SDOAR 2023 GoFundMe Update #29: Who Knew Dr. Joyce Brothers Was So Popular

 "You had me at 'Finnegan's Wake'" - Shawn O'Brien, GoFundMe Donor

 Well, remind me to drop more Joycean gems in the future!

Alas, another abbreviated update this week (life is a bit chaotic for another month, so get used to it), what with my visit to traffic court this morning. Manly was full of sympathy, sending this to me whilst I waited nervously at Manhattan South Traffic Court:

 YOUR HONOR! YOUR HONOR! I'D LIKE TO ADDRESS THE COURT!

SHE'S GUILTY! GUILTY I TELLS YA! JUST LOOK AT HER! ANYBODY CAN SEE BY THE LOOK IN HER EYES THAT SHE'S A STONE COLD SCOFFLAW!

SHE DID IT! SHE DID IT! THERE'S NO DENYING IT! SHE DID IT... ON PURPOSE!

JUST LOOK AT HER FACEBOOK! SHE POSTED HER CANNONBALL RUN ON THERE!

I TELLS YA SHE'S A MENACE TO SOCIETY! THROW THE BOOK AT 'ER! 

HERE THROW THIS BOOK AT HER TOO (Memoirs of a Geisha? Where the fuck did that come from?!?)! ANYBODY ELSE GOT A BOOK ON 'EM WE CAN THROW?

OF COURSE SHE'S GUILTY! LOOK OUT FRONT! SHE'S DOUBLE PARKED IN FRONT OF THE COURTHOUSE! SHE SPED THE WHOLE WAY HERE! IT WAS LIKE THE BIG CHASE AT THE END OF THE BLUES BROTHERS! SHE CAUSED A TWENTY-SIX CAR PILE UP ON THE BRIDGE! THE NYPD IS GONNA GO BROKE REPLACING ALL THOSE SQUAD CARS!

LOCK HER UP! LOCK HER UP! (Come on everybody, we can't get Mob Justice if you don't form a mob...)

Thankfully, the police officer who pulled me over failed to show up, so all charges were dropped. For the record, I am sorry about all those squad cars that still need replacing!

<ahem> Let's see how the GoFundMe is faring this week!

Just the Facts, Ma'am, aka GFM Tote Board

  • *ONE* new page unlocked since last week
  • $7,420.00 raised from 125 donations (plus $62.08 outside of GoFundMe).
  • 41 new pages released as mocked up by Dave Sim from Jun. 11 to Sep. 25, 2021
  • 62 total pages available on Dropbox, including Dave's 2019 mocked-up pages
  • Only $185.00 away from unlocking page 63
  • If you have not donated >> $5+ donation grants access to all 62 pages and all pages moving forward! 
  • If you have donated (thanks!!) >> GoFundMe does not have an option for monthly subscriptions. So if you want to donate on a monthly basis, please do so as we are over midway through month #7.
  • GoFundMe is a dreadful communication platform -- if you haven't heard back from me, gotten access to the new pages, etc., please email me at jen@typingmonkeys.com

Awkward homophonic seque to...

Just the FAQs, Ma'am

Arthur Graham asks, "Hi Jen! Can you continue sharing more donor rewards?"

To which Jen responds with, "Of course! And thank you so much for asking yet another timely question that wasn't made up all deus ex machina like. Let's check out the cool stuff Ryan H. got for unlocking pages 314 and 315!"

Want to get your own cool stuff? Simply donate enough to unlock the next page (every $200) and we'll get Dave to take care of you! Just remember to confirm if you want it signed, personalized, any recommended personalization, and Fanny's your aunt! 

If you want something super special, like the AMOCnutz/Emos that Manly and I have been playing with, please reach out to me at jen@typingmonkeys.com and we'll see what sort of donation Dave might have in mind.

No fax from Dave this week, that that's all she wrote for the homophones, but I do have other news!

Jen's Non-Stressful Giant-Sized Ashcan(s) Update
 
Slow and steady wins the race! If I can clear a few more hours this week, we should be able to get new files over to Alfonso for SDOAR Restored #0 (huzzah!) and SDOAR Restored and Remastered #1, take two (huzzah! huzzah!). SDOAR Remastered #0 is proving to be an enormous amount of work, but I think once it comes out, it will be worth the wait. Philip R. Frey is doing an amazing job on it, all in his uncompensated spare time. So big ups to Philip, even if I'm the only one who can see how amazing it looks.

Who knows, maybe I'll pull a Manly and start posting pages whilst I play catch up in life!
