October 27, 2014 This past weekend was the Extra Life video game marathon.
It gave gamers a chance to play video games for 24 hours straight, requesting donations for the good of the cause. Players chose the local children's charity of their choice and started playing. This year, the national total came to $5,102,500.90!

October 14, 2014 Something drastic happened to me the other day and it just made me have an "I Need A Hug From Oprah" moment.
