Didn’t you already have a $1000 bet going a month or two ago?

Cornrow,

Interesting proposition for the non-profit. I’m a little interested in what you’ll be doing with that.

Also, if you plan on taking it farther, like to the point of actually creating a 501c non-profit (if you’re in the USA, anyway), you may want to look into hitting the local university’s law school.

A while back, some friends and I were working to create a non-profit to promote the arts in our city. We found that the law school offered free legal advice to non-profit organizations (or those starting one). It provides good, real-world practice to the students (overseen by faculty), and provides a much-needed service to non-profit groups.

Anyway, something to think about. Don’t get too hard on yourself with oversleeping (though I admire the dedicated bet you’re placing). ;)
