I've been looking into fundraisers for schools lately and I haven't come up with a better idea yet. I do think it's sad that we need our kids to sell things. Yes, I said need. From the teachers and administrators I've spoken to the proceeds are going to mandatory things like floor mats and that big sign in front of schools that tell the parents much needed information. If the money was being used frivolously then I would be leading the charge to change that situation, but it's not.
Whilst out driving around I saw a billboard for a Police vs. Firefighter charity event. It was boxing, I've also seen them for basketball. I want to see one for "the dozens". For those of you not of the right age group dozens is a contest of slams and put downs, it's called dozens because after about twelve slams you might start hitting your opponent. Did you ever see a Dean Martin Celebrity Roast? Like that but not as nice.
Let's get some comics as half of the judges, the other half should be cops and firefighters so they can understand the inside jokes and technical jargon.
Some people can't laugh at themselves, they should not be in this game. Those that can should make some cash for some charity. Those two groups of people are the crazy ones that run towards the gunshots and run into burning buildings, those that can laugh at themselves would bond a little more doing this. Majorly have to make sure that the right people are in it, the wrong people would just cause problems for everyone. I can just imagine the assortment of donut, hydrant humper, zero, and hose jockey jokes.
