Title: this year's marathon premium
Post by: Sarah on February 14, 2008, 03:17:32 PM: Once again, I'd like to help out those FOT who truly can't afford the $75 to get Tom's marathon premium. I'll be mousing it again, and I'll have a few premiums to spare. Just PM me with your details, and I'll put you on the list. Only the honestly needy should apply, of course. FOT's honor.

my wife usually gives me shit about my $125 donation, but this year she noticed the naming rights and told me "I think we could kick it up to $150 this year"

Oh, I wanted that so bad. I would pay $1/day just to listen to WFMU, and then they throw in a crate of awesome.
Thank you WFMU!

Post by: Laurie on February 14, 2008, 10:32:29 PM: I'm currently unemployed, guys, so don't expect me to match last year's donation. I'm sticking with a mouse pledge, and I'm doing the monthly installment plan. And I'm keeping the swag for myself.

Post by: masterofsparks on February 15, 2008, 06:25:58 AM: Mouse pledges also get a sweet zip hoodie. It's a bad time for me financially, but I'm going to do everything I can to at least get Tom's premium.

Post by: Sarah on February 15, 2008, 07:35:37 AM: Just so you know, two of the four fun packs have been claimed by needy FOT. It's a "first come, first served" offer, so you should probably let me know quickly if you want one.

I'm really happy about the FMU zipped hoodie; I've been needing a new light outer garment, and I prefer a zipped garment to a pullover. It is a little weird always to be acting as a walking billboard for the station, but there are worse roles in life.

You're a big fat liar, woman. Luckily for WFMU. (Tom just announced your total.)
