And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

I am also doing a collection thing. Email me at my profile addy if you would like to know more, would like to contribute, or would like to email me for some other, unrelated reason.

My profile addy is also my Paypal address, so you can just contribute blindly without knowing the details, if you like that sort of thing, which I don't necessarily recommend. (Sorry for the cryptic...I'm trying to keep the giftee in the dark for the moment. We'll see how long I'm able to sustain that.)

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Thanks, Jen. I think that's probably the better way to go.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm doing the collecting for Maria! It's out of the bag now, so I don't have to be circumspect, I don't think! lisa@hopeintransit.org for that paypal, profile addy is good for whatever correspondence.

And hey, Deena, thanks for doing that for all those years!

Oh, wow, yes!

OK, making the Press post.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Erin- I just sent you paypal for your collection, but to your profile email!

Sophia -- I checked it, and I'm not showing a payment. You might want it see if it bounced back to you. If it goes to that account, no big; if it doesn't show up in the next 24 hours, I'll let you know, and you can send it to wordslinger@eringriggs.com instead.

Sorry! The WS paypal is my business account and the one that's easiest for me to use.

Our wings are not tired.

Erin, does it being a biz account mean that PayPal takes a percentage as fee?

Yes, but I am ignoring that, and sending the full donated amounts to bonny. My profile account, I don't use anymore; it's tied to an old BoA account that's I'm trying to resolve. (Boo, Hiss, BoA.)

It's not a big for me; it's a small fee, and I'm more concerned with getting the $$ to bonny, not the wee amount I'm paying OOP for the convenience...

ETA: And I'm sending it to B. as a gift, so it shouldn't have any money taken out from the amount I'm sending to her! I didn't even think of that! I hope not!

Brenda, yes.

I'm keeping all the emails for a time, so if anyone has questions, just let me know!
