Help the Victims of Katrina
August 31, 2005, 2005, 4:42 p.m. EDT

Why does it take a disaster of epic proportions to rouse TheDo-Gooder.com from its slumber?

Ethical people of the world unite and give all you can to help the victims of the storm. I recommend the Red Cross, 1-800-HELP-NOW. You can find a list of other charities aiding victims of the storm on FEMA's Web site.

And please, don't forget the non-human victims of the disaster: thousands of pets and animals who are now homeless and helpless. You can aid them by donating to the Humane Society's Disaster Relief Fund.

Watch this space for new ravings soon. After you've donated.
