109 is the charm.
It’s been a great time. 109 entries is more than I thought I’d be able to crank out in 24 hours’ time. I used less caffeine than I expected. I repeated myself … about as often as I thought I would. I got way more support, both moral and monetary, than I ever expected.
I want to thank Dan Haseltine of Jars of Clay for seeing a need and building Blood:Water Mission as an organization to fill it. I want to thank all of Jars for supporting Dan in this endeavor. I want to thank Derek Webb again for introducing me to Blood:Water and for giving me encouragement when I first considered doing the Blogathon a couple weeks ago. I want to thank everyone who commented on entries here today, especially Roger and Kari, for helping to keep me awake and sharp.
And lastly … I thank the bank for the money. Thank God for you.
I’m OUT.
As I said I would earlier, I pledged $25 to support Geof in Blogathon 2005. Well, he posted 109 times in 24 hours , more than accomplishing the goal of 48 posts in 24 hours. Geof isn’t seeing a cent of the money pledged but will still find immense pleasure in seeing all of it go towards the Blood:Water Mission

August 7th, 2005 at 08:17I set my alarm for 4:00 this morning, but it didn’t go off! Sorry.
We still give you some groupie love.
August 7th, 2005 at 09:51Congratulations. I hope you’re enjoying that much-needed rest.
