Somebody beat us to starting a non-profit

Unfortunately, there seems to be an identical group of idiots located in Cambridge.  A group of people, who probably drink, have grown weary of their lives, and have some extra cash, started a non-profit organization called “The Awesome Foundation”.  So what are the doing with their tax-free dollars? Building giants hammocks. You should really take some time to appreciate how funny this article is. Note the awards ceremony. It’s not clear who is giving out these awards, and for what. Presumably it is for the artist, Hansy Better Barraza, but she is only getting one award. Hopefully, there will be a full press release after. Also, the group was founded in June.

I cannot believe we haven’t started a similar organization.  They pretty much covered everything I would want to do with a non-profit organization.

1. Give it an awesome name, that shows how awesome the group is. Check.

2. Fund projects that make no sense. Check.

3. Not give out enough money for it to really mean anything, but enough that you can give yourself a cool title. This is where the Awesome Foundation faulters. They have 12 trustees, but nobody has a cool title. President? Chancellor? Dictator for Life? Monarch? Supreme Grandmaster of the Universe?  You need to have fun with this.

Since the Awesome Foundation is already taken, soon, The Wicked Awesome Axl Rose Memorial Foundation will soon be established with me as the Appointed Overlord Elect.
