Great job everyone!!! I don't mind accepting checks or money order via mail... Let's wait until we get to around just 4 or 5 tickets available... then I'll PM my address (in KS) to send it to.

macjuicy23, I'm glad John is doing better. You're really a great guy to stay home for a few days to help him. ^_^

I'll probably go the snail mail route to RIDE. I'm no fan of PayPal, though I use it for paying for things w/ credit card. Still, I trust RIDE.

(OT - I almost lost this post by checking new posts. Aaaargh!)

UPDATE

Wow. Almost 2/3 there. Amazing, but I knew it would happen, and I know it will make it the rest of the way.

Now how will YOU carry that iPod Touch when YOU win it? Not that you're going to win it. I will of course, but probabilities being what they are, you could win it. 8GB. Nice.

Sounds great.....

My dad purchased Halo 3 he also bought him a couple of the pins they sell for halo... I also have 2 games that a friend donated Nascar 08 and Saints Row (which Im debating giving him becuase of the whole gang violence thing) so everything is looking really good so far... hes going to have an Xbox 360 with 3 games, and I will be video taping me giving it to john so all of you can share in whats going to be a great day!

Im hoping we get some new ticket sales today.... Dont forget to all you quick readers we are giving away an IPOD Touch 8gb! not to mention you will be making a little boy so happy!

Only $10.00 per ticket

Since we are only selling 42 tickets you have will have a great chance....

Thanks again...

I'm guessing that postage to the UK would be too expensive. Anyway, I'm sure you'll raise the money very quickly. It's really nice to see the Internet, as well as this forum, being used in such a positive way.
