This is an important charity so anything anyone can contribute is appreciated.
You see, the world's biggest star sapphire may be coming up for auction and is expected to sell for around $173 million
And screw diamonds, Beccs loves sapphires.
I know what you're up to!

I'll pledge a nickel to that. Hopefully, based on my substantial donation, you'll be able to attract more investors to make up for the remaining 177.999.999.95 $.

The only thing I've read by DFW is the book where his publisher sends him on a caribbean cruise to write a diary about it. The result is pretty hilarious.

Only a few pages in. It's quite understandably strange, perhaps even playfully kafkaesque in its execution.

We will be growing Carolina reaper peppers this year. They were rated as 2015's hottest pepper with a scoville heat unit starting at 1.5 million.
We grew them last year but when we moved, we had to give the bucket to our friend for safe keeping. We never saw the plant again. So we didn't get to try them.

No thank you on the reaper peppers. I like my taste buds, thankyouverymuch.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Beef ramen with sriracha sauce (aka cock sauce). Did you know that cock sauce is American? True story. There's a good documentary on it.
