It appears the only way to make the calendar is to take orders in advance and then print them and ship them, so I need to know how many calendars to order. If you intend to purchase a calendar, please state the number you want in the comments. It will be around the 20 dollar range (give or take a few), plus shipping.
Also, for those of you who expressed interest in adopting Yuki, here is the link to the application. Make sure you mention her name.
HinTN
First and count me as 2
ETA: Dayum that frist thing was a looooong time ago and as embarrassing as it was he was my senator then.
spudgun
I am in for 1 calendar – thank you John!
geg6
I’m in for 1.
SiubhanDuinne
I’ll order one (1) but may not be able to pay until the first of February.
Query: Is it still possible to get previous years’ calendars from Cafe Press, or have they quit the business altogether? What about other swag, like Tunch tote bags?
Manyakitty
One for me, please!
HinTN
@spudgun: Also too, THANK YOU, Mr C
HinTN
@SiubhanDuinne: It appears that they quit calendars only.
Mike in NC
One, please.
Suffragette City
One thanks!
AndyG
In for 1
HinTN
We are DEPRIVED I tell you mister Cole, deprived. Order 100 with an option for more. If you don’t get 100 I will be embarrassed for this bunch of jackals but I’ll cover the nut. What say you, jackals? Are you with me?
Humdog
Please count me in for two calendars, thank you.
HinTN
Fuck that, Cole. You and I both know you’re keeping that goddamned dog.
Love and kisses
Smedley Darlington Prunebanks (formerly Mumphrey, et al.)
I’ll take one. Do I need to send you my address and all that? Do I send a check? How is this going to work?
Sab
2 for me if I can pay by check. I don’t do paypal.
jeffreyw
Put us down for two.
Big Jim Slade
One, please
Faction
Two, please.
JCC
One for me
SiubhanDuinne
@HinTN:
Are there records for previous years? Should be fairly simple to look at fulfilled orders over the past however-many-years-this-has-been-going-on and extrapolate from those numbers to arrive at a reasonable figure for 2018.
middlelee
One calendar for me, please.
HinTN
@SiubhanDuinne: Cafepress might could provide that data. I cannot. I think it unnecessary. We’re in or we’re out. I’m IN.
Shane in SLC
I’ll take one please.
Miss Bianca
One for me!
Awww, JC, i was hoping you would keep Yuki. As it is, i’m tempted to go for her myself, except i’ve already got 2 doggies!
SiubhanDuinne
@HinTN:
Just trying to make it a little easier on the PTB.
Another Scott
I’ll take two. Thanks for going to the trouble to do this.
Cheers,
Scott.
Zelma
One calendar.
SiubhanDuinne
@HinTN:
Just trying to make it a little easier on the PTB. This way it feels like ordering Girl Scout cookies from the boss’s daughter. And I wasn’t suggesting that you provide the data.
Emrys
Please put me down for one.
eclare
I’d like a calendar.
BeezusQ
One, please
WaterGirl
Cole, I’ll be filling out the Yuki application in your name – will you be around for info if I need it? :-)
Drunkenhausfrau
One, please.
Still the best hangout in the DFH blogosphere.
Mary G
OK, it’s not calendar-related. I will send $20 to the rescue center, but I never use paper calendars and it would just sit on the shelf.
I am on another “maybe I’ll get a dog kick,” and I know John’s sister would consider me too far away, but I have some candidates I am thinking of looking into:
Reggie, who is a ridiculously cute mix of shetland sheep dog and papillon
Cason, who reminds me of Walter and has both a beautiful smile and such a sad story of living on the street with a homeless person
Iggy, an Italian greyhound who has one blue eye and one brown
Whaddaya think?
mai naem mobile
Two. I thought it didn’t have to be paypal? It doesn’t matter to me. I am just mentioning for whoever mentioned it above.
ET
Count me in for 2.
raven
1
raven
You need any dough for the pup just holler.
NA
2 please
mai naem mobile
@Mary G: personally, I think Reggie has that naughty look of a dog who is going to be a handful. I would go with Cason because Iggy is 8 yrs old and you may get less time with him compared to Cason.
KBS
I’ll take one.
Genine Tyson
I’ll take one calendar. Thanks!
Eljai
I will buy 1. Thank you quite a bit.
Yutsano
I just ran an experiment with latkes that is amazingly delicious and would get me drummed out of the family.
I also don’t use paper calendars, but I could kick in to the shelter.
MazeDancer
One calendar, please.
dr. luba
One, please.
daize
One, please. Thanks!
StringOnAStick
One for me please.
Mike J
@Yutsano: Please tell of this latke experiment.
Yutsano
@Mike J: Major deviation: instead of using flour or matzoh meal, I used potato starch. It keeps the edges nice and crispy and gives the interior part a nice chew almost like a rice cake.
It’s also gluten free and kosher. I should kick this over to TaMara!
EDIT: I also used half purple potatoes, which didn’t do as much for the appearance as I had hoped.
Big R
@Mike J: cosign. I’m always here for new ways to do latkes.
Big R
@Yutsano: I would upvote this comment if our commenting system was 21st century.
Yutsano
@Big R: Potato starch was the only change I made. Otherwise it was the standard potato, onion, and egg, Simple Jewish cooking with a slight Asian inspired twist!
SectionH
In for 1 calendar.
laura
I’m in for a calendar. I’m looking foward to seeing some jackal boon companions.
Also, Yuki’s in her forever home, why the fuss and bother with “forms” and “applications”? You’re in love, admit it.
susannabytheseashore
1, thanks.
zhena gogolia
I want one calendar.
dance around in your bones
Please put me down for one (1) calendar.
Yutsano
@Mike J: Also just e-mailed AL about a meet-up possibility two weekends from now.
jackmac
One calendar please
guachi
One calendar, please.
Mrs. guachi isn’t into politics much, but she is into rescuing animal.
Mike J
@Yutsano: We can discuss details of the Balloon Cruise at that time. I think it’s better if we just pick a date several months off and tell people to reserve it now. Overnight camping trip to Blake Island, which you can only get to on tour boat or private boat. At least four people at the last meet said they were up for it, and I’ll provide the (club’s) boat if people will sign up for figuring out food and stuff.
K488
Count me in for one copy of the calendar!
J R in WV
@Yutsano:
I just grate potatoes and onions, a little salt and pepper, fry, usually in bacon fat, but olive oil works too. Or Safflower oil if you want to fry hotter.
I never saw the need for eggs or flour. Potatoes have plenty of starch and stick together fine. Then when eating them I use Sirriacha sauce, sorry about the speling, it’s late.
Goo’night all.
The Red Pen
I’ll take 3.
Mike J
@J R in WV: All the best latkes are fried in bacon fat.
Beatrice
One, thank you. I keep looking at the empty space on my kitchen wall where last year’s was. Sad!
Beatrice
@Mary G: I love Cason’s happy face. He’s the one that would be calling to me.
something fabulous
one please!
Yutsano
@Mike J: Duck fat or GTFO.
satby
@Mary G: Cason! He deserves a living life with someone as great as you are!
JC, I want two calendars, please.
SectionH
@Mike J: Wait, what?
Mike J
@SectionH: I’m gonna grab a boat and we’re gonna spend the night on Blake Island. Some time this late spring or summer.
BC in Illinois
One for me.
I need to count the 299 days until election day.
SectionH
Must be a biggish boat if you’re mentioning it publicly. It interests me strangely. Eta: not sure my old knees would be up to it, but still.
LayedBackGuy
I am willing to pre-pay, and wait the 4-6 weeks for delivery. Can you set up something like that on the Feed page? There is going to be some Tunch in this calendar, I assume? Otherwise I will demand my money back!
Mike J
@SectionH: Nah, I don’t think more than 7 or 8 will actually want to spend a night when we get 12-15 for a beer based meetup. It’s a Catalina 27 (the boat we’re turning around here) and if we’re full people can sleep ashore as well as aboard.
Elie
Put me in for a calendar — look forward to it!
The Lodger
I’d also like a calendar please.
R. Bailey
One for me, thanks. Any chance we can pay via PayPal?
gammyjill
Since my two wonderful cats, “The Obama Twins”, are in the calendar again this year, I’ll take one. They’re the tabby and the tuxie grooming each other. “Alice Obama” and “Robin Obama”.
woodrowfan
put me down for one (1) please…

@Mary G:
Cason grabbed me. Go get him.
