I can sponsor someone. ---

I’ll sponsor two people if (on the honor system) they’ll make a donation for the twice the amount of a membership to a secular medical charity of their choice when their finances improve. (PM me though; as I’ve said so many times ‘I’m not comfortable with doing it publicly, especially when there’s money involved’.) ---

I would like to request sponsorship for the next year. I’m in India for the next few months and possibly a year or more, and can’t pay in US dollars or other foreign currency right now. Thank You. ---

[/QUOTE] I’ll gladly hook you up, but like I told **Zebra** , I’m already paid so far up in advance because of other generous Dopers, that to do so I’d have to have your password. So if you’re interested, send it to me and then log out. I’ll be finished in a jiffy. ---

[QUOTE=Frank] Rick’s post #90 has a workaround for that. [/QUOTE] I see. I thought it was the same as I had been trying that wouldn’t let it go through because my own subscription is paid up until 04-2009. However, that does appear to work. Now my next question is, how do you use it if PayPal is your method of choice? ---

If that workaround works ( ahem… ), then I can sponsor a Doper. Email me through my profile info. Cartooniverse ---

[QUOTE=Contrapuntal] How about my six years in purgatory. Who’s going to apologize for that? Huh? [/QUOTE] Sorry. I kept meaning to pick you up but they kept showing episodes of _Carter Country_ I’d never seen before, then there were the _Alice_ marathons and then my stint in the Peace Corps Reserves- I just didn’t get around to it. And you made some nice friends, all those dead Buddhists wouldn’t have been there if they weren’t nice and some of those abortions are just cute as the Dickens. NOW, I’ve apologized, can we please get on with our life without you always having to go into the Limbo Schtick whenever someone pisses you off? Oh, you said Purgatory, sorry. That wasn’t me.
