    Free Hugs

    I clicked on a link from someone's signature. I can't remember who's it was now, but it led me to this.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr3x_...elated&search=

    And I think it is an awsome thing. I am inspired to start a Free Hugs Campaign right here in Richmond. Everyone needs a hug every now and then.

    The idea behind it is good, but I know that I wouldn't walk up to some guy I didn't know and hug him.

    I've hugged strangers before so its not a problem for me. I'm going to make a shirt this week and get a buddy and go to the mall or somewhere there are a lot of people and just hug people.

    I saw that a while back and cried like a little girl...it was the little old woman that got me, she was just so sweet. I think the whole thing is great...

    Re: Free Hugs

    I was in Playa Da Carman Mexico over Christmas. We went into the town and saw three ladies with a sign in english and spainish that said " Free Hugs ". Believe me these ladies had no problem getting hugs, two from me,
