Lights Out in Greenwich

First, I want to thank Baierman for bringing this issue to my attention. Recognizing the plight of my home state, he figured I'd be the best one to speak about the tragedy that's unfolding in Greenwich, Connecticut.

According to this article, the town of Greenwich may not be able to afford their $45,000 holiday lights they've planned on stringing around town. So far, this town of hedge funds and Wall Streeters has only come up with $30,000 in donations to get the lights lit and that isn't enough.

Forget feeding the poor. Screw health care for everyone. The song, "Do They Know It's Christmas?" will hit home particularly hard for me this season as I walk to Tiffany's on a dimly lit Greenwich Avenue (aka: The Ave) and have no idea that Christmas is right around the corner. I don't ask much over the year, but I'm asking for your help. Won't you reach into your pockets and ensure the Town of Greenwich can light their streets with festive cheer?

You can expect a hefty donation from the Scaramouch family when hell freezes over.

I was thinking about tossing a few bucks to the little match girl on the corner, but hey, this is *really* important. I got your back Echo.

Nice piece, Echo. Very touching to include a picture from the projects of Greenwich, CT.
