... and dont forget porky porkinson the parkinson pig and his sister porquetta, the pig with a political agenda - they raised over $700 just for starters, and now porky junior has taken over - all this to be matched dollar for dollar by the alliance but porquetta - always the political animal , even though she has officially retired from collections, has been whispering in my ear. She says that with michael j fox in the business now ( she wont let us forget that she met him in june at the forum) and the increased government interest in funding research - well miss porquetta feels that maybe, just maybe, some of the alliance's money should be directed towards helping individual pwp's in need. perhaps a fund could be established to set up housing for yoppers and other single pwps who have no particular ;place to go or person to care for them? she would like to know what people think of this idea? given sufficient response , she, porquetta porkinson, the pig with a political agenda , would personally present it to the alliance. hilary blue (representing porky and porquetta, and porky junior - also gordy, and peter paul and perry - the blue pigs) > >http://www.parkinsonalliance.net/html/home1.html > > > > The Princeton, NJ-based Parkinson Alliance is a national non-profit > > organization dedicated to raising funds to help finance the most > > promising research to find the cause and cure for Parkinsonís > > disease.
