My situation just became critical...again
Got word a few minutes ago that I have to vacate my camper trailer living situation. Apparently a neighbor complained and I have to go. Just one of those nosy, in your business kind of people I guess. Tonight is last night in trailer, then I will likely be in a friggin shelter since I have no where else to go.
Was hoping it would not come to this. Nonetheless, I have an offer to relocate to Albuquerque which is my plan. But I can't go unless I can get a moving truck. Apparently Paypal is working as I have seen a donation for $50 in my email (please see previous post "I have Paypal") That encourages me. Thank you. But I need to move a little faster. If you can donate to this, please PM me and I will tell you how to help. This is for a fellow DUer in trouble. I need to raise about $550 just for truck--not including gas for 1300 mile trip.
If you can help, please chip in. I have come to admire the many DU'ers who have helped me through this crisis as a family. The light at end of preverbal tunnel is there. I'm just struggling to get there. I also know many of you are struggling too. But any amount helps.
I will now go back to paypal since I need to check if it is officially activated.
Bless you for all you do.

Hey, Leftcoastnumbers. Let someone other than DUmmies know your pp account, perhaps you'll get more than best wishes and healing thoughts.
Well, not from me, but maybe somebody.

Yeah, what's up with leftN not posting his paypal acct so the unwashed masses can fill his tank? Perhaps in time, after he gets his shoes purloined at the local shelter. This one smells worse than desert sushi.

In his first plea for funding, Leftcoastnumbers stated that NM would cost $580.00 while Ohio would cost $1200.00 Now the cost is $550.00 for NM plus gas and a hotel and food.
So if the truck gets 15 miles per gallon of fuel, times 90 gallons of gasoline at $4.00/gallon, the fuel cost is $360.00 I'm figuring 1300 miles as per the DUmmy. Add $100.00 for 1 night at hotel and $50.00 for food and assume no other costs, (ie: no beer) the total is more like $1100.00
But wait there is more. I'm questioning the $580.00 for the truck. I checked with UHAUL, the cost for the approx 900 miles from LA to Albuquerque is $850.00 I assume that the DUmmy is in northern CA., that would account for the extra 400 miles. 1300 miles in two days is possible, I moved my brother from Chicago to Bucks County PA, half the distance (780 miles each way) in two days not including loading and unloading. The other thing is Leftcoastnumbers will need a credit card and also purchase insurance to rent the truck. So I think the cost is going to be much higher than $1300.00
Finally, Leftcoastnumbers will arrive in Albuquerque broke (actually in debt), unemployed and with no promise of a cash stream, no transportation and homeless/foodless. I see nothing but sheer entertainment on the way for us watching the situation. Whoever ends up being the guardian of Leftcoastnumbers, either some DUMB DUmmy or the state of NM, is gonna really be sorry.

Oh man! Leftcoastnumbers has just got hisself moved up in my list of DUmmies to Watch to co-lead with Amber Gone Wild in Tucson.
This is Glorious Episodes of DUmmies in US Running Dog Southwest, comrades!
BTW, does anyone know if LadyFreedumbReturns was eaten by coyotes or KnightRaven Saturday night?

Can I send a picture of my hand to his paypal account?
What could this freak possibly own that's worth hauling all the way to Albuquerque? He should pack one bag with the most important possessions and jump a one-way flight on Southwest. Perhaps it will land at the wrong airport and he can bunk with Amber.

There is s-o-o-o-o-o-o much to this tale that's untold.
He needs to go clear back to the beginning and explain why his former living situation was intolerable; just saying it was intolerable isn't enough; it indicates he's hiding something. And why would someone want to hide something, unless it reflected badly upon them?

Has he explained why he needs a truck?

Just remember to keep it clean.
No one fingered salutes.

Goodness he has a hard time getting along with people.
Who would think being a filthy,dope smoking vermin was undesirable to the neighborhood?

Even the DUmmies are starting to ask that question.

I knew about MD20/20 being tossed out for non-payment of rent, I just didn't see where he ended up in a camper.
Was it a BUddy DUmmie, or did he just plant his butt in someone elses?
I liked lastparker's idea of having him bunk with Amber. :panic:

Color me surprised.
Just goes to show that they read stuff over here and it triggers questions on their part. There's no way in the world those dimwits could ever think of these things on their own.

What, you think his potted "plants" are just going to relocate themselves to NM?

Question? Should I help out Leftcoastnumbers by sending out vibes? And if so, what exactly are vibes and how do I send them? Do I need a postal address, email or will a carrier pigeon work?

Blackie is currently locked up at the Hotel l'InsaneAsylum near Baltimore MD in the soft wall wing.

This vibes stuff combined with the precise amount of common everyday luck must be some powerful medicine....

Has anyone bothered to ask Leftcoastnumbers if he has paid his January AHA premium? And what about February? Is there any plan for the plan for February?

I have a sneak preview of Leftcoastnumbers to-do list for Feb, 2014: One entry "Beg for more stuff".
You know, if Leftcoastnumbers gets any kind of decent cash off this round, he'll be whimpering and panting like a hungry hound for more $$$.
