Nice avatar, Jerry.  And thanks for the (expected) missive.

Dark Side of the Moon - isn't the song "Money" on that album? :wink:
And in my case, M.M.........so is " Brain Damage" :cheers:
I`d never advocate drugs,alcohol,violence or insanity to anyone...But they work for me.

Wow, what a nice feeling of endorsement.  So far this site has received donations (since my request of a few days ago) from (in no particular order):

Joe Daly
Justin Calkins
John Maguire
Tom Smith
Scott Bearisto
Jim Leininger
Joel Wolcott
Johnson's Machine and Performance
Bob Bakker
James Stewart
Rob Lambert
Jack Broomall
Chris Conrad

If I've missed anyone -- feel free to jump in and rattle my cage.  These donations all arrived via Paypal -- if you've mailed something it'll take a while to get here.

Thank you all very much.  To those of you that haven't yet offered a buck or ten to help keep landracing.com going -- well, unh -- either do so -- or make sure you thank these kind folks for doing what they've done for the good of the site.

It's on the page that shows up when you click on the "Help Support landracing.com" button on the home page of this site, but we're going to get that button over to this Foirum, too.  In the meantime, it's 509 Dukes Road, Skandia, Michigan 49885.  Thanks for asking.

Yes it do -- at least here in Upper Michigan.  I tried it a few seconds ago and got through right away.  Try again?

Or do you mean the Dukes Road address doesn't work?  We got mail at that address today.

Slim,

Okay I finally figured out it was me and not the "button" that didn't work.  A small token of my thanks has been send via Paypal...

The "help support" button only takes you to instruction on how to donate. So read the information and it will tell you how to do make a snail mail or Paypal donation.

For those of you using Paypal just log into your Paypal account and click on the "Send Money" tab.
Put:  jonwennerberg@nancyandjon.org  in the "To" box and then put the donation you want to make in the "Amount" box. That's all there is to it....

Thanks.  Bob's got me working to set up an easier way -- so you don't have to go there and then enter my email addy.  Pretty soon, hey?  Thanks again, everybody.

Hey -- there's a pair of Paypal buttons on this site now.  There's one up near(er) the top of the home page, and it goes directly to Paypal - not to another page where you still need to stand on your head and blow bubbles through a straw. 

And then there's also one on the home page of the Forum -- in the middle, near the top - hard to miss.  Finally -- maybe the site will get more donations and I'll get fewer folks asking how to donate.

Thanks for all of the funds you've sent to keep the site running.  Things are fine for now, but that doesn't mean I couldn't use a little now and then to make sure that we stay ahead of the wolves.

TTFN.
