Well, it’s official. You guys are absolutely terrific. While the folks over at Amazon.com are complete @$$&()#$.
I mean, I spent the better part of the day talking with those people. Trying to get some sort of logical explanation as why our Amazon Honor System box was still rejecting donations. No one I spoke with there could ever give me a straight answer.
But — no matter how difficult JimHillMedia.com made it for you nice folks to donate — you still kept on donating. You just stepped around Amazon.com and went straight over to PayPal. Sending even more contributions our way.
Thanks to extremely generous people like …

… we’re still on track here to achieve all of this pledge drive’s goals. Which include buying out Michelle’s 66% of JimHillMedia.com as well as acquiring that brand new laptop.
I am still honored, humbled and totally flabbergasted by the generosity that you people continue to show me. I promise that — once we wrap up this pledge drive — I will be busting my ass to make sure that you folks get quality content every time you drop by JHM.
Speaking of which … I leave for LA in less than 10 hours. While I’m in Southern California (where I’ll be visiting my darling daughter, Alice, who turns 10 on March 18th), I’ll also be gathering all sorts of material for new stories at JimHillMedia.com.
Articles that I’m sure you’ll enjoy reading on the new, improved JHM. Which should debut in the next couple of weeks or so.
Sorry this note is so short. But I still gotta pack.
Thanks again to all of you who have given so generously over the past three days. And thanks also to those of you who will be slinging contributions this-a-way over the next two days.
I owe you guys large-scale. If you ever need a heart, a kidney, a first-born male child … I’m your guy.
Okay. That’s it for tonight. Thanks again for opening your wallets as well as your hearts. I am truly humbled by your generosity.
