  • Dropping off more supplies to rural TN (4 trips in total). They've been through a lot but these tough old Hillbillies keep on going.
    Big thanks to my current supporters that helped with this.
    I'm currently not taking any more donations, We've enough for several more runs for now. Should this change I will keep you updated.

    *UPDATE* Big thanks to my current supporters that helped with this. I'm currently not taking any more donations, we've enough for several more runs for now. Should this change I will keep you updated. I've run 5 car loads to various towns. I took video of the areas affected. It's rough up there but let me tell you these people are TOUGH. I'm just the shopper and delivery guy, it's you all donating that's making the difference so THANK YOU! Receipts and goods posted on betterbachelor.locals.com. 100% of ANY funds I received this week are going to them, no need to earmark them as donations.

    This tough to watch... I lost everything in floods in 2010 in QLD Australia... it is not just the smell and stuff you just can't clean or keep... but it is a few weeks later when it hits you... esp. if you are displaced from your home, or pets are missing... the govt. and insurers don't seem to care... Economically, it set me back and have still not recovered. I am thinking of all those caught up in this... Great work Joker, we need to look after each other, because good people always do... If you see a politician with his boots covered in mud, sleeves rolled up and no-one taking his picture, vote for that guy...

    These people know how to do things. They are a community. There is nothing wrong with admitting that a man has 4 to 10 times the muscle strength of a woman and acting accordingly. We women can get things done, but too slowly in a crisis. The men step in and lend their strength. We keep them going. No problem, it works. So glad you were able to go in and help.
