If everyone just sent me 1 dollar, I could get out of my financial hole. If I get enough positive responses, I will post my address. Thank You WillyK ---

I’ll send it next day express via UPS, but only if you cover the postage for me. ---

Ahh, Willy, really, you have a good idea. But, your timing sucks. A few months ago, with about 500 posts under my belt, I started a rather-public net.relationship with a fellow Doper (check my sig). In a thread I started asking for advice on finding cheap international airfare to visit the aforementioned Doper, someone suggested everyone chipping in a dollar or two to send to me. AFAIK, no one did, and I certainly didn’t want it (need, that’s another question…). It didn’t happen, but no one jumped down his throat like people are and will do to you. So, hang out here for a bit, get to know us, let us get to know you. Then, get involved with a Doper not of your continent, and see if anyone proposes chipping in a dollar to your cause. Best of luck, Montfort ---

After that post, I actually kinda want to chip in a buck or two to the “Help Montfort get some lovin’” fund. ---

I scraped up the funds and bought my ticket. I’m leaving three weeks from Friday night (on 17 Nov), and I’ll be there a week. If (and when, hopefully) a “Help pay for Montfort and Anniz’s honeymoon” thread starts, I’ll remember your offer, though. 🙂 ---

If it makes you feel any better, each doper would need to send me about $3.00. Yes, even in debt I must be competitive… 😉 ---

I’ll send you a buck, **WillyK**. Just as soon as you send me the $7.99 for shipping and handling. ---

Unfortunately, I’ve already pledged $1.50 to help the Chicago Reader purchase a new server, so I’m kinda tapped out at the moment. ---

I sent all my spare money to Bear\_Nenno.
