You know through all these rough times for everyone that's been effected by the recession etc. it's good to know that those that sometimes FLAUNT their $$$$ way too hard, can turn around and give something BACK to the people. Rapper Ludacris has clearly shown us his own Robin Hood ways by giving away 20 cars this past Sunday to people who wrote about their struggles to keep their jobs for lack of wheels of their own. The rapper partnered with an Atlanta dealership to donate cars to winners of an essay contest. Every person that won a car, also got free gas for 30 days.
I KNOW THAT'S RIGHT LUDA!!!!!! Now if only DC folks could share in the same way...free Metro Fair Friday's!!??? Why not? Don't they owe us for risking riders lives every single day when we board those trains?...exactly.
Since I'm on the topic of giving, why not combine two things that I truly believe makes the world go round...drinking & the environment....that's right, TODAY (if you're in the DC area), you can throw back a cool refreshing drink that's environmentally friendly at this Dupont Lounge. Greendrinks DC will be debuting a green themed cocktail and Current will be offering discounts on various drinks until 9:30pm tonight. The catch for this specific event is that you have to sit through a book talk about the "D.C. Metro Area Green Careers & Jobs Guide" but lets be honest....is that such a BAD thing to sit through? My own personal responses is NOPE, sure isn't! Most of you are probably in need of a job anyways, so why not knock this event out of the way GREEN style ;-)
