Good morning and happy Thursday, everyone! Thursday, of course, is Reminder Thursday here at the [livejournal.com profile] ljdq, and so we start off with the obligatory link to this week's quiz so that you can all play if you haven't already.

Up next, something different: Cancer. We at [livejournal.com profile] ljdq friggin' hate cancer. We want to kick it right in the nuts. A few years ago, [livejournal.com profile] angledge did a triathlon to raise money on behalf of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, and this year her fun-filled fiancee [livejournal.com profile] hotpantsgalore is doing the same. In honor of this, we're inviting any quizlings who can donate to this cause to do so, because it is worthy.

Now we know that not all of us are so solvent as to throw down a thousand big ones for a good cause. That's not the requirement. Donate what you can, if you can. And I know some of you are thinking, "Dudes, this earthquake just pasted Haiti, they need help too", and that's true; I worry that I might know people there at the now-pulverized UN compounds. Give wherever possible, however possible.

My personal incentive to all quizlings: if you donate to [livejournal.com profile] hotpantsgalore's fundraising page (located right here; read her blog as she documents her trials and tribulations, because it's funny), I will write you a personalized pun1, hand-crafted on the spot and dedicated to you. That's right, all puns, all the time, right here under this post. If you do donate, make sure you leave your LJ handle in the comment section at the end so we know who you are, and a pun will show itself as soon as I know about it.

So let it be written; so let it be done2.

1 Quality of puns not guaranteed. Some might cause internal bleeding and nausea. Consult your physician before applying.
2 In fact, I just donated right now, so I'm going to give myself a pun. "A-1 Steak Sauce has a number of offices that run 24/7, and their late shifts are manned by a number of clerks. To keep their staff happy, the company provides free steak dinners to all their evening personnel, but the late shifts find these dinners unsatisfying. After some negotiations with the unions, the company agreed to provide a large quantity of ham instead, discovering that many hams sate night clerks."3
3 I warned you, this wouldn't be pretty.
