[Hatchling]

[NMDemDist2]

14. check out the "donate" link. a star gets you lots of goodies like

the search function and the ability to post in the groups forums among others......

[saracat]

10. ! do ! I do! And I am broke!

How much is a star ? Can I pay you back? Neither hubby or I have a job right now so I can't donate. I gave the last of my cash to Kerry! Sigh! But thank you for what you are doing whomver you donate for. This is a very nice thing you are doing!

[wryter2000]

13. Okay

Don't tell my husband.

Abra-cadabra.

[caledesi]

26. I need one too. Am waiting for disability appeal and husband

is working a temp job making $9/hr. Lost his last job after almost 20 years. Yeah, it sucks. No health insurance and I probably have MS.

We went from middle-class to the working poor under these thugs.

Thank you for all you can do. I love DU!

[jrthin]

[RawMaterials]

12. i would like to have one, but just got married and i have about 45000

worth student loans to pay, plus my wife is still in school, so tack on another 23000. isn't life grand its going to take 20 -30 years to pay for school, and now we just have to find good paying jobs. maybee in canada

[lumberingbear]

15. How long is a Star good for???

[NMDemDist2]

18. one year

but i am donating again anyway

[WMliberal]

that's my view. even if i only make 6.50 an hour

even if i can only spare 10 bucks. DU is worth it.

[WMliberal]

He has one, but you're sweet to remember him.

[Lindsay]

30. You guys are awesome.

Unemployed for three years here, and finally got on disability a couple months ago. I would by honored by a donation in my name...but if not, I still think this place is the best, and I will contribute in the ways I can. Just not financially at the moment.

[jrthin]

41. A star is on its way. n/t

[Lindsay]

61. Thank you SO much!!!

:yourock:

[lumberingbear]

31. I already got paddy one!!!

[Francesca]

35. I just made a donation and was wrote the admins

and asked them to give him a star as well, can I ask them to give it to someone else or will they be annoyed???

[wryter2000]

39. Click on donate

In the box where it asks for your logon name, put in the other person's logon. If you were going to donate for me, you'd put in wryter2000. Then click on the button at the bottom and put in your credit card information.

The star will appear immediately for the other person, and he/she will be so happy.

:bounce:

[name not needed]

32. Kinda short on cash right now.

And my star is up either this quarter or the next one.

[wryter2000]

33. Summon Grovelbot

A few more posts, and Grovelbot will appear.

[blondeatlast]

34. You forgot Duvali (Hindu, hubby is a lapsed one)!

I have my pocketbook open as well, PM me.

It isn't much, but I love you all, and I've been on the receiving end myself, so it's time to pass it on.

[BlueHandDuo]

36. What do I have to do...

[Neoma]

38. admit that your not going to get Christmas Gifts this year?

[NYC Liberal]

[NYC Liberal]

[October]

42. I just noticed my star faded...

Thanks for the reminder....

[October]

44. Wow, do people do this a lot?

I thought I was playing a game on another thread....

There was a request for Meatloaf lyrics...and the poster (Gryffindor_Bookworm) was going to "award a star" to the first two responders.

I didn't know that was for real...but sure enough I've got my star back!

Du is such a cool place.

[bobthedrummer]

45. I do. I donated in the past, can't donate right now or 2005.

[tishaLA]

47. Me please!

School...budget...my star just expired!

[Neoma]

48. maybe hes not giving them out anymore?

:evilfrown:

[JVS]

52. RPM needs a star

[FizzFuzz]

53. I'll take Johnny Dep please.

oh, wait...

[blueblitzkrieg]

54. Poor college student here....

who charged too much money on his credit card giving to the Kerry campaign. Would like a star if anyone is game! :smoke:

[leftyandproud]

55. I need a hookup..

It just disappeared a few days ago...I feel so naked without it.

[Neoma]

56. Thank you for the star!

heres some pretty flowers

[Jack Schitt]

57. A star for what?

On Hollywood's Walk of Fame?

Sure, I'd like one. :)

[Blue in a Red State]

58. Pinching pennies...

...so tight that they're screaming. Funding for my job ran out right before the election. Not a good year and the clincher was that both my beloved cats died in July and we're still recovering from the cremation costs.:-( I could really use a kind patron.

[ralps]

59. I'm willing to donate for someone.

So if anyone needs one let me know
:hi:

[pres2032]

63. i need a star!

I'd love to donate, but being a poor college kid, i can't afford to spend any more than really the bare nessecities..

I promise to devote a poll or a really great post to anyone who donates in my name!!
Thanks!

[OneBlueSky]

64. if you're offering, I could sure use one . . .

mine expired recently, and being on disability means that every dollar counts . . . if the offer still stands, I'd be most grateful . . . thanks . . . :)

[Dora]

65. Dora needs a star.

We're pinching pennies but I love being a DU member. It would be lovely if I had a star.

I would give you my fail-safe pie crust recipe as a token of my appreciation. And with the holidays coming, it's pie season, and this recipe could come in handy.

[Barney Rocks]

66. I need a star,

I am broke--I have been pillar to post since July 1 when I lost my job--I have only had a few temporary jobs since then, I have looked constantly, but still not permanently employed.

I took advantage of being unemployed to give lots of time and energy to the Kerry campaign--and also I gave every bit of money that I could afford.

Even though I love this site, I just can't spend even $5 until I find work--and who knows when that will happen. But, right now, I am so depressed and disheartened about everything in general that finding a job is just one more thing to feel bad about.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

67. I'm lacking a star.

:)

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

70. Thanks

:)

[Huckebein the Raven]

68. I would like a star.

[motely36]

69. Hopefully later in the week I can hook someone up
