:bounce:

(well, I was going to donate but not until Friday when a check will be cleared in my account)

Anyone else get a nice message from Skinner?

1. Yep, and I sent him a reply
Like you, I have to wait until payday in order to have the money to donate. I told him that. Wouldn't be surprised if there is a "kick" to the boot come Friday evening.

3. Please define "nice"

If by "nice" you mean "brusque" or "needlessly forceful"...then yes

7. I donated last week. So I guess I'm safe from getting any PM's.
:) And I got my gold star! I feel like a kid in grade school who did good and got her star. :bounce:

9. Thank ye!
I'm just so darned proud of it. I feel like I really belong here.
Now all I have to do is learn all the information all of you seem to be carrying around in your heads. (I don't think my brain holds that much info at one time). ;) What I need is a Vulcan mind meld. And a quick class on writing and grammar. That's all. LOL.

16. Nope!
I donated last week and still got the PM.

Skinner, my check is in the mail for a week already.

"Dear Oneighty" the PM be saying. I be thinking somebody love me at first glance.

Hee hee.

12. Thank goodness you posted this! I was so terrified of opening mine
I hardly knew what to do. PHEW! When it turned out to be a friendly PM, I was so relieved (hey, you never know) that I donated. I was runnin' scared, I tell you, SCARED!

Always assuming the worst seems to be a family trait.

15. My first thought was "What did I do now?"
...I was so happily surprised that I promptly donated.

14. The stars finally aligned right so
I was able to donate this time and I did it before I saw the message. I'm so happy my car is finally paid for, it's nice having disposable income again.
