If anyone happens to see this, I'm trying to send my Paypal donation but get a notification that the site is not available... funny thing, I was trying to pay bills and have gotten the same thing from numerous websites...

I tried last night with no luck. Paypal was being a pain. Since then I realized that I can make my contribution in person, if that's all right. I can make up any difference or pay the tip or buy a round or two.

Yep, my friend will be bringing 5 L and 5 XL shirts. She will also be donating toward the dinner, and then taking care of the bill, and then BTCI will reimburse her. I need to get a final figure on how much we raised, and then how much on top of that we can go max, so that we don't end up...er..."overdrawn?" She is also a photographer (she's gonna love me putting that on the net) so has promised me that she will get a LOT of pictures
