I woke up my cousin Kenny (who had passed out on our recliner) in a unique way this evening. Reason? He told me that he had fallen asleep on one of his flights today and that a flight attendant had to shake him awake after everyone else had already stepped off of the plane. I was skeptical.

I’ve been pondering the ‘ask’ for nearly 24-hours and I’m compelled to ask my faithful readers… are we willing to make a fundraising push for World Hope’s continued efforts in Haiti?
