It is not in any way a bold statement that, in these times especially, there is no shortage of outlets where we can focus our positive energy and action.

WorleyGig Dot Com Honors Wear Purple Wednesday
If you live out on the West Coast or, even better, Hawaii, and haven’t yet managed to get yourself dressed and out of the house, I just wanted to give you a head’s up that today is Wear Purple Wednesday. Wear Purple Wednesday aims to raise awareness of Gay Rights by honoring recent gay teen suicides and hate crime victims that have made headlines in the past few weeks.
