OK we all love Rose and we want her to be happy and she'd never ask ...so I'm doing it for her. Those of you who would like to( please PM Rose for paypal instructions) contribute to the send Rose to Australia fund now's your chance. Her birthday is coming and I thought it'd be shiny for us to all get together and send her to her happy place as a present. I know we're all tapped out from D*C so this has a long time frame. I'm just setting it up now. I am making gift baskets with shiny things this week and next as rewards for contributers to the fund!! Thanks folks "I'm not all that interested in the mental health of people who want to kill me. "- Leroy Jethro Gibbs

What can I say? I'm a hopeless romantic at heart. Come Friday (payday) I'm all over this! PR needs this big piece of awsomeness in her life, and I can't think of a better crew to make it happen for her. Likely to completely overshadow her excitedness of D*C, and we can all see how excited she's been about all that hullabaloo. She just better not be all humble-like and not accept the wonderful gift she's about to receive.

Okay, I won't be humble, but I will be reasonable; I really don't expect this by my birthday. Browncoats are definitely the shiniest people in the 'verse, but it would take a miracle to raise... I think it would be three grand, minimum, cuz it's two grand just to get there... in three months. Really, it's so incredible that you guys want to do this for me and Nic, and I wouldn't only be humble but stupid to say no, but I won't expect it by December at all. And yes, I have a paypal account that I set up for the Magda Laptop Project, so that's very much still up and running, and easy to work. I promise I won't be humble/stupid and just not tell people what to do... *does the happy squirmy puppy dance of joy* Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

Quote: Originally posted by Hell's Kitten: So, is there a donation goal... like, ticket price, or something? Or...? Hallo sweet Kitten The goal is, I think, about three grand. Tickets booked six months in advance are about $2,100 and then there's hotel and food and that kind of thing after that. Not to mention I have to get a passport. Tickets booked less than a month in advance are $3,500 so that's not happening because it's just... too much extra. I'm looking into travel as a courier to try to save some on the fare, but I don't know if that will work.
