Cool Giveaway for Karma!!, by Brushstrokes 75 on Apr 15, 2012 17:30:47 GMT 1, Here it goes.
I haven't decided exactly what or how much I will give away but it will only be stuff that cost me more than ยฃ100 (probably will be non street art stuff like : Lichtenstein, Murakami or whatever).
Let's make it more fun.
To be able to enter this giveaway, you have to make a good deed : give at least ยฃ1 to charity, help someone in need , just do something nice for someone that isn't you (cooking a meal for the missus, spending some time w/ your kids, lawn your neighboor's grass for free lol..). .......
It's not about the money, it's about the action so everyone can enter.
Would be cool if you could document it somehow, take a pic... etc
I will select a few people at random on May 16th so you all have a month to be creative & find the time!

Cool Giveaway for Karma!!, by curiousgeorge on Apr 16, 2012 14:13:21 GMT 1, I caught a tv program that had a story about an ex-forces chap with PTSD who lost everything he had thanks to Northern Rock(think they screwed him for about 80k!).So much so he had to give up his dog as he couldn't afford to feed it
He is into weight training and thanks to the internet I was able to find him and offer him a free box of supplements.I grew up always being told that someone,somewhere is worse off than me.Hence I do these things, often do it for the local boxing club smack bang in the middle of a sink estate.
I love doing it but this last weekend they had an inter-club comp and nearly every parents car was a top-end Merc/BMW/Range Rover
wtf!

Cool Giveaway for Karma!!, by hunter007 on Apr 16, 2012 14:33:13 GMT 1, Oh yes , also Friday just gone, i was sitting at home 10:30 in the evening and i heard aloud explotion and a bright lot in my garden , i run out there turns out my neighbours shed had exploded as he keeps a motor bike a mobility scooter and paint etc etc in , So as he has an elderly mother who he lives with i rushed to wake them then run to call the firebrigade. they ended up turning up just in time and managed to keep the fire basically in the gardens well it affected our windows down stairs, blew all the glass melted the frameres etc etc. but luckily both our houes are relatively undameged, My neighbours being alot worse of course but just releved that no one was hurt. The Firemen said if they were ten mins later or so then there would more than likly been two house fires. On the plus side we hadnt really spoken with our neighbours for a couple of years so atleast it kinda cleared the air between us ,Although it would had been easier over a cuppa

I was in the bank the other day and found an envelope full of cash and handed it in to the cashier... I didn't run the London Marathon today but I sponsored lots that did... I retuned my elderly next door neighbour's tv, she's very happy she now has all her channels back

Cool Giveaway for Karma!!, by fatscoundrel on Apr 22, 2012 20:43:44 GMT 1, Great. My son is now 4 and has a very inquisitive mind but great weekend in the lake district. Apart from the chip shop fire. If you do love babies/charity so much I suggest news.actsma.co.uk/ the trust for ally kadence who died aged 6 months. I always feel the smaller charities in this big society we live in get unnoticed.

Cool Giveaway for Karma!!, by fairplay1974 on May 14, 2012 14:11:30 GMT 1, Was in a changing room in a bodybuilding gym over the weekend, when a really large female Wolf Spider came out from underneath one of the lockers, carrying a huge spun egg sack with her... Loads of VERY burly guys screaming like babies, jumping up on benches, then very loudly (and manly!!) laughing and debating over who had the guts to go and squash it! So I quietly put my bag down, walked over to the spider with a few bits of tissue paper, gently picker her up and took her outside into the carpark where I placed her under a hedge to go do her thing.
Walked back into the changing room to complete silence.
Not expecting to win at all, but saving creatures from situations where they are not capable of saving themselves is something I've always felt good doing when I can.

I have full blown arachnophobia to a scary degree. Comes from having a tarantula crawl up my leg and get way to close to my balls when i was a kid (like touching close). true story, makes me feel sick just writing it down....
