Flowers for Al and Don

I think this is an awesome idea. Inspired by this post, this is how it works:

Basically, people are generously sending flowers to random gay couples waiting in line to get married in San Francisco. This is a brilliant idea, but I immediately recognized a problem. The flower shop cited ... is apparently charging a minimum of US $47 to deliver these flowers. That's probably market value, but it's a bit steep for individuals who might want to help out ... but can't spare fifty bucks. Hence, Flowers for Al and Don. I'm using a PayPal account to collect money, with which I'll buy bouquets in bulk for the couples in line. You can donate as much or little as you please, and I pledge that every cent (minus the PayPal fees) that I receive will go to this project.
Right fuckin' on, Darren Barefoot.

Duh, I forwarded this to my homegrrls before I saw that you weren't collecting the money. So if cash starts rolling in, sweetie, you and I can go out for drinks ;)
