Redeem Yourself Locally

November is American Diabetes Month. (Don't worry - I just found this out myself.)

To do my bit in helping to spread awareness I thought I'd share with you several things:
  • In case you were wondering, Wilfred Brimley does not speak for the entire diabetic population. Go ahead, Type 2’s, take him, he’s yours. Us Type 1’s will get our own spokesperson. I'm not sure who but it will be someone other than Brett Michaels.
  • The Bible does not have a cure.
  • After you’re done saving your Eastside Marketplace register receipts for that free turkey make sure you send your receipts to the ADA’s Providence office. Once they have amassed receipts totaling $2500 the Eastside Marketplace will donate 1% of the total to the ADA. What could be easier? Here’s their address:

American Diabetes Association
222 Richmond St.
Suite 204
Providence, RI, 02903

And if you're not from RI but are still interested in helping out you can always go here
for more information on local activities, etc.


(Note: I have no idea what the deal is with the font style/size variation going on here.)
