Pretty stupid...The girls have gotten lots of donations to cover their costs, however: http://www.denverpost.com/Stories/0,1413,36~53~2700488,00.html "...Cookie giant Otis Spunkmeyer, which honors the girls with its "Kindness Cookie," also has promised the girls countertop ovens and a year's supply of dough. "The girls will visit Denver on Thursday to accept $900 from 850-KOA Radio, which has raised about $4,000 in their names since Saturday, spokesman Alan Jackson said. The rest of the proceeds will be donated to the Never Forgotten Fund, a charity in honor of Columbine High School shooting victims." Debbi No Sprinkles For *You* Wanita!
