Johnny, it's your power that brought us this far!
Yes, it's all about Johnny bringing out the best in us.

One more confirmation of just how special he is . . . and how lucky we are, to have him to inspire us.

...And how lucky we are to be provided with the chance to say a thank you him, in a way, I think that's more powerful than a fan letter.

I thought and thought about what to say..and the only thing that came to mind was "Holy smoley". It's overwhelming. It's amazing the kindness that Johnny brings out in those who love him so...

I came across this quote today - it's from a Dean Koontz novel of all things - but it seems to apply so well:

“Each small act of kindness reverberates across great distances and spans of time, affecting lives unknown to the one whose generous spirit was the source of the good echo, because kindness is passed on and grows each time it is passed, until simple courtesy becomes an act of selfless courage years later and far away.”

Johnny’s kindness has inspired us, and we pass the kindness on… to children who really need it. And somehow, I’m sure it won’t end there.

Happy Birthday, Johnny. And thanks.

And thanks to all those at the Zone who made this remarkable gift possible!

Great quote RR...it is the philosophy I have lived on for a long time. I had a number of very rough years...slept in my car, on friend's couches, which I would go through for change to buy cigarettes and beer !

I wouldn't have survived except for the extraordinay kindness of people who gave me things they had. Some who barely knew me. Just nice people. Gave me money...furniture, clothing. I can't ever go back and pay them ... so instead I try to do a kindness to another...and round it goes...

It's one of the reasons I love Johnny and this place ... a zone of good people...looking out for each other...maybe one of the children in the hospital who will benefit from our pennies will grow up and discover something wonderful like a cure for a disease, or be a teacher and inspire somone else..or an actor even!!

I am a hopeless romantic...but I like to believe in positive energy. Or Karma as this hippie calls it. It's real. And dear Mr. Depp inspires a great deal of it.

BTW - PtP...we have been holding on to our hats for quite a few days now...might I ask...

"Permission to throw my hat in the air???"

Oh, definitely. It is certainly the opportune moment.

I'll take care of that. Just part of the job. That's why I get the big bucks.

What a fantastic total for the American Family Children's Hospital. I'm sure the staff of this wonderful establishment are grateful and astonished over the generosity of Johnny Depp fans who just in the simple act of showing our love for this talented and wonderful man cheerfully made donations that will make the children who are in need of medical care and their families who are going through such scary times be a bit more comfortable. Congratulations to the ladies of the Zone for coming together and making Johnny's birthday project such a resounding success.

Here's to ya
