It’s Pledge Week
By Mitch Berg
I’ve been blogging away for thirteen years, now. I have an average of 600-800 people a day reading this blog – which is about 10 to 20 times more than I’d dreamed about possibly reaching when I started this blog back in 2002.
I have said this many times in the past; I’d still write every day even if nobody read me, here; writing is just part of what I am and do.
But every April in recent years I’ve passed the hat for whatever spare change people feel this blog is worth to them, provided they can spare it, and only then. Contributions mostly go toward hosting, and a few other little things (and, in some of my past years with more parlous fiscal circumstances, self-preservation; I’m not there, this year, knock wood, and I’m happy for it!)
So if you enjoy what you read here, and have a buck or two to spare, I’d be much obliged.
UPDATE: I fixed the broken button. I think. Sorry!
Either way, thanks for reading!

I’ll drop ya a dime Mitch. This is just about the only blog that hasn’t banned me, so that’s gotta be worth something.

One question. What does a year of hosting this site cost? I’d like to cover 5-10% of it personally

Your link just dumps into a generic Paypal page.

JPA – Yeah, I see that now. I’ll have to fix it. Blah.
UPDATE: Think I got it.

Swiftee. I’ve got a nice collection of souls to barter with. Plus the euro is crashing

Don’t think it’s working yet. Generic paypal account page.
