When I posted last night about the donate button I laughed, thinking we’d never get any donations (which I was totally fine with — I’m a poor college student myself). When I woke up with two e-mails with just over 50$ in donations I was pretty speechless. The day went on and more and more donations kept coming. Right now we’re just shy of $300 which I honestly can’t believe. It may not seem like much to someone of you but trust me, it is.

I have a hard time taking donations like this so most of the time when people messaged me saying they donated I would just tell them shut up or something because I’m not sure what to say other then “Thanks”. Keith wanted to do a little 5 minute audio thank you type thing tonight but I told him since I am getting sick (piglet flu) that I would rather not. Besides, he would of just said, “yall, lets buy up (y)all dem crawfish yall!” or something along those (cajun) lines.

No but seriously: thank you all. Shoutout to Complexity who contacted me about 4:00 p.m. today asking what the donation total was. Shortly after that, it doubled. I can’t thank you Complexity enough. That’s not to say everyone else who donated is on a lesser plane than Complexity — I cant thank any of you enough. I wish we had something to give you other then our hick-ish voices on a podcast. I won’t be posting who donated what other than Complexity . They don’t stop the giving there either. They’re running a contest at the moment and you can win a XFX ATI Radeon 4770 by simply retweeting. For the full contest you can go HERE.

The money will be used first off to improve a couple things around the site (new graphics, new layout, etc). Once it is up to snuff I’ll start looking into some alternative hosting options. I’ll keep you guys updated.

We’ll be announcing our new schedule on the Orangemarmalade show which should be up a little earlier than previously mentioned (pre October 2nd). Again, I can’t think everyone enough for the kind words and kind donations this past week. Thanks for reminding me why I started this podcast in the first place. Here’s a song to sum it all up.
