Agreed 100%.

Three hole punches are the bomb!

What a great solution! You're so clever, Turtle.

I miss Frenchy, as well!

You're very welcome, dear Karen. Our friendship means a lot to me.

Oh, there you are, Karen. Btw, I wrote my answer before I saw your post.

Thank you so much, LuckyMcSwervy. I am so touched by your kind words. You're a love.

I hate those.

To everyone~ This is a thread that is constantly changing with updates. Latest news: I am going to have about 3 prints to choose from during the auction. At Boneanza, there will be the following fundraising opportunities: * JFTC auction * JFTC raffle * Pink ribbon rubber duck sale * JFTC bake sale * JFTC jello shots at the party I am going for gold with the fundraising. I hope to have something for everyone.

Heehee, I will break down the posts and time frame for you. Today, Briles bumped this thread, asking the following: How many people are gona be there? Or is it on da computer? I posted that it was taking place on Sunday of the Boneanza boogie, and he posted about how an auction would be better. My initial posts (including #2) had been made on Tuesday. By the end of the day on Tuesday, I had already decided with Jeff (photographer) to make it an auction, but I didn't post that, yet. I didn't think I wanted to post about it again, until I have all the logistics nailed down. Tonight, since Briles bumped up the thread asking where this was taking place, I answered him that it would be at Boneanza. I had not posted yet, that it was going to be an auction or raffle. When he assumed that it would be a raffle at Boneanza, that was when I asked why he was assuming that it was a raffle, not an auction. I had not posted either way, yet. It wasn't ME who made the initial assumptions. In any case, I'm happy that Briles is interested in being a part of this.

I wrote to ask "if I should auction or raffle the print". How is that stating that it's definitely a raffle, not an auction?

Thats a kool idea. I want that Johnny Knoxville signed poster/pic. And its going to an amazing cause so HELLS YEA!!! Briles Fantastic! Johnny already agreed right away to sign it, so I'm happy. I'll keep all of you posted.

It's ok. I am thinking of updating the status of the auction via iphone to my Facebook, so others can also text in their bids to me. I have to set a cut off time, and I will do a last call, too.

Thank you so much, Shell! It's for an amazing cause. I'm cutting off & donating my hair to breast cancer patients in Nov, too. I hope I can raise more breast cancer awareness funds then, as well.

Huh Raffles arent as interesting as austions... A bunch of nutty skydivers could make for a very entertaining auction which could lead to higher bids. I think the auction would be fun if its well organized. Briles Why did you assume it was a raffle? I said it was going to be at Boneanza. I'm having a raffle for the skydiving gear, 10 minutes of tunnel time, Liquid Sky coupon, etc. and I am having an auction, too. I already told the photographer on the day that he offered my the signed prints, that I would do an auction. I will be able to display them and have people bid on them throughout the day.

How many people are gona be there? Or is it on da computer? Briles It's going to be at Elsinore's Boneanza Boogie on Sunday, August 9th.

You're not the only one. ltdiver LORI!!! You're one of the last persons I'd have thought would think that.

That's foul. Any woman who is rough enough downstairs to not need to wear panties outside of the home scares me, especially if she goes commando with jeans. Um, that hurts.

Oh Olympia, dear...don't worry about being seen in your thong for a brief (ha) moment. I'm sure there are worse things that could happen. I know I've had worse situations myself. It's all good, sweet lady.

Yes, she does!!!!

Omg!!! Great photos of Michelle, Billy. RIP.

Ok, I just spoke with the photographer, Jeff. Gwen's is a never published photo. I was just shown all of the prints to see which ones I want for the JFTC auction, and Gwen's is AWESOME. She wasn't posing. He said that he could get a group one signed by all, once they get back into town. We aren't sure if she'd sign the one taken of her that is unpublished. The photographer is closer to one of the band members, but the unpublished shot of Gwen is AWESOME. She is wearing a huge white down coat, and I think he said it was during down time of a video in '99. I will find a way to show it to you, but for now, my friend doesn't want anyone else to see it. He's worried about people posting or publishing it without his consent.

Honestly, I think that Jeff's an artist, and all of his photos are really beautiful. I'm sure that just about anything will raise a lot of cash for JFTC. I'm going to ask Jeff if he'd like to come to the actual Jump for the Cause event to take some pics on the ground. I think he'd get some amazing shots. He's so talented. Edited: Oh my God, Jeff just showed me the prints. They are all SO GREAT!!!!

Neither are Jeff or I, but he's donating what he had a extra print of ready to go in his vast collection.

Your mind is permanently in the gutter, Jake! It was sort-of funny, though.
