'Good lord, no.' BWAHAHAHAHA! That exchange is hilarious, as is this comic as a whole. Wonderful work. It does suck that the allowance for miles driven as a volunteer is stuck in the nineties, when miles for other pursuits aren't. Hopefully, that'll change soon, and we won't have to suffer a complete drop in volunteerism to get it to happen. ‘Girl scout troop leader?’

It's at http://www.energizeinc.com/hot/2008/08june.html. We're going to link to your blog page in our "Response" area. Of course, they'll all get distracted by the very funny cartoon, but that's ok! :-) Thanks for making some excellent points. Susan Dear Nick –

A pizza kitchen would be much more marketable. I would personally love to go to a lasagna kitchen or a brat kitchen. In fact, why does it have to be a kitchen at all? Why can't we serve hungry people in the living room with a big screen tv? I think Kyle is right. A pizza kitchen would be much more marketable.

I never keep records about charitable donations and always forget by the end of the year, so I just make something up in April. Maybe I should start keeping better records.

Thanks for the laugh ... you crack me up. As for volunteer miles ... I would love to volunteer if someone else would volunteer to take care of my kids while I helped the elderly or infirm. Oh gosh, I would volunteer all.the.time. Oh my gosh that cartoon is awesome. Thanks for the laugh … you crack me up.

We also just keep a small notebook in each car, and it's there whenever we need it. I agree that it’s not that difficult to keep track of mileage.
