It's the one thing I appreciate about facebook. Good ideas go viral, very quickly.

It seems like it is changing our culture.

My m-in-law was a pediatric oncology nurse for a major hospital in Boston. The nurses would volunteer to work at the Hole in the Wall camp in CT that Paul Newman sponsored for child cancer victims.

She said the camp was as much for the parents as the kids, as it gave them a respite, knowing their kids were having fun and well-cared for. A friend who had a child (age 2) with cancer told me that 70% of parents divorced when a child developed cancer, and it was over 90% if the child died.

Not to be a bummer, but can there be any better use of your salad dressing profits than to Newman's Own?

breeze. What an icon he was. He still lives on in all the good things he left for generations. Plus great movies. He really is sorely missed.

manage a little tiny store in upper Manhattan and Paul Newman used to come in looking for Ralph Lauren items for his wife. She said he was so natural, casual and unassuming...a hunk! He came in a lot and remembered her name. She was so thrilled and felt like collapsing after he left!

That's all I have to say, just wow.

I could not improve upon these words no matter how I would try.

Thank you very much for sharing.
