jceman 1 #1 June 7, 2004 Okay, folk, here's an update and (another) complaint: As of right now, we have 58% of the needed funds for the tent and furnishings at WFFC 2004. That's not bad, but when I checked back to my notes from last year I found I had been able to declare the goal met on the 19th of May! I know that the bar was raised this year as we are getting a larger (read "more expensive") tent, but we are almost $150 short of what I had received via PayPal alone at that time! I know you're tired of hearing me carp, whine, and complain, but there is a very easy way to shut me up: those of you who use Paypal can click here; if you wish to send your contribution directly to me you may click here to PM me for details. I haven't seen Rev. Jim's list of attendees in a while, but I seem to recall that it came to over 120 dropzone.com members who plan on attending; of those, only a dozen or so have contributed to the tent (which is being provided for all). Most are the same people who contributed the last two years. Several have made more than one contribution. Several members have contributed even though they'll not be in attendance -- we all need to really thank them! Where are the rest of you? Enquiring minds want to know. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunshine 2 #2 June 7, 2004 Jack, i know you didn't want to list who donated, but maybe you should...might just kick people into gear about sending you some money. Just my thought... ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisL 2 #3 June 7, 2004 That would be the same as listing the people that DIDNT donate. I for one dont respond well to people trying to use guilt to pressure me into giving them money Just a thought.__ My mighty steed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jceman 1 #6 June 7, 2004 I appreciate the thought, Sunny, but I don't want to set up any distinctions between those who contribute and those who don't. The tent is for all, regardless. I just wish a few more people would help out so I can go on and worry about other things. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Brains 2 #7 June 7, 2004 [RANT] Ok people, i live vicariously through all of you who attend the WFFC. I see the pictures, i hear the stories. So much of that happens in the Dropzone.com tent. Now, send money to jack so the tent will be a nice place to hang out for some major nig-noggery, i need stuff like that since i can not attend. Hell, I sent him money just so i can hear more stories, and see more pics. [/RANT] Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

WFFC 1 #8 June 7, 2004 Jack- I'd definately donate if I didn't have my own sizable expense to put into what the onsite webteam does every year. Will a bottle of margarita mix help?----- ~~~Michael Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why yes, yes it would. Now if I can just get someone to administer it intravenously. . . Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.
