One more post on our buddy Kristofer J. Harley. The folks over at Duckworks magazine have setup some sort of fund for Harley to help him get his boat back home and, I suppose, prepare for round two. It seems that they’ve already raised over $1000 US dollars. I think there are certain admirable qualities about Harley and his ambitions – especially in the environment of so many nay-sayers. However, I’m not sure that further supporting his round the marble trip is such a great idea for his own well being. Make up your own mind and contribute if you care too over at the Duckworks Site. After all of this, I have taken away at least one golden nugget that I’m sure to use in the future; “aaawww shoot…a little goo will do!”.

Here is the latest news on Harley:

I talked to Harley on the phone this evening (Friday, the 25th of August) and he was in good spirits. I was able to tell him that through the generosity of family and friends, we had deposited almost a thousand dollars into his account. He seemed genuinely humbled and thankful.

Harley told me that he had been in touch with his former employer and was able to get his job back. In addition, he fully intends to maintain his dream and will make another attempt next year.
