57. Thank you.
I only had a few bucks to give myself. But that just exemplifies your earlier point that I'm so glad you raised and brought everything back into proper perspective for me.

I don't have extra money. Anything I give means I sacrifice something for myself in order to give away that money. There are people who desperately need money for potentially life and death issues. Those people should and will be the priority for my donations. The politicians have money to burn, apparently, so I'm not too worried about them at this point.
