Going to go with World Central Kitchen
For those unfamiliar, they provide food for victims and workers of natural disasters around the world. Thanks for the donation and organizing the draft. It’s been fun.
Thanks @krista4 for handling the topics and judging
Hey now that's a cool surprise. My favorite charity around the holidays is Father Joe's. I like instant gratification for the needy. Muchas gracias. I'll match it times 5.krista4 said:THIRD PLACE
Congrats to ... and @Chaos Commish!
It's Christmas week, so instead of dividing stuff up, I'll send $100 to each of your charities. Please indicate where you want the $ to go.

Li'l note. In the 90s the company I worked for bought 100 turkeys for Thanksgiving and we served the homeless for Father Joe (rip). It was just a soup kitchen using a church rec center for seating and providing shelter for about 100 homeless. Now they house over 2500 people, over 100 families in "dignified" dormitory setups. There's free medical care and a small clinic. Career/job skills training. Drug rehab. A massive childcare center. Well done Father Joe and those who continued his legacy.
Also, I had the honor of being destroyed in the post by Junior Seau playing a little 3on3 after the food was removed from the 1/2 basketball court where we dished out the plates.
Kudos to you, Chaos. I'll disclose: I voted for your playlist. I found it perfect. The Lord Huron song, as I wrote k4 when I voted, was the one I didn't know, and it was achingly beautiful.Hey now that's a cool surprise. My favorite charity around the holidays is Father Joe's.

Big, big public thanks to krista for organizing and all the work she's putting in.
Also thanks to commish @Captain Cranks for his organization and generosity. It's a fine thing y'all are doing. I really appreciate it.
I agree with your praise of Cranks's idea and implementation, not to mention his generosity. It's such a great thing, and I don't mean that lightly. In fact, I'm always embarrassed even giving thanks, so it has to mean something to me for me to publicly laud someone.I appreciate this and other comments but feel like I'm garnering more than my fair share of praise. This is Captain Cranks's idea and baby, and he puts together the draft orders and the spreadsheets. In addition, he's the one giving the biggest donation each time. I haven't done much in comparison.
Imagine trying to explain emo to aliens!Anyway, enough emoting on my end.
I was going to ask if this was possible, but then I remember my friend used to call me a "big ball of id," and I don't think it was a compliment, so I'll refrain from saying anything. I would mean it as a compliment. Perhaps it's a sophisticated id?when i can once again post without my id growling
OMG - I feel a krista-like rant coming on. Doesn't anybody read my posts (music picks)??!!Kudos to you, Chaos. I'll disclose: I voted for your playlist. I found it perfect. The Lord Huron song, as I wrote k4 when I voted, was the one I didn't know, and it was achingly beautiful.
I'm thrilled to hear you'll be matching the charitable contribution times five. That's just generous and wonderful.
Sorry, KP. Have you picked that in the past? I'm scared to ask.OMG - I feel a krista-like rant coming on. Doesn't anybody read my posts (music picks)??!!
Congrats to the winners! Great playlists all around.
Yeah. That album is one of my faves of the last 10 years or so. I think I took 4-5 songs from it in the year long draft.Sorry, KP. Have you picked that in the past? I'm scared to ask.
If this is about the laugh emoji, I'm with ya. I can't think of a more illogical decision and it makes me think he's protecting certain people. It's certainly not because he's afraid to use the ban hammer on the rest of us.Good luck in CMD3 and its worthy subject. when i can once again post without my id growling about what indignities we must suffer to enjoy each other's company, i will rejoin you. til next & Happy Holidays!
@Ilov80s, @Mister CIA, @Getzlaf15 and @Chaos Commish
Awesome. I didn't know that it's one of your faves. I don't participate in the year-long or year-ending ones, except for 2018, I think. I also just have certain memory lapses.Yeah. That album is one of my faves of the last 10 years or so. I think I took 4-5 songs from it in the year long draft.
Overall just busting balls. It's a gorgeous song, and I really don't care how people are introduced to it.
You weren't in Genrepolooza4 ?Awesome. I didn't know that it's one of your faves. I don't participate in the year-long or year-ending ones, except for 2018, I think. I also just have certain memory lapses.
I knew or figured you were teasing and weren't hurt. That was a really good song. Cool stuff.
Oh yeah, I was. Whoops. I thought you meant year-end, not G4. Oh well. I'm a clod. Heh.You weren't in Genrepolooza4 ?
You were also in the Desert Island Discs draft for the 2010s. I had to look if my memory was correct, and here it was:Oh yeah, I was. Whoops. I thought you meant year-end, not G4. Oh well. I'm a clod. Heh.

So cool! Donation made, with Tchaikovsky named "in honor of."Many thanks to Cranks for doing all of this and to Krista for trying to laugh at everything.
My Charity is Camp Del Corazon.
It's a camp every late summer for kids 7-17 that have had open heart surgeries, on Catalina Island. Very special place and time they all have as they rarely see anyone else with a zipper on their chest like them. It's all free for the kids.
My youngest son, Zack, is 24. He went to all those age 7-17 years and has now been a counselor the last six. Feel free to use his camp handle, Tchaikovsky, on the donation form when asked. Zack had three such surgeries from age one to 15 months old.
The annual camp Gala raises a ton of money to make this all happen. Zack and I have gone to the last four. Tom Arnold is the Camp spokesman and spends a week at all three camps playing with with the kids. Tom somehow was able to get the second-to-last episode of ER to be based on the camp. Sylvester Stallone and family are huge contributors as they have a son that had surgeries also.

Many, many thanks!!!!!
