Wow. History’s first-ever Pants-athon is of to a swell start. Here’s a sampling of what’s come into the NR coffers this past hour.

Fashion guru George sent $25 smackers with this advice: “Tell Jonah to wear shorts and flip flops with his coat and tie on top, the next time he is on Fox!”

Richard pulls one out of the insult files, sends 100 bucks, enough to buy four pairs of pants, and these words of encouragement: “Don’t let that ‘short-fingered vulgarian’ push you around, Jonah.”

Guy sees those four and matches with a C-Note, and then comments: “The thought of a half-naked Jonah, enough said. As we said in the Navy, Well Done National Review.” I prefer medium rare, but that’s a matter of taste Guy.

And finally, Mike chimes in with $25, accompanied by this suggestion with the sound effect spelled out: “Corduroy, whoosh whoosh.”

Whoosh whoosh indeed! I whoosh more of you will give before the Jonah Pantsathon ends Sunday at midnight. Thank you one and all who have given. Keep them coming. Donate here.
