So I made another purchase at Amazon.com and a screen pops up and asks me what charity I like? It says it will now donate a small fraction of any of my Amazon purchases to my charity of choice. That was very cool. I selected the GBF and Amazon said they would contact the GBF to start receiving the donations.

I was not aware of this program and spend a metric shit ton (I mean a few dollars here and there if my wife reads this) on Amazon. I will pick a good charity (not WWF).

Ha I'm the same in regards to the wife.

Thank you for the heads up I'll certainly be sending some funds the GBF way.

Done. Amazon's one of the few places I do online biz because of their basic rock-solid model. Thanks for the lead Team Sergeant. I love GBF's website FAQ's; tough question alot of "non-profits" wouldn't be happy to answer.

There in lies the difference between men and women .....

Women "go shopping," while men "buy shit."

They also have figured out "wife math." That's where they can tell you how much they saved...versus how much they spent.
