Jim_S, a long time cruncher, is in serious need of monetary help and has started a GoFundMe page. He and his wife are both legally disabled; but only his wife collects disability checks. They have numerous medical bills, and necessity repairs to make. If you can give, please do. Also, (for those who pray), please keep Jim_S in your thoughts and prayers. Here is the link to his GoFundMe Page: Help Jim_S TL TimeLord04 Have TARDIS, will travel... Come along K-9! Join Calm Chaos |

Another thought to get this out more, (and may already be happening), is that those with Facebook could "Share" Jim's GoFundMe Page across Facebook to possibly obtain more donations... I don't have a Facebook account; or I'd do this myself. I was just thinking of how we could maximize views to Jim's GoFundMe Page. Thanks to those whom are contributing. :-) I hope our community can get the word spread and that enough donations come in to assist Jim and his wife. TL TimeLord04 Have TARDIS, will travel...

I just bumped Jim over the limit, now the page should be public, and I hope this helps him succeed. There was a time when I did not have what I needed. Now that I am OK, I feel it necessary at times to help others. Meowforjim. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Well...in my short life here I have learned a few things. One of which is that money in my hands is only numbers on a bank statement. Once I transfer a number into somebody else's hands, it becomes life. And the real things needed to support it. Jim was very kind to me years ago when I needed a shoulder. Now, it is my turn.
