Wow it's so neat looking at everyone's pictures!!! Sarah, how many people have participated, have you counted?! So glad to see all the caringness/love for our dear Yauch!!

[JoLovesMCA]

Sunny Bak tweeted "I love Adam Yauch" like over and over.. Was so cute! Hoping those treatments are going easy on you this month. If I could trade places with you I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Keep it up Sarah!

Thanks for the feedback, girl.

I love looking at them all, too. I'm glad people are feeling good about this. POSITIVE VIBES FOR THE MAN; PEOPLE! And for each other!

I haven't counted how many yet. All of them are up on Facebook. Are there ten so far? More than that?

I also have about half a dozen more that I'm waiting on (I have their photos but they're just getting back to me with details about their charity/postive action).

SPREAD THE WORD! TELL YOUR MATES!

15$ to autismspeaks.org also signed up for their walk in Chicago may 14th, volunteered for an early set up committee (:

[MCAadROCKMiKEd7]

Also once we have every photo rounded up I can make an excellent collage on my comp(: Sarah I'll be replying to your email this morning!

[rhymesayer211]

Hey MsPacman, first off, great idea! More power to you! My wife and I donate a few hunded dollars in our family members names to St. Judes every Christmas. It is better than buying gifts and gives children with cancer a chance to have a chemo party or other things. I do not Twitter so how do I go about the picture thing? I think I read something about Facebook?

That collage idea sounds amazing. I would love to include that for him. I am uploading all the photos on Facebook; so you can get started whenever you like. Thank goodness for artistic people! I am useless in that area.

THANKS, mate!

I will put your pic on Twitter asap; I've emailed you!

xoxo

That is AWESOME! Thankyou!

Do you have email? You can send it as an attachment.

Would LOVE to hear from you. Thankyou for supporting this. I hope many more people get the chance to show Yauch how much he means to them.

[MsPacMan]

Our latest supporter is the wonderful hannahorovitz.

If you don't already read her blog, please check her out.
http://hannahorovitz.tumblr.com/

She made a donation to Save the Sensory Camp in support of PWR2MCA; and also came up with THIS idea:

...........for her birthday next month; she has asked her loved ones to make a donation to one of Yauch's favourite charities (rather than giving her a gift). That's a truly beautiful gesture. I am SO touched by that.

How brilliant is SHE?

THANKYOU!!!!

...and as far as for the cause I am donating time (and my GF too) at the local animal shelter in my town (its a no kill shelter)... also I have some old Grand Royal mags I was going to list on ebay and when listing them, you can donate a 10%-100% percent of the final price to a nonprofit of my choice! So who should I choose? I will post the final value when finished.

Hey Skrill;

I missed this message somehow; sorry, mate!

THIS IS AMAZING! I wanna bid!

I love what you're doing!

Before I tweet about this; do you wanna send me a link to your eBay account so people can get involved in the auction?

THANKYOU!!!

Federica in Paris is supporting a plastic collect-recycle campaign with the children she works with.

The campaign is called "Les petits bouchons"

They collect plastic bottles caps for recycling and the money benefit goes to help children living with an handicap, like buying wheelchairs. It also brings children's attention on the environment issues and the importance of recycling.

THANKYOU, Federica!

Thanks, Debra!

If you ever got the chance to tell Adam Yauch how much he means to you; what would you say?

Well...........say whatever you need to say to him.

THIS IS YOUR CHANCE!

...........if you wish to send a written message to Yauch; email it to me and it would be my pleasure to include it for you.

PWR2MCA!

These messages will be kept private. I won't be publishing them online, and I won't be discussing them with anyone.

Any length! It can't be too long or too short.

Let it aaaaaaalllllll out!

Don't miss your chance!

"........I want to offer my love and respect to the end..........."



mspacman723@gmail.com
(or you can private message me on this board)


Real names not necessary.
Non-English-speaking welcome; we can figure it out together.
Group messages fine.
Anonymous messages also fine.


Your call.


I'm just the carrier pigeon.
EVERYTHING sent to me WILL be printed and sent to Yauch.

xoxoSarah

Renata in Brazil donated to Projeto Apae em Rede – a project of digital inclusion for people with disabilities. Thanks for your support of PWR2MCA!

Just woke up in Sydney. I apologise for being absent.

I will need some time to process this, the same as you all.

Now is not the time to discuss it; but we will have to think about what we're going to do with what we have collected so far for PWR2MCA.

Of course it is not something I would decide by myself.

Your input would be greatly appreciated.

Let's STAND TOGETHER during this.

We could send a copy of the messages to Yauch's family as well as Mike and Adam? I think that would be nice and touching for them to read. I can't believe we are having this conversation.

We will do what everyone thinks is right. We don't have to think about it today.

............the only thing we can do in this moment is to figure out how to get through this first day.

[MsPacMan]

I don't know if anyone is ready to discuss this; but we need to decide what to do with all the PWR2MCA material that's been sent to me.

If you're not ready to talk about it then I totally respect that.

I'm posting this now because have just received an incredibly moving email from a TWELVE-YEAR-OLD FAN who was part of the project.

“I just feel changed. Out of all of the things that have happened to me in my life I really feel this is a turning point. I have a new way to look at the world. I will live life the way Yauch would want me to.”

This brilliant young woman is strongly urging me to post everything we did for PWR2MCA to Mike and Adam, to show our support to them.

She wants to know if I think that's a stupid idea.

I don't think it's a stupid idea.

I think she's RIGHT.

And I would like to thank her for knocking some sense into me. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with taking the time to cry over Yauch, but I don’t feel as though I am doing anything for him by wallowing in grief. I don’t think that’s how he would behave. He was always a man of action.

If we can do something to show our support for Adam and Mike, then we should DO it. They are JUST as important to us as he was.

Of course our messages were directed at Yauch but I don't think this matters............

................what do YOU all think?

Your input is very important to me.

This is an impossible situation and I want to do what's best for everybody.

It has now been 16 hours since I heard the news and I've been sitting at the computer this whole time. It’s midnight in Sydney now. I think I'm gonna take a break and close my eyes and think about it for seven hours or so.

I’ll be in touch in the morning. Please feel free to think about it or discuss it while I’m gone.

I don't think I'll sleep...............

No sleep til Brooklyn.

[MsPacMan]

Kayleigh in South Wales donated to 1st The Queen's Dragoon Guards as part of PWR2MCA on the day before Adam died. Thankyou Kayleigh for allowing us to include you in this, despite the terrible news. (PS. Her iPod is playing Beasties!)

Sarah in Sydney (yep, that's me!) is posting a cheque to the Milarepa Fund.
