I just got an e from Joss' assistant confirming him for a lovely fandom fundraiser for the Red Cross.
There's going to be an auction where you can bid for a 15 minute phone call from one of the writers/actors from the 'verse. Tim and Fury both signed on as well.
I'll post details once the site launches (no, I'm not the organizer, I'm just the girl with access to email addies).
Anywho, I thought it was a fantastic idea.
From the "Soccer is ::so:: a tough sport" file:
And unlucky Hamburg 96 player Chavdar Yankow had to have six stitches inserted in his todger after a reckless, um, tackle ripped it open. The 21-year-old suffered a three-inch gash during the 2-0 win over Frankfurt, but despite his shorts being "soaked with blood", Yankow soldiered on and even managed to score a goal.

Man, that's a genius prize.
todger
That's a new vocab word.
Also, in the Annals of Why Professional Athletes Wear Cups, Unless They Are Insane.
Um, do I want to know what a "todger" is?
It depends on the bidder, I imagine. I'm trying to imagine what I'd say.
"So, uh... how's the weather where you are? Yeah? Yeah, here too."

I'm sorry, am I reading this right? The man took a three inch gash in his JOHN THOMAS?????? And kept playing?
Um, that's not tough. That's crazy.
Also a good example of SERIOUSLY EFFED UP PRIORITIES.
Also, love that todger-man's name is "Yankow".
