                <description><![CDATA[ &lt;p&gt;WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SUNOCO NEEDS SOME HELP TO DECIDE FOLKS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PLEASE WRITE TO THEM LIKE HURRICANE MIKE DID&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THE TROOPS WE SUPPORT ARE ALL OVER THE WORLD OF ALL NATIONS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THE ARTISTS ARE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD TO&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sunoco.ca"&gt;www.sunoco.ca&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;contact us or customer service&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;or community funding section&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear friends at Sunoco:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please consider supporting the funding of BLANK CDs for "Old Toad" Gil Leclerc's effort to supply our overseas service personnel with independently recorded music. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many of the artists that "Old Toad" Gil and his lovely wife, "Crazy-Lady Karen", have donated their resources and time in assuring that radio outlets in Khandahar Afghanistan (for example,) will have Canadian content available for those Armed Forces listeners. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This undertaking, for the last four and a half years, has be a source of solid comfort for our Troops. And Gil , along with his spouse has solely spearheaded the project working in his own spare time. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Old Toad" Gil is a breadwinner who works long hours but who still has the patience, love and dedication for our courageous men and women who have chosen to put themselves in harm's way for the purpose of peace, security and human dignity, to assemble the recordings to be shipped.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately, this noble initiative needs a financial boost or it could fail. To keep up this momentum is becoming too costly for just a few dedicated individuals. The wherewithall just isn't always forthcoming. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please read below. Thankyou for any support you can offer Gil and Karen in this matter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cheers!&lt;/p&gt;  ]]></description>
