We hope that your Terrance Day went well, and that you have purchased the correct amount of calendars for the coming year. We also hope you dream of things that aren’t monsters, because those things are scary and are a bad omen for the coming year. Science has proved it.

The Mustache Rangers smell things in this week’s podcast adventure. Enjoy it much.

The Mustache Rangers are back in action, with the help of their helpful fans. That means it is time for a new episode, just in time for the holiday season! It’s like a present! A free present that always has been free and is free again!

Donations reached to 75% of the goal, so there is still room if you would like to support the Mustache Rangers. Just because the podcasts are back does not mean the funding is complete. The Mustache Rangers just couldn’t wait to bring new episodes to the public. So enjoy the new podcast, and consider a donation if you have not done so yet.

We are a touch above the halfway point in our donation drive. The show of support for the Mustache Rangers has been fantastic so far, and we’re hoping to make up the final $100 dollars with your help.

But as a show of good faith, our replacement equipment has been purchased. That means we will begin production of new Mustache Rangers episodes as quickly as possible.

We are hoping that, if you have yet to donate at this point, you will at least consider it. The Mustache Rangers has been putting out this free production for almost two years now. And we are happy to keep your ears stuffed with adventures. But we are not too proud to ask for help.

So there is your not-so-funny-but-still-exciting news update. New episodes coming soon, and donate if you find the means. Thank you, citizens and cadets alike!

The Mustache Rangers will be making a short stop in Chicago this weekend to lighten to mood for the sullen midwesterners. While the Mustache Rangers generally save their good-time stage antics for the timid people of Minnesota, Illinoisians will soon be able to fill their heads with live tales of real adventure.

Here are your details:

Where: The Playground Theater
Address: 3209 N Halsted Street, Chicago, IL
Time: Saturday, December 13, 2008 at 8:00pm
Price: $10.00

And you get more than just the Mustache Rangers. You get to see three groups of performers who are not the Mustache Rangers. That’s a deal and a half. Or, rather, four deals for the price of one deal.

So come to the show, if live in or around the Chicago-land area. But be careful. It is the windy city, and a politician may just blow in your ear. That means they like you.

The head accountants at Mustache Rangers Central Command have finished counting the current donations. Actually, it’s just one accountant and he was hired specifically for donation counting. Once the goal is reached, he will be fired. But do not cry. The fund drive is nearly half-over! How much nearly half-over exactly? Well, the keen graphic bellow will tell you the story.

Just a quick update, with no graphics. Graphics take time, and time is money. So we don’t want to spend any time.

We have reached 35% of our goal. Keep it coming, boys and girls. Make Doc Johnson proud.

To the delight and the shock of the Mustache Rangers, funds for functioning recording equipment have continued to roll in. We have reached the 30% mark, which is 10% more mark than yesterday.

This process may take a little longer than it would seem. Most fans of the Mustache Rangers limit their interaction to podcast downloading, and not website visiting. And that is not a dig at their process. Really, there has been little reason to come visit the website when you can automatically download the weekly podcast with little hassle. So many fans may not be seeing this entertaining message of pleading.

We hope to continue the updating of good time reading words here, to accompany the good time listening words. So along with the return of the podcast episodes, we hope to keep you entertained with daily articles on the perils and pleasures of space travel. Or recipes for things containing crust and fruit.

To wrap up this missive, we offer our humblest thanks to everyone who has donated thus far. We appreciate your efforts to make our efforts more effortless.

And, of course, the donation button can be found below.

After a quick first day of requesting donations, the Mustache Rangers have received their first contribution. As you can see by the hastily thrown together graphic of what might be a thermometer, donations are almost up to the $40 dollar mark. And almost $40 dollars is almost $50 dollars. That is almost almost a quarter way to the $200 goal.

If everyone who listened to the Mustache Rangers gave a single lonely dollar, the goal would be met handily. Of course, those are pie in the sky hopes. And while we do own a rocket ship, the pie seems to be forever out of reach.

To make things more reasonable, if 20 people gave $10 each, the goal could also be met. There are many ways to make numbers equal other numbers. Use your imaginations.

Well, it’s time for the Mustache Rangers to have more adventures. Unfortunately, there is still no recording device to capture their adventures. If the Mustache Rangers have adventures without a recording device to capture them, are they still incredibly amusing?
