Help Out a Friend in Need

As you probably know, this site doesn't have a tip jar. I don't have a philosophical problem with tip jars, I've just never bothered to put one up. I figure I'd be depressed by how little action it got.

But if you're inclined to throw a few quarters my way, please think about lending a hand to the man who made this site possible. Dean Esmay posted the first entry ever published on this site, and was the subject of the first entry I ever published. Without Dean, this blog would be a very different place. He didn't have to help me. He didn't know me from Adam.

He just thought that bloggers stuck on Blogspot would be a lot better off moving to Movable Type. So he singlehandedly moved a bunch of us over. Just to help out.

Well now Dean is facing some pretty serious troubles. If you enjoy reading the Speculist, please think about helping out the guy who made it possible.

Thanks.
