The answer is: three. One to actually fix it, and the other two to stand around and comment on how great English sports cars were back in...England. Oil leaks, dubious electrics, and all. Aye lads! She still runs! Or is it a "he?"This bit of playful irrelevancy takes us to the subject at hand: WE - meaning all of us who try or have tried to purchase tickets through the link on this blog - are having some problems with the PayPal page which is supposed to be enabled in order to allow said purchases. Your brave, yet inept, blog mechanic has now attempted repairs twice, testing the link four times. Yet, the problem surfaced again. It appears to be a PayPal "quirk."
The first thing is, when you click on the link it should take you to a page with the header "Immaculata-La Salle High School," and underneath the header, a sub-header titled "Class of 1968 Reunion Eveing." Yes, it should be "Evening," but it is not. The point being, if the page does not have those two headers, you are in the wrong PayPal site and will not be able to buy admission for the Friday school event. Although the link is working even as this is being written, just like the classic Jaguar XKE, it may be working now, and then again next time you 'crank 'er up,' it may just conk out on you.
Why this happens is, to paraphrase Churchill, a "mystery wrapped within an enigma." Curiously, if you enter the PayPal site via the post titled "A Lil' Technical Difficulty...has been overcome" then things magically work and so far this method of accessing the problematic page has given no trouble. Sorry this has been so vexing for all of you who have attempted to make your purchase, but please try again! If at first you don't succeed...blame the Blog Shade-Tree Mechanic! He knows how to break things all by his little self, no help wanted!
