5-15-10 Update-
Misty has requested that we shut down the donations.

I am awestruck and I am humbled by the forum member's generosity in this endeavor. Your gifts to this lady have far exceeded anything I hoped for.
I really can't think of a better way to articulate my appraisal of your performance than using old Appalachian vernacular-
Ya done yo'selves proud!
My compliments to you all.
Godspeed.
Lee Jarrett

Take a look at this thread:
Post # 26- Misty (gunlovingirl) had 5 feet of water in her basement.
Post #72- She needs a water heater, and I am sure some other things.

http://smith-wessonforum.com/lounge/136451-floods-update-update-tues-morn.html

Misty has been a member a little over a year. She has over 3400 posts in that time. I have never seen her utter a negative word to anyone. She has been kind, concerned, helpful, friendly, considerate, and upbeat.
I think it is time to pay that back.
I have watched her acquire a few nice guns, and it has been enjoyable watching her interest and knowledge grow. I hate to see her sell her guns.
I know times are tough for most of us, but if you can spare even a few bucks, a bunch of us chipping in can help her a lot.

Now, I am NOT going to plaster Misty's name and address all over the internet.
We will work it this way- send the funds to me.

I have run this forum long enough to know how some internet mentalities and the 'gossip' chain work, so it will go like this-

To prevent ANY possibility of the thought that I am skimming the donations, we will use two methods:

You can post the amount you send in this thread if you care to,

OR,

I will post each donation by editing this first post to show the amount, check number, and zip code on each check:
(example)
1. $10 ck# 1011- 30077
2. $5 ck# 245- 40789

I am no accountant, but it is probably NOT tax deductible.

TALLY-
1. $10 - 1519 - 32168
2. 25 - 1730 - 32181
3. 50 - 1019 - 31064

I remember getting a nice welcome from her when I joined
the forum. First impressions go along way. Check in the mail in the next couple of days. I was going to donate to the red cross or other organization for this disaster, but this way,
I know exactly what my money is going for. To all others,
keep that in mind.

Taking any paypal donations?
I dont use paper checks at all.
I can send extra to cover fees.

Been thru the bad times(still), my little bit is on the way.
Pretty special to see this response..actually brought tears to my eyes.
Let's get Misty out of clean-up mode, and back to the range!

A Money Order may do the trick, at least I think it will.
