It happens every year in my home town.
The local Kiwanis Club recruits its members to stand at corners and collect money for peanuts. Literal peanuts. Beer nuts to be exact.
I've noticed this phenomenon over the years and wondered about the lucidity of it.
It is supposed to be a fundraiser.
It must be somewhat effective. Why else would they send their members to man the street corners?
Frankly I don't get it. Whenever I see them, I have no problem driving by guilt free. Giving cash to sweaty people on a street corner just doesn't seem right. And who carries cash anymore?
I know, I know, its for a good cause. They seem somewhat friendly. You've got to give them props for taking time to stand in the middle of the street as cars drive by.
But seriously, would you want to buy peanuts from this guy?

That was so funny Megan! Is Kory part of the Kiwanis club? I guess it's kind of related to the Key Club in school which Matt is now the sponsor of at BHS.
So funny, I totally did from that random man you have pictured on your blog.
Rebekah - Yep, Kory is part of Kiwanis!
And Kirsten - so did I :)
LOL!
How could you drive by your own husband guilt-free?! :)
Megan,
That was so funny! I usually go by people doing that with as little eye contact as possible.
Mom

Judging from the comments, that guys belongs to you? Am I right? I don't know what the husbands of my shespeaks girls look like...I was gonna ask you how you got random guy to smile so big for you.
Glad your're back blogging :)
