I agree with you that while at least it was an attempt, as soon as I heard about the "Idol Gives Back" thing, it seemed much more like a marketing gimmick than actual effort to do anything productive. When NewsCorp starts spending money that hurts a little to give up, and sends people to do something helpful, then I'll be impressed. This was more like throwing fourteen cents of spare change at a homeless person after calling the TV news crews in to film it for the six o'clock news.<BR/><BR/>Guess I'm a pessimist and a cynic.<BR/><BR/>Lovin' the stuff about your Dad, though! <I>That's</I> impressive and inspiring!<BR/><BR/>Kisses,<BR/>JanieBelleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26036687.post-38309871865641690802007-04-26T08:39:00.000-04:002007-04-26T08:39:00.000-04:00Bednets?
