Those who have followed the fundraising campaign via Twitter since yesterday have seen the evolution of “Manny McPhee”, the alter ego I have adopted on Twitter, to signal the progression of donations.
I started with a frowning face and two warts:
When I woke up this morning, there were so many donations, I couldn't help but be happier... still, that only got rid of the first (smaller) wart by noon: After more donations came in during the afternoon today, Manny McPhee lost part of the large wart remaining: Finally, at 11:15 pm PST, the warts were all gone and only the frowning face was left: Will the face be smiling again tomorrow? I am sure that will be the case...
