I am feeling like the coolest old leftie lawyer right now
I just made a donation to DU.

I'm convinced that I'm the first to do so in this current fund drive.

Of course, I have no proof of that.

So, I'm just gonna enjoy my illusion.............................

2. I just now noticed the donation bar ...
congrats on being the first, or one of them anyway!

Time to get the card out? Or should I wait for Grovelbot?

4. Personally,
I always prefer the begging and pleading, but when I saw that big Zero, I lost it.

Chalk it up to choking ...............

If he does, then he is, indeed, an old leftie lawyer ............

17. LOL I guess he isn't then.

He'll have to wait until age 60 I guess to be dubbed a "senior leftie lawyer". He's a co-founder of Panhandle Citizens' Coalition.

13. And it'll be worth every penny, too
After the last month here, I'm thinking of donating a case of beer a piece to Skinner, Elad, and EarlG; they deserve it..

19. sorry to burst your bubble . . .
but i donated about the same time. that '0' donation thing might be a ploy to get everyone to think they are the first! . . . and it works!

20. There's always one..........
Yeah, I figured I wasn't the first to donate, but I'm the mouthiest one, obviously.

Plus, it seemed right to call attention to the campaign.

23. yes! It's a scam people!
I saw the '0' & immediately donated thinking I would be number !, I would be number !! The little sign didn't change. It still said '0' donations. I even emailed Skinner crying the blues & thinking there was a glitch. I am number 1. Okey, I'm one of 61 (which is what the sign says now) I'll never be number 1 in anything. Dang :)

best

25. Since you pointed it out
I'm joining your cat in having a beer, and you in making a contribution.

I wouldn't know what to do without DU, it's the only thing that has kept me sane lately.
If it wasn't for seeing that there are other like minded people here on DU, I would have thought I had died and gone to hell for sure.
