We get stacks and stacks of letters
We received the following comment for inclusion on the main page today:
To all participants, those affected by breast cancer in some form, donors, organizers of this site, and essential everyone who at least visits this site...We also had another (anonymous) pose request: "Upside down. Definitely upside down. Males are fascinated by the effects of gravity on boobies."Thank you! I know that those two words are not all that it takes to rid the world of cancer, or at least to find a cure, but it is actions like this and others that contribute to a whole: the goal of finding a cure.
They always attest that your vote counts in an election, that each and every vote counts. It does, just as much as each donation or each little action that anyone does to help. 500 votes in Florida made the difference, as much as each donation and picture does to this cause. Just think, in a matter of days, thousands of dollars are collected and all of the GORGEOUS pictures are shared for a common goal... all organized by a few selected group of extraordinary women. It does make a difference.
To all whom are involved, again I thank you... as I have done previously and am actively doing now, I'll make every attempt I can to support the efforts here, whether its by constantly plugging the site on my blog or scrounging up donations and donors.
Breast wishes,

And another great suggestion was to link local "Race for the Cure" sites in the sidebar. I'll be adding that section today. So if you're participating in a local event, or raising funds for one in your blog, let us know! We'll happily link you up...
There are also new pink ribbon photos posted to the photos pages today by Lisa, so check those out! And submit more pics!
We're less than $100 away now from raising $6K for Komen (current donation totals as of this posting are $6310.30). It's a new goal. Let's see if we can meet it, shall we?
UPDATE: Our "causes we all support" list in the sidebar was getting quite long, so I've trimmed it down a bit, and made a new page with the entire list.

Excerpt: Ok people, there are only 4 more days to donate to the 3rd Anual Boobie-Thon! Whether you donate $1.00 or $100.00, that's just one more dollar that we are closer to meeting our goal for Komen. So lets donate, donate, donate!!! / edit 1 / Cur...
