> [@Miss Purl McKnittington](#): > > Many thanks, **Graycat**. You’ve made my day, absolutely. I will definitely pay it forward–there may soon be a women’s shelter in the area receiving a donation in the name of Grey T. Katt. (I’ve decided your middle name is Theosophus–is that okay?) Women’s shelter donation is great; Theosophus is an ironic middle name for an atheist, but no objection. ---

Well, since I just got my disability check and then landed my dream job I’m so damned happy I’ll front for anybody (2 or 3) who’s been left out so far. I’d go through the thread and see but it gets tough to tell who’s covered whom. Just post a reply and we’ll get going. ---

I received my replacement card today and I am able to help sponsor someone in need. Email me and we’ll work it out. raindog ---

God, I hate to have to post this. I just found out a PayPal transfer I made won’t register until Monday. :smack: I will be glad to PayPal the money to any good soul who can pre-pay for me before the deadline. ---

If anyone would be kind enough to reup for me, I would be grateful. I can repay them too, contact me via my profile and let me know where to send the money to. We do not have a credit card, nor do we have a Paypal account. Last year I sent money to my parents in return for them paying my subscription, but they cannot do so this year. They have given up their credit card, so cannot help me. ---

I lost quite a bit on the 2.30 last Sunday and some fellows with dyed hair, tattoos and implements that suggest they are in the charcuterie business have been following me around since. I’m not due to re-up until August, but if anyone (or even better _everyone_, we are a community after all 🙂 ) can lend me the $14.95 now, then I don’t think I’ll need to ask again come August. Well, I’m pretty sure I can make that commitment (how I fear being labelled with that most heinous of SDMB appellations: “liar” 😉 ), but just in case they bring the season forward from September, can we say we’ll review the financial situation in the fulness of time? Peace or ;j R.O.T. ---

You very kindly re-upped me, in email I told you I would be computerless for a day or so. My child took the computer to a LAN night and kindly reformatted the bloody thing! Please email me so I can have your details again! The child has been justly throttled 😃 ---

Well, that’s funny: I put in Roger Thornhill as a user name but it gave the subscription to George Kaplan. How’d that happen. 😉 You should be good to go. ---

I need help with re-subscribing, since it appears I have spyware & I’m afraid to use my ccard online right now. Today’s the last day to save my cherished Charter Membership. I’ll send a check immediately! ---

How’d that happen. 😉 > > You should be good to go. **MM** , I don’t know what to say! Your kindness is unnecessary and way beyond the call of duty. I owe you one, so next time yours is up for renewal, drop me a line and I’ll step up to the plate. You _did_ realise I was joking, right? But please whisper it quietly, as I know that type of thing is frowned on in ATMB. And to make matters worse, when I got a “Renewal” email from an address purporting to be SDMB, I forwarded it to Tuba and Dexter as a spoof. In good faith - not the spoof, my report thereof. So the biter’s been bit, I guess you could say. ---

Well I know you were kidding now, **RT**. 🙂 Anybody who uses _charcuterie_ in a post can’t be serious. No worries. Minnie Mouse would divorce me. Enjoy. And you’re entirely welcome, **Mary**.
