Nurse Tootie McBride: "Woe are the poor, broke, jobless and those individuals who will lose their unemployment benefits this holiday season. Some coldhearted politicians and uncaring corporations have thrown so many people out in the cold and to the curb. The warm possibility of change has become the bone-chilling reality of callousness. Even though the cold-heartedness of people brings a chill to my soul, I will do my best to remain warm and sympathetic to the needs of others.
"So I decided to develop the McBride Family and Ghetto Science Team's Holiday Task Force for the Newly Disenfranchised. This task force's purpose is to ensure that all businesses and services in the Ghetto Science Community meet the needs of individuals affected by job layoffs, discontinued unemployment benefits, home foreclosure, etc. So far, the response to the objectives of the task force has been positive.
"Already, Bubba Robinski's Soy Protein Sausage Biscuits and Qweem-O-Wheat's Meals on Wheels Foundation have joined forces to provide daily, holiday-season hot breakfasts for the homeless, senior citizens, school children and job trainees.
"Rev. Cletus and his bus-driving deacons will provide extended transportation services for individuals who need a ride to their part-time, holiday season jobs at Y'all Mart.
"Aunt Tee Tee and Brother Hustle will use some grant money from the Ghetto Stimulus Fund to provide career-minded individuals free computer-literacy training and refurbished laptops.
"Now this is what good will to all people is about."
