okay. the global food crisis is REAL. people are dying. the cost of rice has increased by 50%. this is significant for families living off $2-3 bucks a day. i'm thinking it could be possible to literally adopt a family and ship parishable goods direct w/no red tape. just normal people shipping a $20-30 buck ration a month.

i think this is possible.

I think donating money is a better idea

donate the money you save from not smoking bud

6/24/2008 12:02:31 AM

DAmn this shit is real.

If amsterdam doesn't quit smoking the pots he is a biggity biotch

6/24/2008 12:11:01 AM

been off the pot for 9 hours now.

Plumpy'nut [no homo] is the solution.

LOL, as long as the family is in the US

I'm in on this, B, if you're serious.

6/24/2008 10:19:20 AM

You need to turn this into a contest where several 3rd world families compete for a year's supply of rice, something similar to most extreme elimination challenge

6/24/2008 10:30:10 AM

or tww could do something worthwhile and adopt a family.

6/24/2008 10:31:12 AM

I support the concept, but

goodbye overpopulation

6/24/2008 10:36:07 AM

i do not support this thread solely due to the ignorant jackass driving it. he wouldn't know hunger if it hit him in the stomach.

i know hunger. this is a serious issue. i'm ignoring the insults and really thinking about this problem. there has to be a logical way to curb world hunger.

6/24/2008 11:24:33 AM

there is - feed everyone
you quitting weed for the eleventy billionth time doesn't have an impact on this topic

6/24/2008 11:26:16 AM

this thread isn't about my weed intake. its about ideas. be a part of the solution, not the problem. i'm trying to get people thinking about this. PEOPLE ARE STARVING. kids are dying.

6/24/2008 11:28:27 AM

yea people are starving - here. ppl on this board go hungry everyday...you want to help? buy st8bacrdiL and DnL a pack plan. you can't seriously address big problems until you tidy up your back yard.

6/24/2008 11:34:29 AM

I'm willing to pitch in to sponsor a family.

C'mon guys, we bought an invisibility document off of Ebay. If we got 20 people to give $1, we could feed a family.

I'm actually on board with this.

6/24/2008 1:29:30 PM

WHY do people volunteer their money for this shit? Africa had the most time out of any continent in the world to develop from an evolutionary standpoint and is the furthest behind in terms of civilization. FUCK EM

6/24/2008 1:37:28 PM

just give all your money to Uday and let him take care of it

6/24/2008 1:50:18 PM

^^ because it's obviously the children who are living there's fault that they're starving.

6/24/2008 3:39:59 PM

i will help you feed the hungry, B.


you should set up a pay pal account so people can donate. Make it more convenient for those who care.

I want a guarantee that this money will go to the hungry.

[Edited on June 24, 2008 at 3:44 PM. Reason : .]

6/24/2008 3:43:59 PM

i'm trying to figure out a way. i mean i saw the little shanty towns on the news and the reporters were interviewing the ppl, but they had PO Boxes ....

^^^ That will require a picture of him putting the food in a box while holding his social security card, driver's license, and a sign that says "I'm Amsterdam718, B."

[Edited on June 24, 2008 at 4:42 PM. Reason : .]

6/24/2008 4:42:19 PM

xsmp tried like 15 times to talk shit and bring a718 to his level. but amsterdam would have none of that.

funny part is it gets progressively more desperate as you go.

oh yeah, well, kids are hungry cause you keep trying to stop smoking!!1"

hahha

i'd go in on this, but i really hate the idea of RICING the world. there has to be something better for them thats not like eating carpet

6/24/2008 4:42:50 PM

i don't want any money sent to me. i'm just looking for suggestions on doing food drops. i think regular citizens should be able to coordinate this. i'm distrustful of coorporatations that do this. i figure the true power is with the ppl to get sh!t done and solve the hunger problem.

i know on in the airport at Miami its always sort of smelly. i asked once and it was because the ppl are bring fish and meats back to their countries of origin. its a sad state of affairs, G.

You can help some people, but you can't really solve the hunger problem. There will always be poor people who can't afford to eat, but that discussion is a bit too soapboxy for this thread.

6/24/2008 4:49:50 PM

i got it in the soapbox. i'm trying to come up with a plan. i figured you guys would be giving me some insight and such.
