Copied from 's journal

I just got an email from my ma about my home town. About a week ago, at least 13 tornadoes touched down along the NM-TX border and one of them ripped through the middle of Clovis. It destroyed 400+ homes and businesses in Clovis alone. It ripped up 100 year old trees, tossed trailers through the bowling alley roof, ripped the roof off of the senior citizens housing, bent phone poles in half and sent air conditioning units from one of the junior high schools through the roofs of surrounding houses. It completely destroyed one of the grain silos I'd known all my life. A lot of people were injured in some way, head trauma and the like... 2 are in critical condition. 120-125 mph winds left a 3 mile long path through the center of my town. I'm so scared for people I grew up with and families I know still live there. I'm sad I can't be home to physically help in some way.

A Salvation Army truck on its way from El Paso to Clovis was looted. $1500 worth of supplies was stolen right out of the back of it and the thieves haven't been found yet.

I don't have a lot of free time on my hands right now but I want to start a fund raiser for Clovis. I don't expect to raise a lot of money but every little bit will help, y'know? So, if you're interested, I'm goin to open $3 commissions for quick head-shot sketches of your choice of character. Please send your donations through PayPal to y2jenners@cox.net. Once a good amount has been saved up I will donate the entire thing to UnitedWayENM.org for the Tornado Relief Fund. Or, if you'd rather, you can bypass me and donate directly to their website.

If you want a $3 commission please send ^^y2jenn a note with "tornado commission" as the subject and include any links to character references. Any thing from you guys will be appreciated so much.

If you aren't able to help monetarily, then please help us by passing on ^y2jenn's journal to your watchers. This is why the watch orgy comes in handy, let's make it count.

Thank you ~
