April showers bring May flowers [update the third; newer posts below]

As you all know, my contract with PJM expired April 1, leaving me without any income from the site. Rather than go to a pay or subscription model, I’m content at this time to hold quarterly fundraisers with the hope that I can match the previous income level (which was itself a step down from my initial agreement with PJM).

– And this is the very first of those quarterly fundraisers.

And what better time to hold one? After all, I’ll be gone for a week or so (my seminar in Chicago is fast approaching, and I have to prepare), so all the little snotty comments that routinely arise about how I do this solely for money, etc., will miss their mark.

Timing, you see.

Nuance.

Amazon discontinued its Honor System, I believe. Which leaves only PayPal (quite secure these days, rest assured). For your convenience, you’ll find the button located on the left of your screen.

As always, you are under no obligation to give me a damn thing. If you decide to do so, thanks in advance. If you don’t or can’t contribute, I understand; maybe I can apply for some sort of bailout — if I promise to pay myself union wages, and insist that I let myself retire early with a full pension and benefits.

Because yes we can!

update 3 With 4 days left I’m at about 60% of where I hope to be at the end of each quarter. Thanks so much to all of you who have contributed!

    Feeling an urge to a touch of bulimia, anyone? Need a little stimulus to get the regurgitation flowing? Try out a bit of Nancy Pelosi interviewed by Judy Woodruff at PBS. Don’t worry about that backflow though, Nancy will be seeing to your health care needs.

    I mean, the overriding equity to be weighed is, how do we get quality health care for all Americans? Health care is a right, not a privilege. All of this is process. It’s inside Washington talk. What does it mean to the American people?

    By one process or another [ i.e., budget reconciliation, cutting off the filibuster], we are going to get them what they want, and that is quality health care that is affordable and accessible to them, a healthier America, not just health care, but prevention and good health.

    Horowitz, Frum, LGF et al. get their headline out of the Politico: “Anti-Obama talk worries some on right”. Man those Journo’s loves them their “some”.

    At least the margins of your blog are not cluttered with crap anymore. It was strange when you took your fishin trip, I actually focused on what those ads were. God they sucked.

    Unfortunately, I’m snotless at the moment. Pine pollen doesn’t affect my allergies, and the stuff that does apparently has yet to blossom.

    I have it on good authority that the cash will come pouring in if you include the magic code word “global warming.” Better yet, you don’t have to subject your data and methodologies to peer scrutiny.

    BECAUSE OF THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD!

    ok i did it and I think by jiggering with my paypal I am just happyfeet – tell me if it tells you my double super secret identity so I know how it works … I kinda wanted to stay super super anonymous to where I’m not happyfeet even like how Amazon did it but I was too lazy to make a whole new email account that wasn’t happyfeet or that kid what plays happyfeet on the internet… just a sec… I want to check something… ok – also I made a donation with my Amex which I think should also be just happyfeet – let me know – last night I was in my paypal account and I noticed the interest rate on it was stupid low so I moved the paypal monies to a more better account so I only had a little left in there and you were kinda getting cheated so that’s why the two transactions. okey dokey then.

  13. Comment by prairiemain on 4/4 @ 5:23 pm #

    Yours is a voice we’d hate to lose especially with so many on the right concerned … concerned, I tell you … about our lack of nuance. After all, none of them are fat, smoke cigars or have former drug problems. Right? Of course, few of them have multi-million dollar media contracts, either, but that’s beside the point under the Big Tent.

    Time to pony up a few bucks.

    Christopher, if we donate, we are officially allowed to call ourself a “minion.” And, there’s the decoder ring with a minimum donation of $20.

    You’ll get ALL the jokes.

  16. Comment by Swen Swenson on 4/4 @ 6:23 pm #

    Not to worry McGehee, I’m snotful enough for both of us. Oddly, I seem to be developing an alergy to hops. I drink a couple of IPAs and my sinuses go wild. I guess I’ll just have to be happy with the cheap stuff! !$^%@@#$!!!

    In the mean time I guess I don’t need the cash, so I’m contributing to your delinquency.

  17. Comment by Swen Swenson on 4/4 @ 6:35 pm #

    A decoder ring? Well dayum, I’ll be waiting by the mailbox! All things considered though, pitchforks might be more appropriate, and I’ve already got mine, thanks!

    Somehow, I’ve a feeling Jeff will still be here long after PJ Media is gone. BTW, Jeff, have you considered running several sidebar ads advertising Protein Wisdom? Seems like most of the PJ Media sidebar ads I see advertise PJ Media, which must pay a ton of money :D

    I’m thinking Simon is following the business model outlined by Robert Heinlein in his story about the guy who worked at the courthouse polishing the brass cannon. He finally got fed up with his job, bought a brass cannon, and went into business for himself.

    I think I’ll watch Shine A Light again. Good flick even if Bill Clinton was the host and it’s comforting to know that I could live to be 200 and never look as old as Keith Richards. I’ve a feeling it’s not the make, it’s the mileage..

  36. Comment by Lost My Cookies on 4/5 @ 7:50 am #

    I used to have a killer poster in my dorm of Jimmy Cliff from the Harder They Come. I bought it from a shop on the boardwalk in Wildwood, NJ. The reason I remember it was that the girl behind the counter was wearing a fringed half-shirt with a picture of a caterpillar humping a french fry. I thought that was hilarious. Still do.

    It was also the first time I saw under-boob out in the wild, and that, according to my therapist, is why I have a fetish for chicks who’ll knife you for a Newport.

    God I miss the 80’s.

    Jeff, I really think if you just set up some AdSense ads, or added your own set of affilliate banners you would make something.

    Check out Commission Junction (CJ.com) or ClickBank.com and see about their programs.

    a fetish for chicks who’ll knife you for a Newport

    A fetish? All guys don’t have this?

    But I question the timing here. The first time you saw underboob, was at a time when you had a dorm room? I hope you were a bad, bad, bad little boy and that you were in military school.

    It was also, evidently, the last decade in which Villanova could hit free throws.

    Reversion to the mean is a bitch.

    I couldn’t even watch. I’m one of those Philly fans who think that good things will happen if you stop watching the bad things. Didn’t work this time.

    Oh, and Jeff, I’m unemployed at the moment, but since I just learned I passed the Bar, I thing I’ll drop some coin in your tin cup.

    Jeff Goldstein could make, in relative terms, a shit-load of money doing something other than this, if money were what he were all about. Clearly, it’s not. It’s like a stipend in graduate school. The money keeps you alive and breathing while you do your work.

    Ah, in the early 70’s it was Brigantine, in the 80’s it was the Block that Rocks. ‘course I was slumming from one island north, but if you were going to get the shit kicked out of you for wearing a belt with little whales on it around your madrass shorts, Wildwood was the place.

  50. Comment by Lost My Cookies on 4/5 @ 2:22 pm #

    Freedom, it was underboob in the wild. It was free, didn’t have to pay for it, just hanging out in public. Muffy, Buffy, and Missy didn’t do that. Still don’t if Chad, Douglas, and Michelle are to be believed.

    The way I see it, new shoes for my kid might keep his feet safe while he runs but aren’t going to do anything to stop the slow, steady march of fascism over the US Constitution and all of our freedoms.

    See what I did there?

    Yeah! Yeah you did!

    Uh! Uh! Uh!

    Lefty boilerplate is funny, but not so appropriate now with Obama in the White House. Honestly, a PW shirt would be good because it would give you free advertising. I’d wear it to the gym, especially if it was one of those cute ones that actually fit, and not a boy shirt in girl sizes.

    Jeff, of course, I don’t do paypal, so you’re going to have to shoot me your addy (again) and I’ll start setting a bit aside. I work one-month ahead, so it may not be until May first, but I think that would still be quicker than the last time I sent you $$.

    I think I’ve still got your address from the last time I sent a check. Is it still the same? I don’t want to do the PayPal thing – there is a less than zero chance I would ever give out a bank account number to them, and I don’t want to hit the credit card.

    Ever think about doing an online seminar on intentionalism? Think of it like an advanced class – an opportunity for a little extra interaction. Perhaps we could do a write up on what we learn and you could comment on how well we’re grasping the concepts? I think I’d pay for such a thing.

    I just sent you all of my beer money for the month. I’m going to have to borrow against next month’s beer money to make up for the difference, but I should be able to leverage that with a credit default swap indirectly backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. In fact, I think I’ve just created more wealth in this process, so I’m going to give myself a bonus to buy more beer. Thanks Jeff, for helping me to create this surplus!

    I had said i was going to contribute monthly, but since you are doing quarterly I just set 3 months worth in. Will do the same every quarter.

    If we manage to get to the Lansing Tea Party on April 15th I’m going to make up a T-shirt with Protein Wisdom on it to wear, using those ink-jet transfer things. Now if the weather would just get Spring like instead of this snow.

    Have you received a dime from my favorite thor-chaser, wee witless Wusty, yet Jeff?

    Maybe coughing up a $100 will shatter his chances of attending summer space camp. Uranus, my anus, a galaxy of anuses, a summer spent staring at poo chutes ain’t cheap, at least not on his allowance, anyway.

    Let me know when/if Wusty’s thor-chaser fee has been paid in full.

    The change you are waiting for was sent yesterday. Enjoy! The one trillllllion dollars I sent you was just a start, really, because the evils of the Bush administration were deep and long. Much more money will be needed to heal America from its long string of stunning success stories. Besides, I put the one trilllllllion dollars on my credit card so I actually didn’t spend any money at all.

    Tweety is the biggest money-making looney tune as far as licensing and stuff goes. I think that’s a global stat though so I don’t think it says anything about who we are as a people.
