A friend's disaster... (please read)

Matrix

Around 2am sunday morning, our fellow MSLANer EvilDonkey's (Logan) house he was renting burnt to the ground along with everything in it. All he has are the clothes on his back. He had no renter's insurance, and literally has to start all over here.

My brother-in-law and I have started a fund to build donkey a brand new computer to replace the one that got burnt up in the fire, and we need any and all the help we can get.

We ask you, our fellow MSLANers and all friends to help. We know times are tight, but anything you have to give would be incredible, and will not go unnoticed.

Thanks to everyone in advance.

Striker and HughesDawg a few others, thank you guys so much for your generosity. We are over half way there!

It's tough to think about how it would be to loose so much until you have seen such loss so closely. If you have anything to spare guys, Logan would appreciate anything you can give. I mean even a $10 donation can buy 1GB of ram now-a-days.

Hey guys, because of all your generosity, we have reached our goals, and the parts for the new computer will be ordered tomorrow.

I have been incredibly impressed by you guys, and how you have just jumped in and picked up the slack.

Special thanks to...

Sure, our group loves to game, and pretty much do anything fun, but more than anything, we are a group of friends that have each other's back.
