First, drinkin' words:

Suggestions?

(Yes, I'm at home.  NOT at work drinking - that's, uh, frowned upon.)

McCain:  Rescue!  Fannie and Freddie = bad!  Obama knows and took $ from people who worked at F & F = bad! 

Obama: I've got to correct some of McCain's history - not surprisingly.  *snerk alert*

Woman's question:  How can we trust you?

Rogue's answer:  You can't, dumbass!

Obama:  Health care costs = crushing burden.  Economic imperative to do something about it.

 
Brokaw:  Obama doctrine!

Obama:  Moral obligations!

2008 Donors Choose Blogger Challenge

How would you like to make a difference in the life of a public school students?

For the second year in a row, Six Apart is participating in the DonorsChoose.org Blogger Challenge. The challenge runs all throughout the month of October, and we'd love for you to participate along with us. Just as we did last year, Six Apart is sponsoring the award for the bloggers who reach the most kids.

How It Works

1 comment

The Blogger Challenge is a friendly contest amongst bloggers to raise money for low-income public schools. Here's how it works: teachers from all over the country post items for which they would like funding, such as writing supplies for a journalism class, equipment for a science lab, or music instruments for a band class. Bloggers choose their favorite projects and link to their challenge page in a post or via a giving widget on their blog. The bloggers who raise the most money or reach the most kids will win an award.

Here's how you can participate:

• Go to the Donors Choose Blogger Challenge page and find a blogger's giving list you'd like to support.

or

• Set up your own challenge and let your readers know in a blog post or by installing the widget (it just takes a few clicks).

No matter which way you choose to participate, you should feel incredibly proud of yourself for helping to bring resources to students in struggling classrooms.

Donors Choose will announce the results in early November, and we'll reveal the winners of the Six Apart award for bloggers who reached the most students shortly thereafter.
