    CONTRIBUTE TO DAGBLOG FOR CHRISSAKES!

    By Richard Day on Thu, 06/19/2014 - 5:15pm |

    Mike has asked us to contribute to his blog site.

    I don't have any money; but $1200 a month with rent at 364 leaves me with more money than I have seen (started in 2012) for a long time.

    But hell, Slate wants some more money so I can delve into their secret stash and NYT hits me for $34 every month (actually 28 days so they can rip me off more) and those sons of bitches want more for their special coverage ….

    So I send him a piddly $25 because, for some reason my charts cannot tell me, I have an extra fifty bucks every month that goes into savings.

    And this is a one time 'charge'.

    This is the only place I got.

    I have some readers.

    Over six years I never made a dime (except for two computers) and Marshall just destroyed me and yet I have some readers here.

    Now those on the dole (like I used to be) do not send anything.

    But we have Cleveland and Mike M and Ramona and Mike W, of course.

    On the other side of things like me, we have Eric Waltree and several other great writers (I am not a great writer, hahahah)

    Hit Mike W's post and send him ten bucks or twenty bucks or whatever.

    I have been assured that this Pakistani is not now nor ever has been a member of Al Qaida or the Taliban! Hahaha

    I wish for an advertisement here.

    I mean Mike W's problem is that more and more peeps are writing here and commenting here and he needs more room.

    MIKE, GO AHEAD AND GET A FEW ADS. PUT THEM ON THE RIGHT SIDE. I MEAN YOU ADVERTISE OTHER BLOGS, A FEW GILLETE COMMERCIALS OR GREEN TEA COMMERCIALS AINT GONNA HURT ANYONE

    HAHAHAHAHAH

    GO TO MIKE'S BLOG.

    THIS IS THE ONLY PLACE I GOT

    Oh and as Momo puts it:

    Momo you got kids and stuff.

    But I suppose ten bucks aint that bad even considering your financial mess.

    But damn, we depend on you here at Dagblog and your site is stupendous!

    I am always fascinated by your recipes but your quilts defy physics. hahahah

    I have kind of neglected my site these last couple of weeks.  We have been passing around a summer cold here.  Of coarse I am the last one to get it.  Murphy's Law or something about Mom's being the last. Well I am going to have to make some quilt blocks for Sunday's Kos installment. That quilt group is donating 64 quilts to the VA Hospital in Detroit for the NN14 being held in Detroit this year. I can't donate so my job is to keep these lovely ladies entertained twice a month and increase their skills. They have also made knitted scarves and caps for them, last count was over 100.  I just sort of fell into that group.

    You are the one who talked me into the food blog. LOL.  It is your fault...LOL The kids thank you because they are getting extra treats. I bought a sausage stuffer attachment to my mixer grinder to make sausage links. ($12) The hog casings came today. Not very glamorous but I have been saving a dollar a pound on sausage making it my self. I am graduating to breakfast links.  

    Life is good Richard,  my bills get paid each month. The kids are getting educated. The oldest ones haven't borrowed a dime for their college education. We are healthy and most of the time happy. I can spare a dime or two.

    What's your blog, Momoe? I'll add it to our blogroll.

    PS I refuse to accept any money earmarked for sausages or college degrees. I'm sure you can spend it better on you kids, and you've done more than your share of debugging on the new site.

    My blog is:

    http://trkingmomoe.wordpress.com/

    It is just food recipes and quilting with lots of history on the subjects. I do my political complaining at Kos and here.  


    by trkingmomoe on Fri, 06/20/2014 - 8:36pm

    GOOD FOR YOU! HA

    Sell it!

    Thank you for stepping up.

    By the by, I get Momo's email and it is fun!


    by Richard Day on Fri, 06/20/2014 - 8:45pm

    Get yourself over to the new site.  I am pestering Mike on how to post photographs that we take ourselves.  I am not alone on this small problem of being clueless with pictures. I need back up on this. Please?

    Help me break it.

    Oh dickday, it's so nice to read your voice again! Dagblog and Michael absolutely deserve our support, but please keep this in mind: no website will ever have the power to silence you. Richard Day will be heard. Love ya! Missy

    Oh Missy, I missya. hahahah

    You must read me, I mean how the hell did you find this?

    I hope you are doing well.

    You helped me when I literally had nothing.

    Real nice to hear from you.

    You know, there is no penalty for you jumping into the creative corner or something once in awhile!

    Check out Mr. Smith sometime.

    He is really, really good.


    by Richard Day on Thu, 06/19/2014 - 11:17pm

    Done. 

     

    P.S. Thanks for the plug, DD.  ;-)

    P.P.S.  Thanks for creating and maintaining such a nice forum, Michael W.


    by MrSmith1 on Fri, 06/20/2014 - 3:45pm

    Thank you, Dick. I'm very touched by this.


    by Michael Wolraich on Thu, 06/19/2014 - 11:58pm

    Oh Mike you have been so kind to me over the years.

    Damn. I attempted to tell Eric Wattree the same damn thing. hahhahaha

    It is really nice to find a nice man, once in a while. 

    hahahhhaha

    Keep on keepin on!

    That's all I got.

    You are a good man


    by Richard Day on Fri, 06/20/2014 - 12:56am

    Now, I'm even more touched and a bit embarrassed. But dagblog is full of good men and women, and we all love you, DD.


    by Michael Wolraich on Fri, 06/20/2014 - 1:56pm

    Richard,

    You flatter me greatly, Richard - and why wouldn’t a person be appreciative of you, you’re a great and insightful guy. If everybody I knew was like you, I’d speak to people more.


    by Wattree on Fri, 06/20/2014 - 7:39pm

    DD, if you got mad and left this site I would pay just to have you come back, so it only makes sense to put some $$ in the pot anyhow!!!!


    by CVille Dem on Mon, 06/23/2014 - 7:28am

    My pc crashed. damn

    And I thought I would need to clean out my savings; but I took out the battery and five days later, my pc works!

    So I am happy, I am always happy to read Cville and I am happy to be at Dagblog.

    Sorry for the delay!


    by Richard Day on Tue, 06/24/2014 - 4:32pm

    I sincerely love you, Richard Day.

    That is all.

    Hahahahaha.

    I mean it.


    by Ramona on Mon, 06/23/2014 - 10:24pm

    Ramona, it is so nice to hear from you.

    As I told Cville, I have had some tech probs.

    Anyway, I was so happy to log back on an hour ago and I always, always read Ramona!
