This thread every year drives home the greatness of this board. I can’t help, nor do I need help, but cheers to you all who did.

It’s late, it has been a very bad day, and my focus is wandering. I cannot tell if anyone still needs help, but should that be the case, please e-mail or PM me. I am in a position to help, which in and of itself is unusual. Don’t let this once in a lifetime offer slip away!

[QUOTE=Frank]  
**Sevastopol** and **Tengu** , I have fucked up, and extended my subscription for two years instead of yours for one year each. I’ll get it straightened out.

That would explain the pricing discrepancy.

So do we have everyone so far? If not, or if someone else needs a hand, I can help out. If you’re too shy (or proud) to post here, you can PM me or drop me an email.

[I’ve never gotten a PM here - it would thrill me to get one.)

Another $7.48 sponsorship request from a Charter Member here. I can’t afford to re-up. **Encinitas** has generously donated a goodly sum of money to me recently (sorry to embarrass you, but no good deed can go unpunished 😉 ), but it all went straight into a combination of rent/paying off debt and I’m still at least a couple thousands of dollars in the hole. Sometimes I wonder how it even happened–I was always in such control of my finances, and then it started with me putting food and gas on my credit card while I was out of a job for the longest month of my life, and then roommates bailed on the power bill, I got some traffic tickets, my gym blocked my cancellation request and all of a sudden it feels like I’m a mile deep and digging fast. Anyway, hopefully I can pay it forward by sponsoring a number of Dopers whenever I get on my feet.

**Omi no Kami** , it’s great to see a fellow linguistics student here. A thread I started about a year ago asking for insight from linguists fell on deaf ears, and after my recent change-of-major I’ve feared that I may be the only one here.

And to **Encinitas** , **cherryc** who sponsored me a few years ago, and everyone else here offering a hand to their fellow Dopers–I wish I knew an atheist way to say this–God bless your souls.

I got you covered and you can even pass on the blessing to me. I’m just an agnostic. Good luck and enjoy another year.

I can sponsor someone, too. PM or e-mail to my user name at gmail if you don’t want to post. I’ll be gone for the rest of the day (it’s 10:40 a.m. here), but I’ll check when I get home tonight.
