I checked my tape, but they were still taking calls for the bushtucker for tonight. I guess just watch from the beginning tonight, and start calling 1-866-411-4081!!!! as soon as the polls open. OK???

I agree, I like her charity best, but Make a Wish is a close 2nd. I will vote to keep her.

Yay! I was hoping more people would vote for the animals!!! Plus Maria has been very nice. I liked it when she said they could all learn from this experience and how so many more people have it so much worse then they do right now. (Meanwhile most of the rest are bitchin' about how bad it is for them...)

Yay Julieboo!! I like the way she's not bitching about the rain, or food or anything. She's there just for her charity and maybe the "experience".

I don't want to be a wet blanket and I adore animals, but.. HSUS may not be the best use of money.

I used a website http://www.charitynavigator.org to look up all the charities. They rate the efficiency of the charities from zero to four stars.

Of the charities actually evaluated, HSUS got only one star. God's Love We Deliver also got one star.

CityMeals on Wheels - NY got three stars
City of Hope got three stars
Make-A-Wish Foundation got three stars


Just food for thought.. you can go to the site and compare and contrast charities.

I think for me the winning combination is Cris or Melissa and Make-A-wish.

(you could use Tones for Turtles, Punching for Parrots)

Sea, I just went to that site. I checked out the HS in my area. It received 4 stars, but I won't ever give it a fricking dime. I would rather give my money to almost any other animal shelter or rescue than this one.

By the way, the website says voting starts right after the show ends tonight.. not saying that this is correct because, as we know, they keep changing challenges on us, so they can change anything, but I'd hate for anyone to be voting for Maria to have to do the Bushtucker trial tomorrow (the vote that started last night). Don't want to see her suffer.

I probably won't vote but if I do it won't be for the charity it will be for the person I want to win my vote.

I haven't watched enough know who I like yet. I will pay attention tonight.

Okay Owl, someone on this thread had mentioned that if you call as soon as the show starts you have a better chance of getting through, and that's what I did and I got to vote 15 times for Maria!! Then about 5 minutes into the show, her line was busy. I waited for 1/2 hr. after the show ended and voted a few more times, I also voted for Alana, I really don't want her to be the first to go!! Since Maria's line was so busy I'm hoping that means she stays!

I'm calling to vote Maria, for both her charity and the way she's been so nice.
