Just read this story on CNN.com

http://www.cnn.com/US/9909/11/AM-ThanksaMillion.ap/index.html

Definitely a feel-good fluff kinda piece, but I thought it was cool.

Interesting to note that the taxes he chose to pay for all of that
amounted to $25 million.  I guess that would be easier to swallow if
we knew that $25M would go for something worthwhile and not one of a
thousand pet pork projects in some congresscritter's district.



The parts you want and nothing else?
