Thanks to many of you, I finished ahead of fellow columnist Bill McEwen in the number of Kids Day newspapers sold today. It was a friendly competition, and the kids at Children's Hospital Central California were the big winners. The overall results have yet to be tallied, but this could be a record-breaking year for the amount of money that Valley residents will be sending to Children's Hospital.
Thanks for being so generous.
UPDATE at 6:18 p.m.: I just talked with Tom Cullinan, The Bee's vice president of circulation, and he reports that today's efforts will generate at least $400,000 (they are still counting so the number will go higher) for Children's Hospital.
Wow.
Finally the world has it's priorities straight...if only for a precious moment.
