In Honor of Gerry's 45th, Mary's Meals...

[heISmyGspot]

WILL RECEIVE

[drum roll please]

$1,073.16!

WE KNOW, RIGHT?!

THAT'S HOW YOUR FANBASE ROLLS, BIGGUN!

CAN WE "HELP"?

NEVERRRRRRR! :-P Now stop distracting me, I have to finish the post!

ARE YE WEARING YOUR KILT?! You're killing me, Smalls! I SAID, "STOP DISTRACTING ME!"

THANK YOU! Now... where was I? Oh, yeah...

I created a card to go with the check. Here are pictures (sorry about the quality, I was in a rush):

Our gift to Gerry is our gift to Mary's Meals

The inside reads:

(I know it says $1,063.18. I had to redo it after the pic since I received an additional $10 yesterday, but you get the gist).

Here's the accounting (sorry it's not "pretty." I had to cut and paste from a .pdf and I don't have the time to "polish"). It was exciting to receive money from AROUND THE WAIRRRLD!
