Best. Job Listing. Ever.

I have somebody to write the games thingy, plus a coupla backups!

Thanks!

I'm reposting this from the Official FF Board, in case anyone wanted to contribute:

We are soliciting monetary donations in order to purchase copies of the Firefly DVD's for our troops. This effort accomplishes many goals that we can all agree are worthwhile:

1. It will provide entertainment for our soldiers. 2. It will increase sales of the Firefly DVD's. 3. It will increase the fan base, once the recipients see said DVD's! 4. It will give us an opportunity to generate more press for Firefly.

The initial campaign goal is to raise enough funds to purchase 120 copies of the DVD's for dispersal to all USO centers worldwide. Once enough money is raised to accomplish this we can focus on other groups, such as Army personnel stationed in Iraq, Afghanistan, aboard Navy ships, etc.

Donations can be made in two ways, through PayPal or by mail to Kristen [of the Firefly: Immediate Assistance campaign.]

To make your donation using PayPal, you can do one of two things:

Go to Paypal and do the contribution manually by hitting "Send Money" and then typing in:

firefly@sgcwebdesign.com.

Or, even easier, you can click on this.

[Paypal does charge a transaction fee. It is 2.9%+ $0.30 USD for US Dollars, 3.4%+ $0.55 CAD for Canadian Dollars, 3.4%+ €0.35 EUR for Euros and 3.4%+ £0.20 GBP for British Pounds Sterling.]

To make a donation the old fashioned way, you can mail your check or money order directly to:

Kristen Reidel
SGC Web Design
6101 W. Centinela Avenue, Suite 375
Culver City, CA 90230

Checks should be made payable to Kristen Reidel. Please note that if you are sending money from outside the US, you will need to purchase a money order in US DOLLARS or we will be unable to use your contribution due the high fees associated with cashing checks or money orders issued in foreign currency.

This donation drive will be open until Friday, January 30th, 2004. This gives you plenty of time to find a few extra dollars to help Serenity & her crew.

Let the giving begin!

Bay Area-istas...

I will be jetting up to your lovely burg tomorrow evening, where I will have a Christmas celebration with family tomorrow night. Then I will be in town until Sunday afternoonish, which is quite a bit of time to fill, and which I may be able to schedule some Bay-ista time in there somewhere. I'll send out a few email, but if people want to get preemptive on me, email me your phone numbers at my profile addy, so I can just call you while I'm up there, and we can figger out a thing to do together.

A friend of mine (Dave O) will be on Jeopardy tomorrow, thursday the 18th) Tune in and root him on! (He is not online here)

Yo, erinaceous!

I got the Slayer Slang book, finally! Post Office: better late than never.

Thank you!!!!

Baltimore and DCistas! (And anyone else who feels like venturing out this way.)

I'm having a Boxing Day (well, day after B.D.) party at my place.

When: December 27th, starting at around 5pm and going to whenever. (Bad weather date--January 3).

Where: My messy, messy house, with a half-remodeled bathroom, a basement full of manga, and more unfinished craft projects than any one person should possess.

Events:

• Tea and scones, followed by a late supper of whatever I'm inspired to make/buy/beg someone else to make, and varying desserts.

• Games of various sorts, if people are interested. (Let me know if you have anything fun or interesting that you'd like to inflict on an unwary crowd.)

• The First Annual Bad Gift Exchange. Every year, some well-meaning relative, friend, or co-worker gives you something tacky, tasteless, useless, inedible, smelly, allergy-inducing, pointless, or just plain awful. Re-wrap your least desireable gift and bring it with you for a special gift exchange. You may end up going home with something you like, or you may end up making a quick trip to my garbage cans on your way home.

Please RSVP by Dec 26 at my profile addy.

Buffy S6 is available for preordering on Amazon. I'm'a order it tonight, so any Buffistas who would like to be Share The Loved may ping me at my profile addy before 5 today.

You'll never believe what we have in the auction.

Angel's leather jacket? Got two. Stuff peeled from Spike's bod? That too.

And a certain piece of bling bling that can close a Hellmouth and bring your non-corporeal arse to LA.

I'll be posting more stuff after the holidays.

We're moving!

Towards that effort, I'm going to take the site down tonight at 11pm board time. Peoplesforum is the refuge in the meanwhile.

If everything goes well, the domain switchover should take a day or two to come into effect, and we'll be up at the new host before Monday.

Mailing list admins! Please make a copy of your list members -- mailing list functionality may not be up right away, or in the same way, but we'll get that as soon as possible.

If you have a subdomain, please make a copy of it also. I'll be migrating the whole thing, but every little bit of backup helps.

Ta.
