Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Currently my personal stuff is mixed in with the buffistas stuff.
Oh, if you're using that PayPal account for personal stuff then it totally makes sense to set up a new one for Buffista donations.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, now I just have to get everything sorted out. It'll be a good thing in the end, though.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Sorry, Jesse. I was just teasing. You've done a great job. I was treasurer for a soccer league for awhile, so I know what a pain it can be.

And, DX, if I were actually offended, you'd know it. :)

Whee!! Thank you, ita and Jesse.

Perhaps the PayPal link could go on the left nav, between the "E-mail admins" and the "Buffista links"? Or even be part of the block of board related links that ends with "E-mail admins."

We don't have any planned expenses for another 11 months, so I don't know if it's needed?

Fair enough. I was just thinking of where it might go since it was discussed.

I hear you. I just have a thing about asking for money when we don't know what we need it for yet. It's swell that people continue to send it, but I don't want to be in anyone's face about it. I figure in the fall, we'll reevaluate our hosting needs and see what we need then.

I also want to state, for the record, how awesome I think it is that such a relatively small group of people, giving voluntarily, are making this whole site available for everyone. So, thanks again, you guys!

Jesse, big love to you for being Treasurer.

I say we have a $ button, even if we don't *need* it, because it never hurts to save for a rainy day, and I know I'm profligate with my money. If I'm flying around the net randomly contributing money to things, I think it should at least be lovable things like Buffistas.
