Subject: All EFF members,except Frank p, Please Read. Posted by: Yohan - [287331714] Thu, Sep 07, 13:25 since frank won the tipping com. for the finals, can us yanks put our heads together and think of some sort of prize to send to him? any suggestions? | ||||||

Though i am not lucky enough to be a Yank, may I humbley offer the following suggestions: 1. A deck of 53 cards (include an extra ace - no worries, Frank p will change the rules when he draws five aces) 2. My autographed photo of famous American baseball player (and misunderstood young man) John Rocker. 3. The part of the "crow that I did not eat" upon being "whooped" by *almost the entire board. (note the humbling use of Yankee cliche') *oh the shame, Edpearl! I WILL RETURN!!! CORDIALLY, I REMAIN, CHADWICK X. HENRY | |||||

very funny, CHAD! I've pretty pretty successful finding small sports memorabilia on Ebay for this kind of thing. Maybe a signed photo or something. I'd be happy to chip in a little something, if so. pd | |||||

I've got an autographed photo of Chad Henry leading his gradeschool to the Premiership in 1965, do you think Frank p would appreciate that? Actually, maybe Frank p would appreciate a hockey souvenir, maybe a cap or something. Which is his favorite team? | |||||
| 4 | Yohan ID: 287331714 Tue, Sep 12, 10:11 | perm dude would you care to take a look to see what you can find? i'd chip in myself. | |||||
| 5 | Perm Dude ID: 38842118 Tue, Sep 12, 11:42 |
Sure, I'll look around, and post some finding here. pd | |||||
| 6 | edperl ID: 07422914 Tue, Sep 12, 15:46 | I reread Frank p's profile, and he likes the Red Wings in hockey. Perhaps a souvenir in that vein. Maybe something with the jilted Federovs autograph, or is he back with her again. I think we'll need an update. | |||||

Good idea. Here are some possibilities (sorry, I can't link. What a dumbass): http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=431453926 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=430446160 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=432520483 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=435124057 http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=432782227 [we should probably get him this anyway :)] Some of these items will close quite quickly, but similar items come up all the time (indeed, items which close without bids generally get put right back up). What do you guys think? pd | |||||
| 8 | Yohan ID: 07422914 Wed, Sep 13, 15:27 | i vote for the signed puck. i bet frank p has plenty of beer drinking vessels! :) | |||||
| 9 | rugg ID: 458201310 Thu, Sep 14, 09:23 | The puck sounds cool. I'll chip in. Just let me know how and when. If nothing else Frank can use it for self defense if he's ever in certain bars in Adelaide. | |||||
| 10 | Perm Dude ID: 38842118 Thu, Sep 14, 10:08 |
OK, I'll check if the puck (or another like it) is available. Let's wait to send any money until the total cost is known. Here's my information in the meantime: Fred Courtright The Permissions Company P. O. Box 243 High Bridge, NJ 08829 pd | |||||
| 11 | edperl ID: 07422914 Thu, Sep 14, 10:31 | Definitely the puck, all they have down Frank p's way is a bunch of over inflated footballs. The check is in the mail. | |||||
| 12 | Perm Dude ID: 247581222 Sun, Sep 17, 08:34 |
OK, the puck is available, $29, including shipping to me. Let's say $5 per person--we'll see if we can get 6 to contribute. I'll throw in $5, plus the cost of shipping to Frank P. I'm going to go ahead and get the thing, so send your share of the money to me at the address above. Thanks! pd | |||||
| 13 | Tim G ID: 598431718 Mon, Sep 18, 00:50 | Great ideas Yohan and Perm Dude. I'll send my check to PD. | |||||
| 14 | rugg ID: 12532216 Fri, Sep 22, 08:34 | This may sound strange, but can I just send a finsky, or do you want a check? Does it matter? | |||||
| 15 | Perm Dude ID: 55845197 Fri, Sep 22, 08:41 |
Doesn't matter. I've already sent in the check to the guy for the puck, so cash, check, MO, doesn't matter. Got your check this morning, Tim. Thanks. Is everyone here also playing in the EFF Hockey division? Fred | |||||
| 16 | rugg ID: 12532216 Fri, Sep 22, 08:48 |
I'm in, and I think most of the other guys are, too. Sadly, Mrs. Pez will not be joining. I had a hard enough time keeping her in the once a week Aussie game. I think I'll live. I'll get the money out to you in a few days. | |||||
| 17 | edperl ID: 07422914 Fri, Sep 22, 10:44 |
My contribution to be mailed soon. It looks like most of the EFF sans Chad Henry has entered the league. Looks like we have some heavyweights entered too, like CodeCracker, Walk, Hark, and I almost forgot to mention myself, me, edperl.;-) Should be a great year! | |||||
| 18 | Perm Dude ID: 55845197 Wed, Oct 04, 10:52 |
Got the puck today, and I'll send it off to Frank P as soon as I compose a flowery note from all of us ;) The same guy who sold us this one has a similar puck on Ebay. If you want to see what I'm sending, the auction has a picture and the signatures, including the date, are almost exactly the same: http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=453575289 Thanks to all who contributed. Strange--never got a check from Chad Henry... pd | |||||
| 19 | Yohan ID: 287331714 Sat, Oct 07, 10:24 | excellent job Fred!!!! | |||||
| 20 | rugg ID: 559271312 Fri, Oct 13, 12:27 | Nice work, pd! I hope Frank displays the puck proudly next to the footy ball, which no doubt rests on the mantle during the off-season. | |||||
| 21 | Perm Dude ID: 55845197 Fri, Oct 13, 12:36 |
He should be getting the puck any day now. Of course, we won't be so nice in the hockey division. pd | |||||
