Got this crazy idea. Does anybody know where one can get a badge like this made?  I assume anybody with marginal metalworking skills and a letter stamp could do it.. but that person would not be me.

First, the good news. I got a really lucrative contract that’s going to probably take care of my expenses for at least the next six months once I complete it.

The bad news: I needed money like two weeks ago.

So, in short, I’m short. I have the rent paid, but that’s about it. I need about $1,000 to keep lights on and other misc. expenses until I’m able to bill for the first milestone on my next project.

If you can help me out, I can pay you back. I’m hoping that a few friends step forward rather than having to mine one person’s pocket. I can pay you back within 30-45 days.

I also need some help from people who are capable of lifting heavy things this weekend. I have some bulky things in my storage unit near Hollywood that I want to move into the cheaper unit down here in Clackamas County. Please contact me directly on this one.

Lastly, if anybody has any boxes, let me know, I might need a few.

And it works on a lot of things, including (most likely) your WordPress installations. This was posted using a hijacked session, for example.

That does it, I’m using the damn VPN from now on.

Just letting everybody know that I’m okay, and sorry I’ve been very scarce lately. I’ve been spending a lot of the past couple of weeks packing up the old house and getting it ready for the new owners. There’s a couple more days of this, and then I’ll be back to my normal routines…

I’m starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel, financially.  Due to the good graces of a lot of my friends, I’ve managed to get enough money to get myself a decent apartment and keep the lights on while I wait for escrow to close on the house.

However, a few of the straggling little bills I have aren’t getting paid.  An example of that is my webhosting bill, which has been sitting unpaid for a couple of months now.

I would appreciate any donations you can provide to keep the webhosting running.  In addition to being where one can find my resume, it is also where I get E-mail and where my phone system is presently hosted.  Any amount will do.

You can make a donation using Dreamhosts’ system by clicking the image below.  Note that I never see your credit card number or anything.. this is all handled automatically through the webhosting system’s secure payment system.

Alternatively, I get a pretty generous reward when people sign up to Dreamhost and use me as a referral.  If you enter the promo code “FEEDLE9” when you sign up, you’ll get a free domain registration!  Or, if you don’t want a free domain registration, just simply enter feedle@gmail.com as your referrer and I’ll still get the credit.

Thanks for tolerating a little spam.
