Friend in need.

Thursday, August 1, 2013 by RedneckDude | Discussion: Community

Hey skinning community members!

 

Once again I have come to ask for help for a friend of ours who is in need.

We all realize that times are hard for everyone and not everyone can help. So please don't feel like I'm asking you to help if you are bad off yourselves.

 

I am, however asking that anyone who can, and wishes to, help Wizard1956 with a small donation, please PM him, or myself for more info.

 

He and his wife are both without income, any at all, and they are looking at eviction. Their rent will accrue a $30 late fee every 5th day that they're late. On day 10, the water gets cut off. They own the trailer, so even if the get evicted, they'll still have to pay lot rent until they can move the trailer. And trailer moving is expensive.

 They are very close friends of Mine and Lisa's, and we are trying to get our church to help, My inlaws are pledging some money, but in total, I need to help Wiz raise $281.00. I have asked my Pastor if we could hold a special offering, or maybe I could raffle off some of my tools, or something.

 

OK, all that said, I'm writing this because Wizard1956 feels badly, knowing that everyone has problems of their own, and that yall were so good to him a few winters ago. He can't bring himself to ask.

 

Ok guys, last time I did this I got bad comments and flack from disgruntled members. I am willing to risk that to help someone I call a best friend.

Anyone wishing to help, please do. Anyone not wishing or not able to help, please don't feel like you'll be judged if you don't. You won't.

Again, we all know that many people are in bad shape.

 

We all came together in the past to help Wiz, and Kona, and Uvah. I'm sure there have been more that this community has helped.

 

Again, please know that I'm only asking for help from those who can, and want to, and I don't mean to guilt anyone or anything like that.

Any flack can be directed at me...lol... .

 

Please PM me or Wizard1956 if you have questions.  Post here if you just wanna tell Wiz you'll send good thoughts, or whatever you might wanna say to him.

Someday, a thread is going to degrade into 'boob' pics like this and an angry woman is going to post her two cents by pasting an enormous schlong pic or some guy with a ridiculous bulge in his jeans and all you 'guys' are gonna be like 'EWW...GROSS' AND 'WTF?' 

Just sayin.

Bumpitty bump...bumpitty bump

A member needs help getting over a hump

 
Empty those pockets ...clear out that change
Help to keep Wiz down home on the range..
 
Raid that piggy bank, make piggy squeal..
Rupture that stubborn cookie jar seal..
 
Scoop up those pennies that fall to the floor
That rainy day's here, it's starting to pour.
 
The storm clouds hovering over Wizard's wee home
Can be driven back now that the seeds have been sown..
 
A Redneck came out of the woods in the night
He heard the call and acknowledged the plight ...
 
He put out the word across the whole earth
That one of our own was suffering a dearth..
 
Desperate times call for desperate measures
And we all can combine to help one of our treasures..
 
If a few bucks won't be missed in your week
Or maybe you can give your budget a tweak
To free up some coins that you won't bemoan
They will surely help Wiz to stay in his home.

Bad news on my end. Unfortunately I won't be able to do as I said. Pains me to say this but certain things didn't happen as they were supposed to and I find myself in somewhat of a bind. I'm truly sorry. I wanted to but....
