It's Monday and in 4 hours the original deadline to submit your story to me will be over. Since I have not collected enough stories (15) and since we're so close, I am extending the deadline till Wednesday, August 15th. That should give me plenty of time to send them and get them to the senators by the time they start up again and begin debate on the DOD bill.

So... new deadline: WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 15, 2007 (noon-central time)

SEND IN YOUR STORIES! Make them as detailed as you'd like. I have recieved some excellent ones that gave me goose bumps and teary eyes. This should definitely give us enough to get the 15. I need 3 more to reach that goal. If we go over, that's even better!

Rules:
*Send in by the new deadline
*Can be as long as you want it to be
*Must be clear and easy to read
*PM me the story, no matter the length
*Optional: include name and state you currently live in

I will read over them and correct any small grammar mistakes... I will not alter any of your sentences.

Everyone, please spend an hour tonight an write up a brief history of your life as an undocumented immigrants! It is ridiculous that we have not received at least 15 entries! We have so many people on this board, and we still haven't been able to accumulate 15 stories! I know a lot of you waste an hour on Facebook or MySpace each day, including myself. Use that time to write up your stories!

How many stories do you have, my borther is very, very shy and does not want my greedy eyes to get a hold of his inner demons . Still, he said that if you only have 14 he will do it. which by the way does not make it okay for all of you slackers to do nothing. We should have at least 100 biographies, yet we cannot get 15. This is a joke, I can 15 minute man to kiss my brown illegal face! Don't make me shake my fist at you!

As of right now I have 15 stories! yay! But that doesn't mean you shouldn't send in more... The deadline is still tomorrow at noon, so if you still want to send your story in, that would be great

Thank you all who have submitted so far and for encouraging others to do so.

LAST call if you want to submit your story! Due by noon central time tomorrow (8/15/07). Just PM me your story if you would like to participate.

I have over 15 pages... it would save me money if I printed on both sides of a sheet of paper... but I don't know if that would look good/professional. My opinion is it wouldn't. Let me know what you think.

Oh and I found out what Oprah's address is (well Harpo Production's address)! So I'm definitely sending them to her.

I think you're right, i would say more professional on only one side of the paper, but if you're really strapped for cash it's ok. I just finished mine, and I'm sending it to you now!

I think you should post the people that wrote a letter, just to give the ones that didn't shame. I'm writing mine right now and will send it soon.
