    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    And probably had no intention to make headlines doing it, either.

    God bless that wonderful man.

    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    I always read these stories and have these insane thoughts about the jar he kept the money in?
    The number of coin sleeves he needed to roll them?
    The shocks on the car as he loaded the coins into the car and what did he tell the bank teller when he brought them in?

    I do a little collecting - I fill in the blue coind books and would have loved to have a few days pouring thru a few piles!!

    And God bless all the cats he is helping and all the people working so hard to help them.

    He probably used a CoinStar or has an account at TD bank, which does free coin counting.

    I was amused his name is Rick Snyder.. that's also the name of Michigan's governor! (Who I HIGHLY doubt is doing anything to help feral cats.)
