...would like to sponsor Yoschie?
http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/5875630/an/chillout/page/0
As you can see, he's in some serious federal shit and needs our help to get a decent lawyer so he doesn't have to spend his life rotting away in a cell for doing nothing. (read the thread)
I was thinking it would be cool to see some sponsors to offer to donate a percentage of proceeds to the legal fund for a certain length of time, or offer a special deal that will support Yoschie's legal fund, something like that..
If that's something you'd want to do, I would applaud it. I bet it would not only help his legal fund but you'll make extra sales at the same time! What do you guys think?

I think this is one of the most excellent ideas ever!
The yoschie deal, yoschies two fave strains for 25 bucks, 10 dollars from each sale goes to yoschies lawyer fund.
god, that would rule, any vendor that did that would earn my business for life.
And if all the vendors did that, I'll donate 100 dollars of my own money, despite the fact that I'm going through a 4000 dollar collections process.

That's both hillarious and so sad at the same time. If all goes well and yoschie comes home in part because of something like that, then it will have been hillarious. 
And that sponsor will be in tight as fuck with the community too.

I think that would be great, except I doubt most vendors would do it. Supporting an accused criminal (I know the story and I am not saying he did anything wrong) usually isn't good for business. Especially in the borderline stuff we do.

We will. We have sent $15 to missargyle and are putting forth the following fundraiser.
For everyone that orders and puts *YOSCHIE* in Note section of the payment, we will donate 5% of that sale to missargyle@gmail.com 's paypal account, for Yoschie. We will keep track and post how much has been raised.
We are a COMMUNITY. "Together We Stand, Divided We Fall". Cheesy, but true.
P.S. AliceDee, We COMPLETELY agree. We're astonished ourselves.
