Over the top cool! I would buy one of those in a NY minute.
Good stuff!

Contribution coming from my off-shore account ! By the way, what does the phrase "a New York minute" mean ? And how is it different from any other minute ?

As I understand it, everything in NY is "faster and more intense!"
At least, that is what I have heard.

As others had posted, the amount of money I have saved from the use of this forum has been great, but the knowledge and confidence I have gained you can not place an amount on.
I too have sent a PayPal contribution to a great site.
Thanks to all the staff and members for keeping this site the best!

To the early poster re: Westboro Church. You're exactly right about how they finance themselves. I live an hour away from those dregs of humanity. In the past 25 years I've tangled with Margie Phelps on two occasions. Once in '86 and once in '05. It was all I could do to keep from going over the police line and wrapping my hands around her throat. I worked for a collection agency while I was going to college in the 80s. I had to call her on a bad credit card debt. At the time I didn't know who they were. When my supervisor heard who I was talking to he ran across the room and hung up my phone. Then he explained to me how they were lawsuit-happy and that they would figure out a way to sue my company if I called them again etc. He told me to just dump the account. The other time was when my little sister graduated KU law school. They were there picketing that event, saying horrible things to people as they walked by, including me. The Phelps clan are an embarrassment to our state and we've done our part to try and get rid of them to no avail. They feed on hatred and negativity and live off of suing people. I do know this; when Fred-baby finally dies he better be buried in an undisclosed location. There will be quite a crowd there to "pay their respects"....
Sorry I got off-topic... just venting.

Donation sent. LOVE this forum!
How about a donation permalink somewhere on the site, like a little banner at the top? I wouldn't be offended. Other p-car sites have them, why shouldn't we?

Great idea gschotland!
Maybe we should just do a sticky with a title like - "help the forum when it helps you"

The forum Paypal address is: [email]986forum1@comcast.net[/email]
Bump - Payment sent - included Paypal address in the title because it took me awhile to find it in the thread. Hopefully that helps others.
Thanks again for a great site!
