He was the first one to give us money for our Halloween party.

All of (Selma's) area businesses have been good about donating services or giving us money to help with Cops and Kids Day,

I misremember who first was cruel enough to nurture the cocktail party into life. But perhaps it would be not too much to say, in fact it would be not enough to say, that it was not worth the trouble.

I went to a party at the Playboy Mansion once. For a Halloween Party. And everyone wasn't in costume, or if they were they were little bunnies or something, and I went as Michael Jackson.

We had it just to have a party, and since we were having a party, we wanted the money to go to a good cause. Now I think the fundraising for CARC is what's really important, it's what's taken over.

It's a lot of money. ... I think it shows that the party is serious about keeping the seat.
