Parkinson's Unity Walk

I know I'm not much of a humanitarian, in fact, I don't like most people. But I do like a charming and hilarious gal named Bettina. Bettina was diagnosed with Parkinson's a couple of years ago, and well, it stinks.

So in the spirit of uniting, research, and a walk in the park, I have joined Team Bettina for the Parkinson's Unity Walk. The goal of Team Bettina is to raise $10,000 by the day of the walk, which is April 26. That's still a lot of time, but if you're reading this now, you clearly have some spare moments that you can use to click here, enter my name, and send a little dough. 100% of the proceeds go directly into researching the disease, which is more than you can say for most walks. I will be hounding you again, so better to give now than have me knocking on your door every day for a month and a half.

PS, find Bettina's blog linked to the right. It's good reading, I promise.
