A note on the Amazon ads: I've chosen to display current events titles in the Amazon box. Unfortunately, Amazon appears to promote a disproportionate number of angry-left books. I have no power over it at this time. Rest assured, I'm still a conservative.

San Diego-area residents: A friend of mine, Sean Papiro, has leukemia. He's been through several rounds of chemotherapy and radiation in an attempt to treat it, and the treatments have been mostly unsuccessful. What he needs now is a bone-marrow transplant. Unfortunately, unlike blood-type matches, bone marrow is much more difficult to match.
So, this Sunday, November 10 at Fallbrook Presbyterian Church from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. there is a free bone marrow registry drive. Usually this sort of thing costs $60, but on Sunday it's free. All it requires is for them to draw a little blood. If you end up being the perfect blood-donor match (sorry gals, he already has a girlfriend, so there will be on "love" match with him for you), the transplant procedure is pretty tame (as those sort of things go).
I'll be there, and it be great if you could be too.
