I have Red on today
as a tribute to millions around the world living with HIV/AIDS. Only one person in my office knew why I was wearing Red. Everyone else thinks it's for Christmas. Is anyone else wearing red today?

2. No, I refuse to support the red campaign... How much money is
Gap making off this red campaign... No, I'll send my money directly and keep it away from the corporate bullshit... besides think of all the chinese ladies that stayed up late working on your red t-shirt.

9. The thought and gesture are nice
:thumbsup:
Your support has nothing to do with the corporate crap.
It is genuine and heartfelt.
Nice job.

11. I wore a red skull cap & Green sweater yesterday & no one said anything
today I wore a burnt sienna sweater and a gray cap and someone on the corner called me Santa Claus. I don't know where any of this stuff was made and I have no noble reason for wearing it (wish I did but I don't). I'm glad you did and do.
