On Monday, September 12th, between the hours of 5:00pm and 7:00pm, bar customers across the nation will raise their glasses for a “Save New Orleans Cocktail Hour” as bar and restaurant owners shake up New Orleans' classic cocktails to directly benefit New Orleans food and beverage industry workers who are out of work and sorely in need of funds for rebuilding their lives. During this special event New Orleans classics will be offered at participating bars for $10 per drink. Receipts from the Save New Orleans Cocktail Hour will be donated to a special tax-deductible relief fund established by the Museum of the American Cocktail.

Yeah Carol, what a great ay to benifit the homeless....getting drunk.
Spending 5$ on gas, driving to the bar, buying drinks....when clearly the money could have been used in some sort of "democratic action"...WTF?
I don't have to drive to a bar, asshat, I walk or take the subway. And since people aren't going to stop going to bars or comedy shows or concerts, I think it's smart, appropriate and useful to use some of the funds derived therein for the relief effort.
And just so you know, I've donated money to the Red Cross twice and my company matched my donations. I also have a week's worth of benefit shows that I'll be attending and I'm encouraging everyone I know to do the same. Every little bit helps and you have to reach people in different ways to keep the cash flowing. So if you want to chastise me, have a name and real fucking point first.
Golly, you're right anonymous! There are much better ways to "benifit" the homeless.
How about you start a dunk tank? You know, where you can sit on a platform and we try to throw softballs at a target, thereby dunking you in a tank of water.
Only, we don't use "soft" balls, we don't throw them at the target, and we don't fill the tank.
What the hell do you mean by "democratic action" anyway? Should we all run out and vote or something? Run along now and let the adults handle this...
