Help Kids!

Also wanna put out there something I think's pretty awesome.  If anyone knows the comic/anthro artist LizardBeth or lizzie-bean; then you know of her work and for (to my knowledge) the 2nd or 3rd time she's doing the Extra Life Marathon for charity. 

Extra Life is a Gamer Inspired 24-hour gaming marathon for the Children's Miracle Network Charity in which gamers raise funds thru donations prior to and during their 24 hours of non-stop gaming.  Gamers usually stream their marathon and urge folks to donate.  It's like PBS but with gaming really!

Liz is doing again I think 2nd or 3rd year of it and this I know is the second year of her doing it with a team of friends known as the BPD Army.

Their team goal is $2,500.00 total for charity; though you can go well over that goal as well.  Wanna spread the word on it and I know if I find I have some extra cash after bill paying; i'll put something to them also.

Liz will be streaming her marathon on Nov. 2nd from 7am - 8am November 3rd.   You can get more info on Liz's personal stream and goal from her blog at http://lizzie-bean.com/extra-life/

It's a fun way to be part of something, it's apparently Tax Deductible, and compared to the re-runs and dry humor moments you watch on PBS with them always interrupting at the best parts;  Extra Life lets you watch gamers play various games and giggle at their deteriorating mental state as they get 20 hours into it.   And I'm sure gamer Sauvé folks can even connect with Liz on some games and play with!

Good deed and comedy for all!
