Yes, it’s hard to believe, isn’t it? Time passes so quickly when we’re enjoying ourselves.
But yes, it’s been a while since I asked you to donate to a semi-worthy cause: this blog. And so I’m going to ask you again to use the “donate” button on the right sidebar beside the photo of the hat, and give whatever you see fit.
Every single donation— large or small—adds up, and helps me a great deal in continuing the blog. If each reader gave even a few dollars, it would be a glorious thing. But whether you decide to donate or not, please keep visiting and keep commenting. Comments are a very big part of what makes this blog work.

With thanks, Neo. Thanks for making us think and for bringing together people whose comments I enjoy reading — even when they’re dead wrong!

Neo…. It would be beneficial to know how much you spend each year to keep this blog operating?

John Dough: it’s not money spent so much as time spent.
