I kinda like that and I kinda don't. It leads me to believe he is sicker than we know. I don't know. I'm happy this is doing well though girl.

At the beginning of this project I mentioned two worthy causes: Alex's Lemonade Stand and the Pablove Foundation (both raising money to fight childhood cancer).

If you were gonna donate; I suggested that you might wanna support one of those two.

I first heard about them last year. The Beasties are giving the proceeds from the action figure sales to them.

People have already started giving to these two organisations as part of the PWR2MCA project, and we just got this message from Megan at the Pablove Foundation on Facebook:

"We think what you guys are doing is AWESOME! Thanks so much for the support for The Pablove Foundation along the way. Let us know how we can participate."

That made me weep with joy.

Good work, team.

This going to be really sappy, but I don't care.

One of my favourite tributes is Sublime’s KRS ONE.

And I just want to say I know because of the Beastie Boys.
I would like to give thanks.

Thanks for teaching me about Tibet and the fundamentals of Hip-Hop:

I give thanks for inspiration. Because of songs like Gratitude and I Don’t Know, I picked up a guitar and started playing. I might be a hack but I’m still working at it.

Thanks for providing sick beats and rhymes in the morning, making my commute to all the shitty jobs I ever worked at, a bit more bearable.

Thanks for providing motivation and inspiration which helped me land great jobs.

Thanks for being the soundtrack to my life:

brooklyndust has taken the PWR2MCA Project to new heights; LITERALLY!

[JoLovesMCA]

I am speechless. Reading the responses here and then seeing facebook and twitter just blow up. I had some fans who don't post here tell me to mention that they are also doing what they can to help. Sarah I told you about Beth.

Yauch you are truly loved and missed by many. Get well soon!

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.
