Kevin's [mini] big give

a tuesday night with no panera bread? oh no!

actually, i called almost 15 panera stores, as did liam hessian and jen byers, trying to get bread. we were going to go downtown tomorrow and hand our bread to homeless people, but now we have revised our plans.

tomorrow, i will be arriving downtown chicago at 4:42 PM with $50 worth of quarters, a video camera and a whole lot to learn. i will give $0.25 to 200 homeless men, women and children, talking to each of them to learn a little bit about what they have to say. this is to make up for all the times i have blown right by someone even when i had some money to spare.

think about it, though i'm sure it is dangerous, probably not the best use of my time, and $0.25 wont make that much of a difference to them, they have so much to say--but no one cares. i want to show them that someone cares.

so, if you are free and in search of your inner self (as the number of facebook notes tells me many are ;)), then come join me, liam, arjun and jen for some self discovery inspired by oprah!

(note: i'm pretty sure the ! is now part of her name. This spell check says 'Oprah' and 'Oprah.' are misspelled, but not 'Oprah!'

p.s.-- stay posted, more later

also, this reminds me of that one bumpersticker that says "keep your coins, i want change"
