This guy, who began the ARK (Acts of Random Kindness) movement sold hugs to bring a homeless guy to dinner. Read the info with the video too. Here's their website - http://www.arkhq.com/
If only there were more people around like this.

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    I think that's a "GREAT" idea & a very touching story... :clap::clap::clap::clap::clap:

    There should also be HUGS for all of the abused WOMEN & CHILDREN!!!
    Let's not forget giving HUGS for abused and neglected animals too!!!


    I'm in need of a REALLY big HUG myself.... :(

    ((((((((((( HUGS ))))))))))))

    Wish you were here...
