I'm trying to earn $6,000 quarterly, mostly through sponsorships of $5 per reader, plus limited ad sales. Please use the "Donate" tool in the green sidebar, upper right. Or mail cash/checks payable to: Jim Hopkins, 584 Castro St. #823, San Francisco, Calif., 94114-2594.[Photo: the Howells, summer 2008, at their island getaway]
A friend I knew in college, Lisa Birnbach, wrote in her Official Preppy Handbook (1980) that the Howells were two of her favorite people.
ReplyDelete"Oh Lovey, tell Gilligan to put this check in the mail."
ReplyDeleteMrs Howell is SMOKIN HOTTTT
ReplyDeleteJim, I'd like to have my contribution to Gannett Blog deducted from my bi-weekly paycheck. Can you make that happen?
ReplyDeleteWill that deduction also come out during the "furlough" week?
ReplyDeleteSorry, couldn't resist.
Maybe that is what the newspapers should do...charge $5. per quarter for people to access their online editions..I mean, why should I buy a newspaper when I can read it for free online?
ReplyDeleteI'll send a check.s
