    an update on the donations account. I hate to do it, but as i was told, maybe this will help those that might not be able to donate due to their paypal account being tied to a credit card, as well as making the auctions easier to get to the account, but im going to go ahead and upgrade the paypal account to accept credit card donations. The fee is small enough i guess, and maybe it will help get some funds that even tho there is a fee tied to it, it will still be more than we might have NOT have gotten.

    So, all of you wishing to donate using a CC, start donating!! :)

    Todd,
    If I have funds already in my paypal account will they deduct the fees?
    New around here and recovering from a get off at Jennings myself so this hits home. I've never met the guy but know good folks who do. I'd like to offer a donation in support.

    To explain my middle of racing answer from yesterday, threads get lost if they stay stuck too long so not sticking this one will get it more attention.

    What Mongo just said. With Stickys, once you get past 3 they sometimes become a jumbled mess (unless you know what you're looking for).

    There is a lot going on lately and all the auction threads, prayer threads and such are important but some are getting lost.

    Now back to the donations for Mark B thread and sorry for the thread jack.

    That's good news, since Crosley Radio offered a $500 kickstart after the endurance race, and T2 matched it :D

    Pony up, Pirelli!!!

    Come on folks, every dollar you give = $2 now...this is the time to pony up if ever there was such a time.

    Since i havent been able to get in touch with the mods here on the BBS or the great Mongo, i need to retract my post regarding Pirelli's matching donations. Seems the individual that told me this yesterday misunderstood the email that went out to all Pirelli employees. If i understood the nice lady with Pirelli HR this morning, Pirelli is matching all donations made by Pirelli employees, WHICH IS STILL OUTSTANDING!!!!. :up: :up: :up:

    Please forgive my mistake in this, ive been trying to get that one post nuked all day and havent been able to contact the BBS gods here. Pirelli is still doing an AWESOME job with all the things they are doing for Mark. Theyre really top notch company to work for and im still amazed at the things theyve done and are still doing for Mark. (The HR lady said she is going to try and see if she can get the approval to match everyone's donations, so we can still hope. ;) )

    Dont let this damper anyones willingness to donate tho, as i said earlier, there are going to be ALOT of things Mark is going to have to have done that wont be covered by insurance as well as the fact that ins. will only pay so much towards the massive med. bills he's about to encounter.

    Not that I am particularly eager to do a little "work," but I want to say for the record that I wasn't contacted. :D
