Hope For Haiti Friday

Watching Hope For Haiti Now telethon (special). I think hearing Beyonce update her Halo lyrics to include the following:

"Haiti, we can see your halo/ You know you're my saving grace," she sang. "You're everything I need and more, it's written all over your face/ Haiti, we can see your halo/ I pray you won't fade away."

Is the reason I mostly loathe celebrities. Can they all just donate a million and we be done with it? It should be the price for them getting TV time. Can we find a better way than this sad song-y entertainer-a-thon to raise money to help them? Honestly. Steven Speilberg has more money than god, and he's answering phones for $25 donations? Well maybe a better way is not the way the Book Warehouse in Yaletown was rolling tonight:

This donation box seems dubious at best. More like a shady tip jar. And yet people looked to be filling it anyway. Don't get me wrong, we need to give, but there simply has to be a better way than this.

PS: Brad Pitt, you look like a homeless man. Donate now. That is all.
