Wow, a Whole $100,000. Gracias, America!

We can only hope that every single news outlet has printed a typo when reporting the amount of cash the United States is sending Peru, which is still experiencing severe aftershocks. As the death toll climbs past 500, with more than 1,500 reported injuries, the United States government has pledged a whopping $100,000 in support. Why don’t we just send America’s Player, Eric (with his oh-so-attractive pierced nipples) from Big Brother to help them out?

If you’re feeling a tad more generous than Uncle Sam, the Red Cross has its International Response Fund. If you want your donation to go to Peru, make sure you designate your donation accordingly.

Peace.
