    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

After talking with both Maggie Kimmel and Christine Wise on the phone and conversing via pm and e-mail over the past couple weeks I came to understand that monies collected from auctions and donations meant to help Maggie and her children after Chuck's passing were not forwarded to Maggie. Christina attempted to deceive myself and a few other people with a bogus check she manufactured after claiming she sent Maggie the remaining money. After being confronted (mainly by a pm I helped compose from Maggie to the Wise's) I asked Christina to provided me a copy of the check she said she sent to Maggie. Notice the check number on the bottom does not match the check number on the top right. You may also notice the heavier handwriting where it was made out to Maggie, the amount written out and Christina's signature and the lighter writing where the date and the written number amount and the difference between the two.

After confronting Christina with this and telling her I would give her one last chance to make this right and to tell me the truth she hung up on me.

Saturday morning I e-mailed Christina and requested the following:

Shoot me a shot or shots of your pay-pal from the beginning of the auctions through the end and say 2 weeks after that. Both incoming and out going and then make sure to get a copy of the endorsement of the check to Maggie from the bank on Monday if you can't get out today.

She claims to never have received it.

We can discuss the "check" being written days before some auctions even ended at later time as I am rather exhausted.

Oh god....

I'd post everything you have Dand...I would love to see all of the conversations that took place in writing
 
Not to mention, how you gonna write a check on a Sunday, send it out, and have it clear your account on the same Sunday Christine?

Time to take care of this. You messed up by picking a couple of the most reputable people here to include in your little scheme.

Wow, that is such a shame. What is wrong with people. I really don't know what to say. And most here will say.

I also know a thing or two about checks. I manufactued them for years, and yes that check is bogus. I produced millions of checks over the years.
 
I hate to say this but I suspected this awhile back. I wont say why I did, but, I did take a leave from Fauna do to this akward feeling. Really breaks my heart to see that they did this to people who were in need. This "odd" feeling that I had was one of my reasons for being a little distant until recently. If you notice, I stopped posting almost everywhere until those records showed up.

David, thank you for taking this issue up as I have been trying to figure out a way to apologize to them for even suspecting them since posting the donation figures. Now, it seems as though I dont have to.

Rest assured that I will post more later but I am exhausted and I have quite a lot to post but I had to start this for I have zero tolerance for liars. Also, I need to calm down some (well, a lot) too so that I don't receive a ban because understandably so I am rather pissed off! :angry:
 
I completely understand how your feeling DAND....my tummy started turning as soon as I saw the headline to this thread

I do have to say....poor poor Maggie...to be used like this is her darkest hour...oh what Chuck would do if only he could ><
 
Yeah, I'm a little pissed too. I mean, I gave up a couple snakes I really didn't want to part with. I see this as pissing right in Chuck and Maggie's faces.

As far as I'm concerned, they stole $1500 from me, as well as the disgraceful actions to begin with.
 
this is absolutly terrible how could you do this christine w.??????maggie and the kids were in need of help and you took it from them!!!!!!!
 
*sigh* I faith in people every day....I'm am so thankful that this isnt the kind of person I could ever let myself be...

This needs to be resolved...but even when it is....this is not something that can EVER be forgiven

Richard,

I feel partly guilty as well. When those auctions of yours were up, I had my internal monitor going off. I WANTED to say something to everyone, but I cant just accuse people without any shred of proof. Mind you, I DID speak to some people here about how I felt about it to voice my concerns. Too many signs to show me that this was going on. They even forked over a 1000.00 on a deal to beat me out of something and used a "tax refuned" as their excuse how they came up with the monies.

This is making me sick to my stomach.
