We're not talking about a major donation here, $5 a month. How much time do you spend on FR? Isn't that the best deal you've ever run across?
C'mon now, git 'er done, if some ham-n-egger like me can do this (and more) you can too. Donate!
My grandfather (b. 1884)was quite the carpenter in his day and went to SF looking for work immediately after the quake. He found quite a bit of work restoring Victorian homes of the days 1%’ers ;-)
After 6 months he got a little bored, went down to the port and signed on to a 3 masted schooner heading to Hong Kong to build bridges in Hong Kong harbor.
The captain of the ship made him the ships carpenter and “dentist” - “dentist” because he was apparently the only man onboard with a decent set of pliers.
As I recall, Sidney Amber, of San Francisco, a sometime host at Sears Restaurant, also made it to 109. Must be something in the SF air or water (or perhaps in the sourdough bread).
RIP.
