Calling all RVs

Scott Chaffin, that lovable curmudgeon aka The Fat Guy has come up with a splendid idea for doing his part in helping those displaced by Katrina. In his words:

You might or might not know that I have a Tiny Bidness down on the Brazos River which contains within it some 21 virtually unused RV hookups. I'm opening them up for temporary housing requirements for victims of that Hurricane Katrina. Problem is, I ain't gots no RVs. That's where you come in. Being Texans, you probably know some hayseed (maybe family, maybe not) who owns an RV that will be parked for the next few months as we slip into fall and winter. I'm looking for donations of those idle RVs for temporary housing at my place.

So...I would greatly appreciate your assistance in getting the word out to people through your blogs or through your personal network. ... I've got a notice up on the Tiny Bidness website with contact information that can be linked.

So, if you're a hayseed (and we use that term with the utmost respect and affection) with a trailer or RV parked in your backyard or front drive and you wouldn't mind loaning it out for a bit, please contact Scott and ya'll can work out the details. These are the kinds of grassroots ideas that make me proud to be a Texan.

And, as always, if you're a blogger please consider posting this request in order to spread the word. Gracias.

Hey, when the Sheriff says "jump," the posse just asks "how high." Hope you get some response from this...it's a cool thing to try.
