GOOD CHRISTMAS DEEDS
The Christmas spirit of giving is starting to spread around the country:
– Last week, a manager at a Walmart in Bristol, Tennessee, confirmed that a person who wants to remain anonymous paid for about $65,000 worth of layaway items. The manager added that the person said the act of kindness was made “in Christ’s name.”
– A Florida business owner paid the utility bills of 114 families who were facing disconnection. Michael Esmond’s generosity started last year when he paid the utility bills of 36 households in his community of Gulf Breeze. This year, he upped the ante. Esmond donated $7,615.40 to pay for the past-due bills of 114 households. He says it really affected him when he learned that so many people “can’t even afford to pay a $100 bill on their utilities and things are so bad.”
– Over 900 customers took part in a Pay-It-Forward at a Dairy Queen drive-thru in Brainerd, Minnesota. One man came by the drive-thru window a week ago Thursday and asked if he could pay for his meal and for the car behind him. When the worker told the next car their order was paid for, that customer paid for the one behind him. The chain continued for two and a half days with over 900 cars participating, raking in $10,000 in sales.
* How does the guy paying for the car behind him know how much their order is?
* This year, spread the cash, not the corona.
* Let me write this down. Michael Esmond … Gulf … Breeze … Florida. Yeah, my car needs an alignment BAD.
* Here’s my idea of Christmas spirit. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has 200 billion dollars. Billion with a B. He could give each of his 1,125,000 overworked Amazon employees a $1,000 Christmas bonus, and he’d still have just about 199 billion.
