It's a joke.  A funny.  Why should having no shame generate respect?

Shmokes,

    Well I really appreciate your responses to my questions.  While I agree with a few of your points and not some others, you are correct this forum is not the place for a political discussion.  You have proven to me anyway that you deserve some help and are a thoughtful individual looking to better himself.  Please refresh me on where I can make a donation.  Also dude, your wife is super hot in that nurse outfit.  I think we can agree on that.  Thanks again for the response.

Hey . . . thank you.  Click here for my MySpace page.  Can't miss the donate link on the right side.

edit: fixed link.  By the way, the girl in the background of my page is my wife.  She's a graphic designer.  It's a self-portrait/play on an Andy Warhol painting of Marilyn Monroe.  She's got beauty and talent!  I'm a lucky man.

Well, we've all seen bogus promises before. I think the only way to be sure this is a genuine offer is to have a neutral third party preview the pictures to be sure the offer is genuine.

I volunteer.

Okay, Bones.  FWIW, my wife says that if donations reach $1000 every donor who is interested can have cheesecake pictures that would be sent to post hell in the EE forum.  Except Fredster.

Current total is $195

That's not an insult.   ???

Who is married to a woman that looks like a $1000 stripper?  Certainly none of us.

...of course it's not an insult. BUT, when his lady reads that post, she will turn to him and say "You think I'm a $1000 dollar stripper, don't you baby?".

$200

Surely $200 should give these complete strangers at least a tit shot.  I think your missus should pony up and produce the goods for these lost souls.

And you've inspired me schmokes.  Whenever I give money to beggars on the streets of Sydney, I'm gonna ask them to whip out their schlongs just so I can make them feel a little bit more worthless than they already do.

I imagine this is how your wife will be feeling soon enough if you decide to go along with this selfish endeavour.

I just wanted to thank everyone who donated.  I'll be on a plane to France this time tomorrow.  I'd also like to send out an honorable mention to those who got incredibly nasty in this thread, as I'm sure it likely encouraged some people who might have been on the fence otherwise to go ahead and donate.

At any rate, my donations link drew in a bit over $300 which, while being only a very small portion of the entire cost of the trip, is still a great deal of money that I don't deserve, but have nonetheless simply because I have a lot of great friends.  Many of those friends are on this message board, so, thanks again!  I really doubted that my request for donations would pull in more than $30 or $50.  It obviously far exceeded my expectations which is really exciting.  It covered my Metro/bus passes for Paris and Nice, as well as the cost of my flights between those cities.  That's pretty damned cool.

So, again, thanks.  Y'all are bloody great!

I just wanted to thank everyone who donated.  I'll be on a plane to France this time tomorrow. 

I'd like to thank them too.  For once, justice is served!   :laugh2:


Seriously, good luck with the study abroad.  It's not easy going to a foreign country and I suspect you'll actually try to acclimate yourself rather than the usual visitor expecting everyone to accomodate them instead.
