 Doc,i havent looked to see how many other groups you sent this
message to but,i am going to assume that you sent it to a lot 
of them and also that you arent going to see my reply.Having 
said that,it seems silly to reply at all,but i think there are
some points that i need to make even if you never see this reply.

1.)You never described what yer major malfunction really was.
    How can i feel sympathy for you unless i know whats wrong
    besides your lack of ability write a good "pity me" letter.
2.)
   a.You didnt give your name,how can i feel sympathy for a name 
   less person,hell i laugh at people on the news that are in 
   a lot worse tragic situation than you even when they _do_
   mention thier name.
   b.Some people may want to send more than a dollar to you,but
     this may mean writing a check to you.They could write a
     check and let you write in the name,but they probably wont.
   c.Maybe your name is David Rhodes or someone else the usenet
     has grown tired of and you dont deserve a damn dime.
3.)"spamming" is just a bad idea all around and its off topic for 
   this news group.
4.)If you got to know any of us here in a.a-a you would find 
   that some of us have worse problems than you.Except for the
   bit about the kids i can write a hell of a lot better 
   letter about my troubles and it would be all true.I bet
   that i could convince you to give me a dollar if you 
   knew my situation.Buck up[pun] and think of something
   better to do than whining to us.

Also,just to show that i have heart,here is some help full
advice for you.
I dont know about other states,but since i live in florida
i do know a few ways to get help when the money is tight.
1.)look up the local "Human crisis council center" in your
   area.They have a program called "share" where you can
   buy "enough food to feed 5 people for a week" for either
   2 hours of work,or $15.Also if you dont have any money 
   at all or cant work,thay will give you a card that will 
   allow you to have grociery bag of free food once a week.
   I have used them b4 and its pretty nice,but the program
   varies in its policies at every location,in other words
   it will probly be slightly different in you area,but 
   roughly the same.(try on Lee road about 2 miles from
   441,not tooooo far from clarcona,just take john young
   over to 441 and keep going for a bit and take a right
   at the first light after 441,its about 1.5 miles)

2.)You and your wife can make about 25 dolars a week 
   a piece selling plasma at your local plasma center.
   maybe even more where you live,i dont know.I gave
   plasma just to eat for a while,i got 25 dollars
   for going 2 times a week and 15 dolars bought me
   food at the share place,and the other 10 went 
   toward other stuff that was needed.It was never 
   enough but i survived.(Plasma center is about
   2 blocks off the Trail on church street)
  
3.)Also if you go to the plasma center on church
   street then you can time it right to get a free
   lunch at the shelter about 2 blocks behind the 
   plasma place.I think the free lunch starts at
   11:00 am.

4.)Another block down church street is a catholic
   church that has a program that has a program
   that will help you out with rent a bit.You 
   have to interview with a person and tell them
   your story,but they will give you some free 
   food and also may pay your rent for a month,
   they may also help with utility bills.They 
   dont have a lot of money,and some times they
   cant help,but they _will_ try.They also have
   a thrift store that they may give you stuff 
   from for free if you ask.

5.)The Salvation Army Thrift store on 50
   not far from Clarcona is a great place
   to get clothes and stuff.You may even find
   some cool "goodies" for yer boys there.
   Its the best thrift store i have ever
   been to and i highly recomend going there.

6.)_IF_ you go to the plasma place,you will
   meet a lot of other people that are in
   bad situations.Its not a scummy place,
   and you dont have to talk to others,but
   if you do,you can ask other people about
   what they do to make ends meet.You will
   get a lot of advice from other people that
   know where to find help.

I dont know if these places are all still there,
they come and go i suppose,but you can try.Ask around,
there are plenty of options in your area.Good luck,
and dont post anything here unless its about ascii-art.
