to help me reach this goal instead of buying me a few beers next time you see me.

Our future hangovers will be thankful, too.
