The record-breaking total! Over $23,000! WOW!

You people rock!

PAUL WILL BE SHAVING HIS BEARD ON CAMERA TOMORROW, IN THE AFTERNOON, PACIFIC TIME.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Paul’s beard is not long for this world as we’re within $1000 of last year’s goal!

You heard right! We are now sitting pretty at 21,000 Dollars, which means 1,805.01 more and Paul will shave that glorious goatee of his!

Before we were even finished cheering for our $19,000 milestone, we broke $20K!

IT’S A NUMBER!!!

I think YES!

So later this afternoon we will be having none other than Wil Wheaton (Of Star Trek fame) calling in to give us some support and just generally be awesome. But we need your help to make the call as kick ass as possible.

I am putting this up as early as possible to get as many questions for the man. So whatever you got, post your questions for the man here. Lets hear it!!!

Well we are now 32 hours into this thang we call Desert Bus and we are now sitting at 17,000.00!

HOT DAMN!!!

First off, welcome! No doubt you’ve followed a link from one of the many places that linked us, like PA, Kotaku, Joystiq, or one of the multitude of other sites that have shown us their support. To bring you up to speed, we are loadingreadyrun.com, a sketch comedy group based out of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Every year, (well, every year since last year,) we put on this gaming marathon for Child’s Play, that requires us to play the world’s most boring video game “Desert Bus” for as long as you, the viewers, keep donating to buy hours. Each hour costs a little bit more than the last, though. Last year’s drive went 108 hours long, and raised $22,805. We’re hoping to blow past that this year, and we’re on track to do it.

We have guest drivers and callers this year, a bunch of prize packs, and a raffle for a copy of rock band 2 that was donted to us by Harmonix themselves. Stay tuned in you wouldn’t want to miss anything!

Thanks for your support, hope you’ll stick around!
