Im defintely calling [sm=bs.gif]. There is no way a charity foundation could be leagally bound to this kid. There are tons of kids with dissabilities, and do you think every kid gets to make a wish with this foundation? I dont think so. The little kid is lucky hegot picked to get something, if its even true that he got picked.

That's hysterical. Every once in awhile, a news association will get wind of a story created the the satirical news site, TheOnion.com, not follow up on the facts and then post it as if it's true.

As for the "Make-a-Wish Foundation", I'd have to say this is a great charity. One of my co-worker's granddaughter (5yrs old) died the weekend before this past Christmas from a brain tumor. The "Make-a-Wish Foundation had granted her, her wish last year where they hole family went to Disney. So, despite the satirical nature of this video, I would suggest that a donation of 5 or 10 bucks to this charity is money well spent.

I didn't actually see the clip on that onion site or what ever, I saw it on another site and it looked pretty legit to me at first. I questioned the comments they were making but figured it's american news so they were just being harsh. You can all have a laugh at my expense I'm still going to buy some more gunebo fish on monday though[8D]
