That's gotta run over half a million for 44 stores.

a $10,000 hour is fairly low-balling. We used to do $75,000 hours on pre-snow busy days back in the mid-90's.

His movies, although many are crazy funny, have important and significant social messages. These recent acts of kindness and generosity further demonstrate what a special person this man is.
