Do you want my little grandson (and his mom) not be happy with pledges--he is still smiling---you don't know him. This could change in a second. I will bet that if you pledge to the show he will be happy to see old Grandpa supported and help keep him in this good mood.
Certainly you will notice fewer pieces than usual. It is one of the only fundraising efforts we do each year and it requires me to ask for your support. In all honesty---and it is truly a fact---financial support is the only rating the station has to see what programs stay on the air. The bills have to be paid and the University is not the funder of this station----YOU ARE.
So---my bumper sticker slogan---Keep Yiddishkeit On The Air.
It is up to you. WFDU is the only station in this major area doing a program that was once all over the radio dial. I am honored to be the keeper of the flame---or even the latkes.
Please e-mail me ( sundaysimcha@yahoo.com ) or go online to www.wfdu.fm and pledge on line---best of all---love to hear from you. Call me next Sunday --201-692-2012.
On a positive note---My sincere thanks to our pledgers this week. You were great. We have web listeners and one would think that they would pledge. One I know of---in Colorado--surely gives me suggestions and requests. That is about it for him. Counts his shekels and skis (?) and listens.
The bills still have to be paid so he can hear this material---so--do not be a Schnorer like him---
By the way---an aside---I bet you don't get these comments on the other shows---Gospel, Celtic, C/W, etc;---what do they know from "schnorers". SO--Bumper Sticker Time---Keep Yiddishkeit alive and well on WFDU.
