Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Oh, thanks for the font!

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

Not sure what DX used in his original rendering.

I did the original in Altamira Composer.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Hmmm, this is sort of a policy question and a request.

Stompies need email addresses for somebody to be registered? Would a stompy consider emailing Gus to find out if he's okay? Or letting him know we're back up. Don't know if that would be considered a breach of privacy for Gus, but (a) I don't think he'd treat it as such and (b) starting to get worried about him.

I was thinking about him today, too, Hec.

ITA, Hec. I miss our Gus.

Gus' email isn't marked as private. You can click on his name on any of his posts and grab it. For instance, this one: Gus "Natter 12: We've said it like a dozen times" May 23, 2003 1:06:05 pm PDT

Heya,

We got a letter from My Friend's Place thanking us for the donation we made from the sale of raffle tix at F2F:

Dear Allyson,

Thank you for your generous gift of $110.00 in honor of Mr. Tim Minear from his fans at Buffistas.org on 6/12/2003. Your contribution to My Friend's Place is greatly appreciated.

Your gift makes it possible for My Friend's Place to continue its mission: to inspire and assist the homeless and high risk youth of Los Angeles to build self-sufficient lives.

Through your generosity My Friend's Place wil provide meals, clothes, and the opportunity to see a doctor or other health care professional, and guidance to homeless young people in Los Angeles.

On behalf of us at My Friend's Place, thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

David Brinkman

Executive Director

My question is, since this letter is a tax deductible receipt (and I have one from First Book and another from Heifer.org), should these go to Jesse or ita?

Can this help in any way with board operating costs? Probably not, but in any case, should we have a person in charge of actual paper records such as this?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'd send them to the money lady, Jesse.

Jesse, you up for keeping the records of charitable donations? If so, send me your addie, and I'll make a copy for me in case the IRS starts questioning me and all of my glorious charity work.
