Help me raise money for charity!

Oh, I know and appreciate that Rico. It just seems like a great opportunity for families to do something together and wish the organizers could have done something more dynamic. But it's all good as long as the funds come in and maybe this kind of event does have an appeal to people who may otherwise not even try and help, so it's all good. :)

Yeah that was my point of view on this. People who would attend a "movie marathon for leukemia" are not the same people who would attend a "marathon for leukemia". Funny the difference on word makes.

Bryan i could see you doing an event where they put treadmills in the cinema and the faster you run the longer the film lasts ;)

Well, here's a picture from the movie marathon. Wish it was bigger. But if you look carefully you will see me dead center in the back (tall guy, white shirt). We raised about $31,000 dollars! Thanks again to those that donated to this worthy cause!

Yeah - it's steadily gone up in the years I have been doing it (since the start I think but maybe missed one year). Think we were around $18 - 20 K the first year.
