I was going to stuff them in the Gremlin's home, but there's a cache there.

Ian, I will save you one or two!!!

FYI- The Bouncing Team is wearing our buttons!

Also, Jerry Kane Prince of the East Wind 2006 actually approached me and asked me for one!

does such a thing exist?

that's my fear. i avoided and got rid of vulcan buttond until this year. i picked up about 100 just hours before the PDG. talked to scribe about a few of what i thought were 'oddball' buttons, and i started getting a history lesson, timeline synopsis and all other kinds of 'sis

Too cool about the East Wind *asking* for one of OUR buttons!!

I also still have a number left if anyone else is still looking for one. Ian -- didn't you get one the night of the PDG? Maybe you had to barter it away for cool WC stuff.... :smile:

FWIW - If people as a whole would be agreeable, if it seems like the general consensus is that we should use the buttons for freebies and merry-making, NEXT YEAR, I would like to solicit *small* donations from anyone that would like to contribute and the buttons can be given out FREE for everyone.

I think it's great what you guys did -- but you shouldn't have to foot the bill alone to be the ambassador of friendship and fun!

Ian -- didn't you get one the night of the PDG?

Yes.

But when one comes home from an evening at a bar, one should remove things from one's pockets prior to one's clothing being washed. The text disappeared. :frown:

Hey *mom* I'd like to get a button. Missed out at the RHB, got there too late :sheepish:

Ian you didn't happen to get any extras from the Halloween hoopla event did you? I had a similar problem to the washing (only mine was due to caching in the rain...).

Yeah, I have Hoopla. I just won this.

I raided the Bouncing Team room last night and took all of Roger's buttons off of his pullover, which was conveniently hanging in an open closet.

I'll be holding them for ransom until I can be a puller!

It's not stealing, because Kat and I left a note. :smile: :pbpt: :sillygrin:

nice deal on those ones Ian. Good thing I already got em though (I'm pretty sure I spent more for just a single year set)
Fri, 02/10/2006 - 9:47 PM Permalink
King Boreas aka Ian

I only needed one of the two (for my second collection), but if I sell the other one, then I got mine for free.

I like free.

Are you guys seeing a "remote linking forbidden" graphic. I'm REALLY getting pissed off. I've been with freeservers over 6 years, and I've had a premium account for a long time.

yeah I see it. what's up with that?

If you ever need to switch, I know the place I got my website through is pretty cheap.
