I totally agree with your points.

Also, if you're not on facebook, you should join and then look up animal welfare organizations in your area and post on their pages. Sometimes people need to be hit over the head in order for them to realize how dire things are for some folks. My hunch is that if you put out a request on FB, you will receive ideas and suggestions from the organizations and people who follow on facebook, and hopefully people can help out. Pets are taking a huge hit in this economy.

Asking for help is not a sign of weakness, particulary when it becomes a matter of survival. And, when you survive this, some day down the road you will be able to help out others in a similar position.

I really hate that not many people could afford the gas for the rally. But the speakers were really good. I am so glad that channel 9 tracked down Bev and at least ask her what she would do to help. She said I will sign a stand alone bill the second it is on my desk. The Pubs not willing to do that.

That is the same answer Perdue always gives. What will she do to help now? No one will budge. How many people were at the rally?

I just emailed Chris Matthews and Anderson Cooper again for help.

I am so glad that channel 9 tracked down Bev and at least ask her what she would do to help. She said I will sign a stand alone bill the second it is on my desk.

I emailed Thom Tillis and asked him if he was an honorable man and would he even answer my questions honestly without political rhetoric. He never answers me.

I would say about 20 to 25 . But the most important thing was that there was A lot of media. WSOC included.

We haven't gotten our invicition notice yet. Hopefully the landlord had a change of heart or at least he maybe busy with other things.
