Got this through our gag mailing list at work with this image:
Dear All,
I don’t normally make a habit of forwarding charity e-mails, but this seemed to be a particularly good cause. I know it touched me personally. Mute Tourettes Syndrome has long been in the shadow of its more famous sister-disease,
Tourettes Syndrome, and although much rarer, is even more tragic in its consequences. While a child suffering from Tourettes has difficulty in containing its anger and frustration, a child with Mute Tourettes suffers the opposite fate, and is unable to express their true feelings. There is, however, an answer. A great deal has been achieved by the Mute Tourettes Foundation using new art therapy techniques. However, their work can only continue with your help. Just $5.00 will keep a child supplied with crayons for a whole day. $10 will provide them with enough paper for a week. Please give what you can to help this deserving cause. Thank you.Please open the above attachment so that the benefits of your generosity can be appreciated.

How can you not donate to such a worthy cause? I think I need to sign myself up for this class, pass the crayons
