Can y'all help spot the server bill?

Received an email from my web host this weekend: apparently they've been trying to get payment from a less-than-full credit card these last few months and just realized that their charges weren't going through. Yikes. In the past I've used my Paypal donations credit card to pay the bill on the account that covers QuakerQuaker, QuakerRanter, etc., but when donations dried up this summer, I switched to my personal day-to-day card which fluctuates depending on the status of our kitchen cupboards (currently out of yogurt, low on crackers, milk might be gone).
The bill's up to $135.90 and the next month should be due soon. Do Friends want to chip in and help spot some of this? If I get enough I'll switch the bill back to the donations account altogether.
PS: for those following links, I've been ranting up a bit about money issues, Friends, and the state of our beat neighbors here in the U.S. of A. over in the comments at Classy Jeanne and Agitator Dave's recent posts (might be awaiting confirmation). Apologies to both for my long-windedness, there's obviously some intriguing issues sorting themselves together in my head and heart these days.

Did anyone help out with this, Martin? Things are really tight this month, but I might be able to help out with the server bill next month.
Hi Funnel, yes there were a bunch of small donations that almost added up to the total (close enough at least). Whatever you could do would be great. It'd be nice if enough dough trickled in from here and there to cover each month's bills (it'd be nicer if I won the lottery or got a call from Google or Yahoo begging me to become their VP of Cool Ideas but that's another story).
