They said because I was using HOP to garner donations and didn't want every Tom Dick or Katie following my example next time they want donations for Girl Scout Cookies...

It was the linkage they had a problem with.

Which was fair enough really....

I'm afriad to spread the word now for fear of being perceived as an annoying do gooder and having the adverse effect to the cause...

The disillusionment will pass...

Yesterday it felt as if I was starting to get along better with my Dad. The fact that he needed me to sort out his paperwork and internet stuff was beside the point. I think its because my annoying spoilt C**t of a younger cousin from Hong Kong is staying with them whilst studying here. Makes me look like the dutiful son by comparison...

I have that problem with my sister. We never got along, but due to a effort on both our parts, it seems to be going better.

As you say, it's never to late.
