Hey guys, I was thinking of making a donation in the name of Nopistons.com to a cherity of some sort. For that matter if you guys wanted to pitch in $5.00 or $10.00 or whatever you could do that.



The one that I had in mind was http://www.savethemanatee.org



I was gonna throw out $50.00, which would adopt a manatee or two, give us a picture and all that.



What do you guys think? Any other ideas?



Thanks!



DAMMIT! Finally fixed for ***** sake!

LOL last time I was out I almost bought pull tabs, drug the $20.00 out of my wallet and everything then I thought to myself, dude you aint got $20.00 to waste.



well we'll see if we get some more feedback up and I will stick a little button up, I'll just adopt the manatees if that is what we decide to do in either the name "the members of Nopistons.com" or "Nopistons.com" depending on what they will let us do.

I have two questions. What will the name be if we get to name it?



Do we get our money back if it dies?



But seriously I really really want in on this one!!

How about the "Banzai Needs a Bigger Turbo Fund"



Seriously I would want to see the charities expense ratio before I give. Lots of organizations only end up contributing 20% of the take to the actual charity
