Free Ice Cream Shortage Continues!

This time courtesy of spammers, who so charmingly resulted in my awaking to find more than 2100 e-mails in one of the inboxes this morning.

A PayPal Ooops

I want to thank everyone for the public and private words of encouragement.  You have no idea how much they mean, help, and are appreciated! 

I also want to thank everyone who has been donating here or at PMI.  We are off to a good start, and it gives me hope that we might be able to raise the money fairly quickly. 

Unfortunately, I have to report that the inevitable bug in the system has been found.  Actually, the bug may have been a factor for a couple of years now.  Apparently, a couple of years ago, a change in the system created a pathway to nowhere for my PayPal button.  After getting some comments and e-mail indicating people were donating but not seeing any activity, I began checking and got PayPal to start some checking.  I quickly created a brand new button and installed it which does work, and thanks to JanB for the successful test.  Glad I didn’t wait, as PayPal didn’t bother to suggest this obvious idea until this morning…

The problem is with the donations that went we know not where. 

If you have made a donation anywhere over the last two years and up until about 3 p.m. Eastern yesterday that I have not acknowledged, please hold/halt/cancel that donation and resubmit using the current button.  I apologize for this, and appreciate your donations and your time very much.  Thank You!

May this be the worst glitch that I have to deal with in regards this embed!

Well, What Do You Think?

Personally, I think Phin has done an outstanding job and the artwork provided by the illustrious Chris Muir rocks!  But, what matters is what you think.  So, let me know.

A Declaration

The ideas and opinions expressed by me are mine and mine alone.  They do not represent the view of any other author, authority, or non-authority blowhard; any U.S. federal, state, or local government agency or administration; the Politburo, the pirates of lower Arbat street, the Diet, or any other foreign government, government agency, or administration; any employer or client; any spouse or significant other; any past, present, or future mother-in-law, in-law, out-law, cousin, aunt, uncle, or other relative; any friend, acquaintance, co-worker, or that strange person down at the coffee shop; any supervisor or person supervised; any organization for which work is done on a paid or volunteer basis; the dog, the cat, and most especially the wolves; and, are neither approved or disapproved by any employer, client, member of the government, or any corporation or other business entity.  If any person, agency, organization, employer, or other desires to pre-approve content, they can bite me, knowing that I bite back and have been learning from the best.  If any person, agency, organization, employer, or other desires to chastise, reprimand, discipline, demand changes, or otherwise express opprobrium for my thoughts and work posted here, there, anywhere, or even in private, they may do so as allowed by law; however, I once again suggest they bite me.  All provisions, decisions, declarations, demarcations, and other are subject to availability and no warranty or guarantee is expressed or implied.  Tag, tax, and title are extra. 

Any comment or post by another author belongs to them and is their problem, not mine; and, leaving said post or comment up here, there, or elsewhere does not imply or acknowledge acceptance, agreement, or even that it has been read.  Comments are subject to the rules as set forth in comments policy, and registering and posting is agreement to and with said policies.  Comments are subject to counter-commentary, praise, ridicule, change, deletion, alteration, or pretty much whatever I choose to do either upon mature reflection, profound thought, or wild hair on a whim.  Regardless of category of the latter, all decisions are final and not subject to appeal, redress, or even to be given a dress.  While the right to an opinion is respected, there is no legal, moral, or ethical requirement that all opinions have to be respected, because quite frankly, some of them are so poorly thought out, posited, or considered so as to be beyond idiotic.  Nor do I acknowledge or accept that all opinions have equal value and acceptance by myself or anyone else.  They don’t.  Deal with it. 

This concludes the declaration, and we return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

Your Suggestions Sought

I am helping a colleague put together some panel proposals for the upcoming Blogworld & New Media Expo and would appreciate your assistance.  For this proposal, he/we need suggestions for university/college blogs; that is, blogs done by colleges and universities, or by particular schools within such institutions.  We also would like to get some good student blogs recommended, and those students can be full-time, part-time, local, long-distance, or purple with pink polka dots.  Suggestions anyone?
