Another week, another payment option.
Many of you asked for an alternative payment method, because you don’t like PayPal (a position I completely understand, by the way). I took a while to look at the other internet-based options, and there wasn’t a single one that I couldn’t see someone expressing a problem with. I’ve decided to go low-tech, and bypass the whole mess.
Starting today you can join the Basic Instructions Subscription Service for one year by mailing a check for $30 to the following address:

Please make the check payable to Scott Meyer, and include the e-mail address to which you want me to send the comics. Once the check has cleared, I will add you to the mailing list for one year.
Thanks, and as always, thanks for using my Amazon Affiliate links (US, UK, Canada). |

PostSecret is an ongoing community art project where people mail
in their secrets anonymously on one side of a homemade postcard.

I do not believe in censorship; however, this "secret" is socially irresponsible and detrimental to the emotional and mental well-being of rape survivors.

I had to watch the video while my husband was sleeping so he wouldn't see me cry. He's a veteran with PTSD.

Dear Frank,
Last night, I attended your PostSecret Event at the University of Oregon. Not only was I blown away by you and everything you do and the secrets that others have shared with you, but I was blown away by the community I am lucky to be a part of.
For months, I have felt so alone here. Last night, I decided to share my secret at the microphone. Right after, I received a hug from the stranger behind me. Not a pity hug, I could feel that she really meant it. After the show, I was approached again a few times and received encouraging words from people I knew and also total strangers. When I returned to my dorm room, I was Facebook messaged by an acquaintance, and emailed by a girl whom I didn't know, but recognized me from a mutual class. It was all so touching, honestly.
Here I have been, in my dorm room for months thinking I'm the loneliest girl in the world, while I'm surrounded by this wonderful community of caring people. What I'm really trying to say is, thank you, Frank, for bringing me closer to my community. And GO DUCKS!

Dear Frank,
I was one of the people that got up to share my secret recently at the Stockton PostSecret event.
I just wanted to share with you just how special it was for me.
I knew that if I could share my secret, the deepest one of all, that I would feel better. When it came time for members of the audience to share, I almost chickened out, I was shaking; I was terrified. I got the first few words out, but I was too overcome to make a single sentence.
And then a girl stood. She walked over, opened her arms, and hugged me. This total stranger, I felt, cared deeply for me. I had never seen her before, nor did I find her after you were finished. But she gave me the courage. Even now, I have goose bumps as well as a feeling of total elation.
It is things like this that give me hope for the future. If a room full of total strangers can band together and support and accept one another unconditionally, then I believe that we're moving in the right direction. PostSecret is so much more than a movement. I truly think that it is a revolution.

I've looked all over and can't find the exact information I need, so if anyone can supply it or point me in the right direction, I'd be grateful.
It's 1600, Bankside, in London. A four-man brawl has just been broken up - three of the brawlers end up at Queen's Bench, charged convicted, fined. My question is, since there was no police force, who apprehends them? Where are they held until they make bail? About how much would each man, convicted of assault and "disturbing the peace", be fined?
Thanks in advance! |
