Be Excellent To Each Other

So I know you luv to ride, but how about riding for a good reason (besides wanting to maintain your physical fitness)? If you like to feel good both physically and in your heart, I have just the ride for you. The Ride for Missing Children, Finger Lakes 2009 will be held on September 18th and starts / finishes in Auburn, NY and is a truly amazing ride. Just imagine riding 100 miles with police lights flashing and sirens sounding all around you (no, the police will not be chasing you…). Instead, you will be escorted by local and state police as you ride at a 15 – 18 mph pace to participate in education programs at local schools. As you approach each school, you will be welcomed by hundreds of cheering adults and children. One thing to note, if you cannot ride the entire 100 miles, do not worry… Buses will be available to help you rest.
Sponsored by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children/New York (NCMEC/NY), the Finger Lakes Ride for Missing Children is a 100-mile ride that raises funds to support prevention education programs and to remember all missing children. More than 2,000 children are reported missing in the United States each day. For most families, this is only a brief scare as the child turns up in a few minutes or hours. But for some, the nightmare of a missing child becomes a grim reality. NCMEC’s mission is to help recover missing children, protect all children from sexual exploitation, and assist in the prevention of these crimes.

SPAMMER TIME

Uh oh! Uh oh uh oh uh oh!

Charity spamming?!

EDIT - Ah, no. Plastic wristband profiteering.

Oh.. this isn't about Alton Towers' new ride 'The Maddie'?

BREAK IT DOWN

BANNED. Three threads is too many.

Sig also changed.

Sig changed again, to a site that is safe for work.

Is there any schedule for this ride? I'm a stickler for timing you see. Better to be early than late, I say! Ride on time. Ride on time!

If you get there late you won't get any of the children.

Err, did that one actually resolve? Whoops!

Mods changing links to lead to NSFW sites? And people were HAPPY to vote this behaviour back into power?

What this site really lacks is a eye-rolling/head-shaking smiley.

I've stopped caring about NSFW saites, when I realised that our intranet address (to which IE defaults) will, when connecting through anything other than our server at the office, lead to a porn site.

Haha, what have you called your intranet?

I'm not riding missing children.

*for* missing children, that is.

Also, finger lakes sounds a bit dirty.

pink.net, excellently. It appears to be a specialist prorn site which is likely to be of interest to Meaty, focussing, as it does, on ladies of far east asian extraction.

If the children are missing, how will they go on the ride?

Or is that the plan, find all the missing children as they will be on this ride?

I feel cheated. I was all excited because I luv to ride^TM, but this event happened 5 days ago & I don't own a DeLorean. Fuck you snorkelkey, I feel all guilty & shit! Now I'll have to buy a Sillycone Bracelet so everyone knows how charitable I am.

I took this to be a thrilling near-miss go-karting experience, where you get cash prizes for driving at high speeds and narrowly missing small infants, Burnout-style.

I work for a charity that's actually a charity. Send me money now, thanks.

Possibly my campaign spiel needs work, but I like to get to the point.

That'll be fun the first time a not very computer savvy employee tries to send out a link to a client to something on your intranet.

I once had a boss who was showing a potential client some pictures of our latest wares that he'd received from suppliers, and as he flicked through the received images folder on picture viwer's preview mode, up popped a picture of Britney Spears' rubbery flange.

You worked for a company that makes Britney Spears spares?
