I miss the DU Quarterly Fundraisers.

At least then we could all rally together as DUers and we could see what we're up against with the mugshots of Boehner, Bachmann, McCain etc. as the milestones.

1. Skinner declared them obsolete...

...which he did in the best interests of us all. However, it was a bonding thing that is sorely missed, IMO.

2. Now that you mention this, I hope Grovelbot is doing OK

wherever it is these days.

3. I heard Grovelbot went on strike for new batteries so Skinner just outsourced the job

6. Damn. I would have thought the 15 grand a month I contribute to DU would have been enough.

Guess I'll have to up my game.

4. Grovelbot and the jokes around him made me smile. I think maybe you are correct. Would you post this

in ATA?

8. AFAIK they decided to rely on advertising revenue

and being able to donate at any time.

It does make the site seem more professional and not just a big club.

5. If it makes you feel any better, there's usually a FREEPATHON going on...

7. Yes, I remember when we used to make fun of JimRob's endless fundraisers...

we never did figure out what he spent all the money on!
