One night I was working late when the cleaning lady came into my office. As she was getting the waste basket, she bumped the desk hard and a cup of coffee spilled into my Mac laptop. The computer screamed out as if in pain.!

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
