#1 I gave up on Pay Pal so long ago I can't remeber why. Amazon works fine, but only seem to be able to donate $10.00.

What if I only wanted to give $9.99?

#2 $9.99 will buy you a Time magazine subscription.

$10.00 - or a Paypal donation of your choice - helps keep Rantburg online.

Hmmm ... Time/MSM or Rantburg??? Tough choice.

Of course Rantburg causes the netnuts to gnash their teeth, thereby increasing demand for dental services and hence stimulating the economy. A win-win!!

#4 Amazon's set up for a suggested amount. I have no idea why. I set it at $10 because it's the price of a fairly cheap lunch. Nothing to stop anyone from hitting it 11 or 12 times...

#5 I hit it and then I hit it again. Both times it took me to some kind of a Bizzaro Rantburg. Oh well. It's still a better deal than the local rag.

#6 That's OK, Fred, but the last time I chose my own destiny, so to speak, and it was more than $9.99.

I'll be back.

#7 Done, but each time an another commenter makes a demeaning remark about me, I want 10 cents back (5 if it's only about the overall quality of my attempts at being droll). I have a screen cap, you won't get away from that.

#8 Done via Paypal. All my insults are directed at anonymous5088 so Fred gets to keep every dime.

#12 You feel no tingle from my modest jingle but there tis anyway.
Thank you Fred.

My hopes for thee are not yet dead.
Thy freedom's sun may for a while be set,
- But not for ever, God does not forget.

#13 So sorry, Fred - meant to send a check this last pay period but got distracted by a phone call and forgot. Will put it in the mail tomorrow morning.

Wish it could be more, but my hours are way back from last year (but at least I've got a job ~~so far~~).
