File this one under "You've got to be fucking kidding me"

Jeff Goldstein is holding a fund drive for his blogging habit. I guess the paycheck he receives from Pajamas Media just ain't fat enough for Jeff's standards.

What a greedy fuckwad. And, unlike other bloggers from the left and right who have asked their readers for money after losing their jobs and falling upon hard times, it's not like Goldstein is starving. Here's his excuse for the fund drive:
Although to be honest, this second fundraiser (the last was Jan ‘05, when my laptop melted) is less about raising vacation money than it is about paying for another year of hosting / DSL (I’m on a dedicated server, which can get kinda pricey)—and maybe clearing off a few remaining debts so that I can help move the protein wisdom wife and son into a more suitable abode, hopefully by year’s end. We’re looking to move out of Denver proper and settle more toward the mountains, both to save my wife an assload of commuting time, and to provide Satchel with more open area to master his “My First Crossbow / Throwing Stars” kit—a birthday present generously sent him from Dick Cheney and the gang at the VRWC.

He needs a fund drive to pay for a year of hosting? Give me a fucking break. Web hosting costs for most of us normal people is $8-10 a month. If somebody's costs are more than that, and to the point where they need a dedicated server to run their website, this is because they are popular and receiving a higher amount of traffic than others. Having that much traffic means you can charge more for advertisments on your website to pay for your hosting costs. If you're getting a lot of traffic but can't recoup the costs through advertising, then hop on over to Blogger and get your site hosted for free.

As for wishing to pay off debts and become a mountain man: get a job, asshole.

But there is one good thing to come out of this situation. The next time Goldstein trumpets any Republican talking points about the economy, we can ask him why he's begging his readers for money to pay off his debts. Perhaps Jeff is having trouble affording gas?

  11. Keto Fit Pro Among the reasons for the failure to make peace with the balance are radical diets and the difficulty in making permanent changes in eating habits. And it was just thinking about these people who cannot lose weight and maintain the new weight that Dr. Pierre Dukan, the French physician who authored the world famous diet that has lost weight to the future Queen of England, created the new Dukan Diet.
