Hi. My name’s Greg. A week ago Wednesday my daughter came out of her room and told my wife and me it was raining in there. I walked in and saw water dripping from a ceiling hook. It was 5:15 am and raining outside.
I grabbed a flashlight and the ladder and went up into the attic to track down the leak. I squeezed between tight joists and low roof beams and found the leak, saw the slow drip-drip. I got back out, took the ladder outside into the rain and went on the roof. I found a set of shingles that had slipped down, saw the exposed tar paper. I slid the shingles back into place and covered the spot with a tarp. We called the roofing guys and the foreman kindly informed us we need a new roof.
Happy Holidays, right?
Anyway, I tell you all this to say I understand. Money’s tight. It’s nearly Christmas, you have parties to go to, people to buy for. You have movies to watch. Still, here are two talented gentlemen creating a show from nothing. And it’s pretty good. The pilot is better than half the stuff on television right now. Stuff you’ve probably watched and then secretly hated yourself for later.
It would help them out if you could spare three dollars. Or five. Seriously. Skip the vidi venti vici one morning and put your money to better use. Actually, if you skip only one venti, give that money to the Salvation Army or United Way or something. But if you decide to skip two coffees, I’d recommend Put This On as a good place to sock your money. If they succeed, you can look back and say, “I helped them do that. I was a part of something.”
I did, and it’s a cool feeling.
