Local food banks need your help for Thanksgiving

Volunteers at Christian Outreach In Action of Long Beach serve turkey meals the day after Thanksgiving 2003.

Sorry Salvation Army. I don't know if you have kept up with current events, but there is a friggin economic catastrophe playing out now, equal to or worse to 1929, so the "middle class" cupboards are barer now than they were last year. Time for you to dig deep into the $1.5 billion you received from Joan Kroc and do this on your own.

Call Goldman Sachs. I hear they had a banner year.

The first two posters are jerks. Let those two Scrooges wallow in their pettiness-my household will be donating food this year.

Maybe they aren't jerks. Maybe they lost their jobs and/or homes this year.

Maybe they are middle class supporters via their taxes of everyone and everything and therefore have nothing extra to give.

Who are you to assume they are petty Scrooges? If you can afford to donate, great. You'll make someone happy and full.

Thanks for the canned beets, Adam.

Anyone know where one can volunteer to help serve the less fortunate? My family plans got changed and I want to do something worthwhile with the time off.

Family won't tell you where they're having Thanksgiving again, huh?

haha, sad. Not quite. Work schedules got changed.

Besides, I just track 'em using the GPS on the phones.
