Originally posted by Phaze I'm in Canada but i would definitely like to help the brother out...there's gotta be someway. Even if I sent him Canadian funds, I"m sure he wouldn't mind transferring it over to pounds/squid or whatever. If anyone comes up with some idea, let me know.
I could do the money order thing or send a cheque, I have a credit card or whatever.
If we can somehow get his address, I'd just mail him a check or money order.
Peace

hey alrite i have an idea..
why don't all peepz in Canada send money to one guy.. he collects all funds from canada and send a check down to Sim?
it would be easier for transfering money WITHIN canada..
so once its all collected.. the guy who does so writes a check and send it.
sounds good eh?

I think its definately a nice gesture, but its not the right thing to do. If we really want to help him, we have to let him solve his own problems. That's part of growing as a person. It's not going to be easy for him, but hey that's life. Just like the quote from Stallone's new movie Driven: "We all fall down, it's just how fast we get up." I know Simcut will pull through this, and when he does, he'll be stronger than ever. We'll continue to be here for support, but I think the best thing for him right now is to stop dwelling on the problems and go out and fix them. Everyone thinks that just buying a mixer will solve the problem. It may make him happy for a short period of time, but let's face it, money can't buy happiness. He needs to look inside for that. Aight I'm gonna stop talking now. Go get em Simcut.
P.S. Congratualations lynx on hitting 2000 posts

man we're not liek going to find a job for him or something..
all we're doing is try to get some money to buy him a new mixer and needles for his decks.
I am sure he is mature enuff to look after himself but we're only getting him a gift

i hear you. I was getting a little too into that last post, but i still think a mixer won't solve his problems. But hey he's done a lot for this site so he does deserve it.

I agree...why not help someone if u can?? if someone you know and respect is feeling down, u should try to do all that u can to help him/her get back on their feet. I know whenever I'm feeling shitty, any small gesture that makes me feel better helps me get through other problems. Its no use dwelling on a problem while dealing with other problems. U need to think with a clear conscience. By making small donations, Sim will feel good about the gesture, appreciate the help (we hope) and be able to tackle the bigger issues now that a smaller one is out of the way.
Anyhoo...whoever will collect the $$$ from us crazy canucks let me know and I'll get it to them somehow.
