And yours. And you too - over there, yeah, you, over there in Pie Town, NM. I mean you - well, your money. Not to mention the closet liberal in Ann Arbor who reads this place because he was searching for pr0n, found Gun Pr0n and keeps coming back for more, even while his wife makes... http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/10/i_challenge_the.html http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/10/i_challenge_the.html Sun, 14 Oct 2007 07:16:16 -0600 Is it that time of year again? Where we put sibling rivalry aside and show the love?

And due to a pre-announcement, people are already showing interest in donating some beautiful handmade items to support Valour-IT (i.e. an award-winning, knitted baby blanket). It's really branching out this year! http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/10/i_challenge_the.html#comment-65560 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/10/i_challenge_the.html#comment-65560 Sun, 14 Oct 2007 07:56:47 -0600 Wow. Bravo to Rush for putting it to that kind of use!! And as I am up to my eyeballs in web design and planning for the Valour-IT auction, I'm insanely jealous! :P Btw, this auction is going to be amazing. A military wife has tapped into the network of Romance novel authors and landed a HUGE fish is going to be donating highly-sought-after, signed first editions of three of her (out of print) books. And under her encouragement, a number of other authors are expected to jump on the bandwagon. There is also a very, very special handmade quilt called "Fallen but not Forgotten" that is going to be auctioned. And there are a number of military-related books signed by the authors that are also lined up. It's going to be awesome! But yeah... nothing like that letter. Wow. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/10/i_challenge_the.html#comment-65559 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/10/i_challenge_the.html#comment-65559 Sun, 14 Oct 2007 07:52:31 -0600
