As you may have noticed, I put my Amazon Gateway back up on the site the other day.
I removed it when I redesigned the site a few years ago, and just forgot to put it back up. And I shouldn’t have let it go, because it benefits Project Angel Food, which is a charity I have supported for many years, and you have supported with me.
The way it works is simple: when you go to Amazon using any of the links in my gateway, your session is credited to this site. A small percentage of anything you buy, and I mean anything, goes into a special account, and when it reaches $75, Project Angel Food gets the money.
And speaking of marital bliss, Amazon was kind enough to offer this shopping suggestion when I was putting up the new gateway:

It’s like they can read your mind.

There’s your demographic in a nutshell; Martha Stewart and anal tools.

no butts about that…

Thanks for putting the gateway back up. I’ll go back to spreading your website around to Amazon shoppers at gay pride festivals again.

Where was the link two months ago when I went mad buying stuff though Amazon…well, from now on I will use the link when I buy from Amazon.
I really don’t think you will be in need of the anal tool, not with John around…just saying.

i’m with mavis. I bought a 46-in sony bravia in march. But I did just plunk down $20 bucks on a 2-CD set of the complete prokoviev violin sonatas( SoIt was either that or ‘the happening’.

The gateway is great. Now I will feel a little less pissed about dumping a crap-load of money on textbooks for school that I will never used again ($200 for a math book…are you on CRACK?!) when I know a portion of the monies will be going toward something good.

Do you get a list of who orders what through your gateway? There are certain ‘items’ that I don’t want anyone to know about.
Q: You know what they say about a man with size 12 feet?
A: he wears a size 15 cha cha heels.

What about size 13?

I think you ought to let your online LA fans throw you a wedding shower, April. That’s a potential nightmare slash podcast right off the bat. I’d volunteer after locking down the valuables and strip searching invitees for security reasons. It’d be fun to do it with Auntie V.
10 adorisday // Apr 28, 2009 at 8:42 pm
Uh, rereading that, sorry Auntie V I didn’t mean to sound like it would be fun doing “it” with you, just fun to do.
11 Gunner13 // Apr 28, 2009 at 8:52 pm
John, don’t ask man, just don’t ask.
adorisday, I like the wedding shower idea, but I am not going to let Auntie V do ANY security work.
April, that is a REALLY interesting mix of stuff, particularly on the Amazon link you provided.
Hmm, wooden roofed Wedding Chapels, Forbidden LEGOs, Bluetooth Headsets, 400 thread count sheets and the Balls of Fury (Widescreen Edition) (2007) with Christopher Walken!
Quite the combination (not to mention the stuff at the bottom of the page (Weirdoes Who Viewed This Item Also Viewed….)
Nice to know you have an eclectic fan base, but what does that say about you?

from anal probing to pissing
this thread is JUST DISGUSTING

I apologize in advance for leaving the topic, but this is just too important.
Jews on Vinyl – LIVE! http://www.thecjm.org/index.php?option=com_ccevents&scope=prgm&task=detail&fid=22&oid=169
“San Francisco, get ready to get down to the sensational sounds of “Havana Nagila” and other lost hits off of the 1959 Irving Fields Trio album Bagels and Bongos as 93-year-old Irving Fields makes his San Francisco debut at the Contemporary Jewish Museum’s Jews on Vinyl Revue on April 30, 2009. It’s the live show you just didn’t realize you were waiting for.”

Johnny Yune (yes, THAT Johnny Yune!) will also be doing numbers from his 1975 Hebrew/Yiddish-language album “Ose Shalom.”
I thought of AW first when I saw all this.

John
size 13? you haven’t tried on women’s shoes lately. Last time I even suggested a size 14, the shoe salesman looked at me like Al Bundy looking at one of his ’size 5’s’
20 bnaivar // Apr 29, 2009 at 2:04 pm
What makes you think he was talking about shoes?

so much for the well touted behavioral targeting software that the penny stock pumpers are hyping on investment message boards!

I smell a FISH
24 pal Jacky // Apr 30, 2009 at 11:25 am
actually stretch it is probably hugh jackman’s penis. he has been everywhere lately.I’ve stated before that most australians naughty bits smell like that because they don’t wash in those areas. Only gay men are exempt. This is also true for Kiwi’s as well. Anyone remember Kiri ti kiwana singing Mahler at the hollywood bowl a few years back when she was joined by the many woodland creatures sniffing her crotch.

…they don’t wash well -DOWN UNDER
