Brian “primesuspect” Ambrozy, co-owner of short-media.com, is jailed for “good”

Brian Ambrozy 29 Aug, 2005 at 1:48pm ET Article published in Tech

Brian “primesuspect” Ambrozy, one of the owners of illustrious tech site www.short-media.com, has been locked up for “good” by the Muscular Dystrophy Association (the MDA).

He is appealing to the viewers and members of this community to help bail him out. He promises that he can’t stand being locked up any longer than necessary, as he has to get back to posting various tidbits and playing Paper Mario and other important tasks.

You can help bail him out by contributing to the MDA, which can help with things like research, leg braces, wheelchairs, and MDA summercamp for children who are afflicted with muscular dystrophy.

You can help post bail online at http://www.mdalockup.org/bailpage.aspx?j=48637

DITTO!
1 Sep 2005 ~ 5:19pm profdlp Folks, this is an area where even a small contribution can make a huge difference in the quality of life for those in need. C'mon, a few bucks ain't gonna make or break you.

Besides, we'd all like to put an end to this spectacle:
1 Sep 2005 ~ 5:34pm GnomeWizardd sorry man mine went to the gulf coast
2 Sep 2005 ~ 5:19pm profdlp The situation is becoming even more desperate as the hours pass. Apparently our fearless leader has been hog-tied, and has no access to his keyboard.

I received this (blank) email this afternoon:
3 Sep 2005 ~ 5:54pm profdlp Talk about a convergence of great ideas:

...legendary comedian JERRY LEWIS has announced that his annual Labor Day Telethon benefiting the Muscular Dystrophy Association will also feature celebrity fund-raising appeals for the Katrina relief efforts. He has also announced the MDA will donate a whopping $1 million of its funds to help the victims across Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.

The effects of Hurricane Katrina will be resolved at some point; let's make that true for the ravages of MD as well.
5 Sep 2005 ~ 10:57pm primesuspect Guys, we have $900 to go. Please, even $5 would help. 392 people viewed this thread. If each of them donated $5, we would have this covered. Don't be intimidated by the dollar amounts - $5, $10, $20, anything would help.
6 Sep 2005 ~ 8:59am QCH Not to rain on your Parade, because I've already given but given an option, I would donate to the Red Cross for Disaster Relief before donating for MDA. Of course, I did both so I'm happy.

Overall... Please donate anything you can afford to donate. Your donations can make a real difference to people. Be it Red Cross or MDA.
9 Sep 2005 ~ 3:39pm primesuspect Alright! Only $650 more to go. Thanks everybody who donated so far! I appreciate it!

I viewed the thread twice, so I donated $10.
11 Sep 2005 ~ 2:56pm primesuspect Thank you everybody for the generous donations! I have TWO DAYS TO GO, come on, I need to come up with about $500!

Bust out that credit card, you spend $10 on sillier things than this, you know it...
guilt trip! guilt trip!
13 Sep 2005 ~ 12:23am primesuspect Please! Please everybody! I get locked up in twelve hours and I don't wanna be there all day on the phone!

Listen, if I don't come up with the money, I'll hunt down some of your phone numbers and I WILL BE CALLING YOU

Anything will do - $5, $10, $500, whatever you can spare

thanks!
13 Sep 2005 ~ 10:06am primesuspect two hours left!
14 Sep 2005 ~ 9:05pm primesuspect Thank you everybody! With your help, I was able to raise a total of $1205, which will send two kids afflicted with MDA to MDA summercamp
