Rich Brooks is Back in Jail

Yes, it's true I'm going to be locked up in a Mexican prison. However, that prison is Tortilla Flat out in Westbrook, and by helping raise my bail, you'll be helping the MDA keep up the fight against muscular dystrophy.

Last year I had to raise $600; this year I need to raise $650. (Apparently, the cost of buying one's freedom has gone up.) If I don't, I'll have to man the phones asking strangers for bail money.

My mom told me never to speak to strangers! You can see the dilemma I'm in!

Just to sweeten the pot, anyone who donates $50 or more to my bail will get a link to a Web page of their choice from this blog. (I reserve the right not to link to anything offensive.)

The MDA serves people with neuromuscular disease by providing clinics, support groups, assistance with the purchase and repair of wheelchairs, braces and communication devices, and summer camp for kids. MDA also funds research grants to help find treatments and cures for some 43 neuromuscular diseases that affect people of all ages.

So please help me raise funds to keep up the fight against muscular dystrophy.

Donors:

• Dr. Robert Brooks and Marilyn Brooks
