Well, I didn't want to do it. But in the end, I had to. My podcasting subscription was for 250 MB a month. And although on paper, that was enough, I just kept running short. It was kind of like when your budget at home looks good on paper, but you bounce checks anyway. Well, basically, I was bouncing podcasts ... so I had to upgrade. I now have 525 MB a month to play with. That's good ... for everyone but my wallet. There shouldn't be any more delay in getting podcasts online. And I can extend the archive. In fact, by Monday, I should have all of 2005 online and begin working on uploading December 2004. I can also upload more clips and snippets than I have been. Particularly good phone calls - stuff like that. But ... back to my wallet. I've already done this upgrade thing. And I'm going to keep it on the higher level regardless. And I hate websites that charge ... I'm not going to do that. But I wouldn't be offended if you dropped me a donation here and there to help offset the costs. Last year this time, this website was hosted for free and I wasn't podcasting. In other words, I was out zero dollars. Now, I pay for my web hosting ... and I'm shelling out dineros for podcasting, too. Granted, I'm not out a ton of money, that's for sure. But I'm hoping that maybe you'll find it in your hearts - especially those of you who frequently download those podcasts - to drop me a buck or two here or there. I've created a button on my paypal account that lets you do just that. Please don't give more than a few dollars. All money collected will be used for the further development of scottleffler.com and particularly, the podcast. Thanks.

Hey Scott: Glad to see you did this. You're right, a lot of us download from the PodCasts. I really like being able to have a copy of all the dumb things our fear-lost leaders say and will continue to say, of course on our behalf (God help save us all). I for one will gladly pledge a few sheckels to keep this up and running. If nothing else, it has some damn fine comic relief features and is always good for a laugh or two...even when the subject is serious. I like the way the Forum has evolved.
SCOTT_MOCRACY NOW! That's got a ring to it.
