Latest news on observers in El Salvador. All observers have gotten through safely, been released. However there is another batch coming through tomorrow. So we are still asking for calls to the U.S. Embassy in El Salvador - this time thanking them for seeing to it that the first batch of observers got through safely, and and asking them to ensure that this does not happen with the next batch.
Please call Annie Pforzheimer, the Counselor for Poltical Affairs. 011-503-278-4444. X2025 Again thank her and the Ambassodor for helping to get the first batch of observers in safely, and emphasize that it is just as important that the next batch is allowed to enter, that no further harassment of election observers takes place, and that free and fair elections take place this month in El Salvador.
Thanks
Gar
$2971.00 in the Nilly North American Tour Fund.
I'm going to stop taking donations at some arbitrary hour when I get home, tonight.
We rule. We're bringing Nilly here.
We've got $3000.62 for her plane fare, and I think that's good enough to ensure Nilly's safe passage. 62 Buffistas have donated, and I'm told to expect a few checks.
I'll hold the money in trust until Nilly decides on an itinerary, and then buy her ticket.
Then we'll schedule Nilly airport pick-ups, and Nilly hosts to feed and house our Nilly, when the time draws near.
Thank you so much, everyone.
I suck.
There was confusion. Which led to the wrong snail mail address being posted for the NickBrendon.com Postcard Birthday Project, in which I encouraged people to send postcards with pictures of their hometown for me to compile and give to Nick.
The real address:
NB.com Birthday Project
c/o FanGeek.com
3775 E.P. True Parkway #147
West Des Moines, IA 50265
I sincerely apologize for an inconvenience this will cause. I'm also going to extend the deadline for postcards to April 12.
If this deadline won't provide you with enough time to get a card to me, please e-mail me at postcards@nickbrendon.com and let me know when I can expect your card. I'll keep an eye out for it and send them off to Nicholas in a second batch.
If anybody's interested...

(Edited because the pimpage lacks both shams and shame, but I meant to use only one and stick with it)
OK - Don't know where else to put on such short notice, but ARRESTED DEVELOPMONT fans should note that according to my TV Guide (hard copy) a new episode is on at 9:30 EST.
I also note that Arrested Development will do a series of reruns from the pilot on, on Sunday.
