You may be experiencing slow load times for the site. This is not your computer. The fact is, I'm late on the payment. Because it is late, the account has been suspended. I will not have the money until Monday.

I'm going to get a little personal. I lost my job a few months ago. It was do to the fact that the company I worked for wanted to expand, and the best way to do that was to sell to another company. So, 20 of us got let go.

That is why, I had asked for donations more than I usally do. I'm not like some site owners who blow smoke up your butt and claim to need alot of money ALL the time. The fact is, this site is expensive and I am thankful for every cent I get, and I HATE asking for money because this is my hobby.

And though I do have ads on here, it doesn't pay for the site like I wish.

So, anyway, if the site does go down, or is super slow. You know why.

Yes, everything is backed up so all they (the host) might do is turn us off, but we would not lose everything.

However, Chris does underscore a point. The site needs money to run and he (Chris) spent money while he was unemployed to help keep the site going. He did this because he’s not selfish and wanted to keep BYTB up for all of us. If you’ve ever been unemployed with a family to support then you understand the sacrifice he made.

So all you have to do is click on the Donate Button every once in awhile and send in a few bucks. I do, and so do some others. Look at it this way. So you don’t Super Size your Number Two Combo one day this week and you send in $5 to BYTB.

Every little bit helps.big grin
