Day #18 – 13 days left and still only 6% of our goal reached. Yesterday was a pretty popular day on the website. A lot of you were responding to a post I put up last week featuring a sweep of Top-40 radio in Los Angeles on October 15, 1965.
Day #17 – 14 days left and only 6% of our goal reached. Two weeks for miracles to happen – well, they’ve happened before – most people like cliff-hanger endings; the final dash to the finish line, victory plucked from the jaws of defeat – that sort of thing.
Day #16 – 16 days, 16 backers, 6% and a little over $600 – that’s a lot of 6’s. Someone out there who knows a thing or two about numerology can probably read all kinds of messages into that. But I see it as hopeful for the moment – even
Day #15 – We’re at the mid point, and still a long way to go before getting anywhere near our goal for this Fundraiser. Another week has gone quickly by and another weekend is rapidly approaching. Don’t know about you, but time is speeding up. I thought as you
Day #14 – Approaching the half-way point, but we’re still at 5%. Over the past 24 hours pledges have come trickling in – and that’s great. If we could keep the trickle going maybe, just maybe, it will turn into a flood. I’ve gotten a lot of e-mails from

Day #10 – A third of the way through and 5% funded – no pledges yesterday. It gets worrisome, because you start to think no one actually likes to know about things, listen to historic newscasts or music, or really see the relevance of what happened in 1958 compared to
Day #9 – The Weekend – 5% funded and slowly inching along. I am grateful for the support so far – you give me faith and hope that Past Daily is doing the right thing and to keep going – every day. These are busy, crazy times for most people
Day # 8 – End of the week, 4% funded and moving quietly along. A huge thanks and debt of gratitude to the ones chipping in so far. You’re making an enormous difference and I feel like we’re heading in the right direction. Sometimes you just don’t know. Much
