What does "in baskets" mean? Looks like 588 is done. I wish I could give more, but I just went into private practice on my own, so money's a big question mark lately.

It's hot. I'm literally sweating with just wearing boxers and sitting at the desk. I can't sleep like this. So, rather than twiddle thumbs, it sounds like a good idea to take a deep look at this great project.

I can see how it could be taken the wrong way, but seriously, that's not it.

Who cares... three loans done. Anyone brave enough to search, recommend a fourth and begin bugging people for it?

What about Banana's 592 idea? Very high amount, but not unreasonably so.

592 is 72% funded. Anyone willing to help fund a new store in Cambodia?

No is even being asked to give, just to loan. You don't have to give up Starbucks, just defer it for a week and get to go twice as often in 12-18 months.

I decided to help out 621 and her dairy business. $125 to go.

You tend to feel selfish whining about an expensive wireless MM, when that amount can change someone's life.

NosferaDrew, thank you. Fellowship also helped from that other place. That loan is now fully-funded.

Lurch, thanks for helping fund and pointing out another loan. I'll mention it in that other place.

Anyone else taken Kiva from here and mentioned it in another location?

I got an email today saying that the person I loaned to couldn't live up to their terms for the loan, so they gave me a refund. Anyone else get this email?

Yeah, I got two of them today.

Anyone down with 933? I'll start the ball rolling if I can get a little Kiva love from the Aldo posse.

I got the same email message as well. Probably a good thing though as some parties had concerns about the loans and their viability. Now we know for sure there are standards not just with Kiva, but with the partner organizations with which they work.
