Nice! Yeah, when we have a postal holiday it tends to screw things up here, and postal holidays almost always come on a Monday which makes it doubly worse. Heh "Doubly worse" just say it a few times you'll get the giggle.
Update time!

Okay, I've been slacking, but here is the final ASPCA tally as well as the 3 day total for our donation drive for Parkinson's Research.
ASPCA grand total for our 9 day drive: 1115.87USD
Our 3 day total for The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research - 361.42USD
If you are interested in contributing or just want to know more read on:
Our donation drives are selected from opinion polls hosted on our website. While the field is narrowed down prior to the poll the final selection is 100% decided by your votes. Each month we take the winner and put their name on one of our top juices. Those juices are then sold at a discount with a 100% donation going towards the affiliated organization. As you've already seen this adds up over the short term into a big donation we, as a community, can send to help support these efforts. The result being that our customers get to try a wider range of flavors, get a discount, and get some good e-juice all the while donating to a worthwhile organization.
The term of the donation drive is still being figured out but as it stands we hold the event for 10 days or until it hits over 1000.00USD (as we've seen we can make this number soar if we focus on just the donation drive, consider these drives more like continuing support rather than fund raising)
The impact to you, zero... except maybe you come away with a feeling that you've enacted some small change for the better.
So join in today! Check out our newest drive - Root Beer for Research!

4 Day Total for 2/23/12 - 565.47USD (copy/pasted - this is for the Root Beer for Research Drive going towards the Michael J. Fox Parkinson's Research Foundation)
I approve. Good juice and a good cause. You can add another bottle's worth to that, now 
8 Day Total for 2/27/12 - 906.58USD
We'll give this another day or two and then we'll prep for the next one mid-month March (around my birthday so we gotta make it something cool.)

Ben's Boba's Birthday Blowout!
LOL funny on soo many levels. I've written a few responses as to why, but the bottom line is it's not likely to happen, but all the reasons why are fun to explore...especially what Christy would do to me, LOL. (trust me, not as fun as the things that just popped into your head)
11 Day Total for 3/1/12 - 1001.03USD
So, just over 1000.00 which is just awesome. You Rock!
Thanks to everyone for helping out the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research. We're so excited to help out such an awesome and transparent foundation.

Its a great cause, Ben. I read his book, Always Looking Up, and it was quite good.
Okay it is UPDATE time again! I know I've been late in getting this together but I wanted to post up the Micheal J Fox Foundation final donation however there is something important here that highlights how much of an impact can be made, so before I go further I want to let everyone know what I'm talking about.
We are still talking to the foundation to make sure this applies to our larger donation but from what we can see it does apply to all donations over 25 dollars.
So that being said we either donated 1001.08 to the foundation or a total of 2002.16 is going to be donated via our actions...I'll update this once I have a solid answer.
Now for our current donation drive totals. This drive is still in effect so check it out today and help Homes for Our Troops here
Home for Our Troops current donation total as of 26 March: 171.48USD
Again, I will post more on the Brin Challenge later today or tomorrow to see where that donation stands. Thanks everyone for the support!
