Raspbernie Posted May 22, 2007 Author Share Posted May 22, 2007 Thanks to everyone who bought a pin yesterday. We're on our way to our goal of selling enough pins to pay for production. If enough pins sell to make this offering a success, I am considering the idea of continuing with a second pin commemorating the 30th Anniversary of "Boats Against The Current" coming in August! Wow! "Weekend At Bernie's," Eric's birthday, AND the 30th Anniversary of the greatest album ever made! This calls for a celebration! Um…er…that is, if anyone out there feels like having ANOTHER party! BerniePS: Buy a pin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll buy anything you come up with commemorating Boats (pins, EC autographed CD's, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Tim and Laura...just having a little fun. I live in central Kentucky which is mostly farmland (it's not all mountains, hillbillies and inbreeding in KY...except for Eastern KY which is all mountains, hillbillies and inbreeding!). We use the "dairy air" thing here. My Sister-In-Law went to Wisconsin last year for some Civil Service training. She came back talking about how beautiful it is up there. She said it's a lot like our area but less humidity in the Summer and much harsher Winters. She also brought back cheese... I don't remember where in Wisconsin she went (I don't always listen when my SIL talks).We have a couple of Packer fans at work (one is actually from Wisconsin) that we give a hard time. I know it's sophmoric, but I enjoy all the border states / sports rivalry slamming. Like:What keeps KY from sliding into Tennessee? Indiana sucks!What do you call a pretty girl in ______? a touristWhy do they have artifical turf on the University of ____'s football field? so the cheerleaders won't graze at halftime.Why is Indiana wanting to build another bridge to KY? so the Hoosiers can swim over in the shadeDuane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspyrock Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 What's the best thing comin' outta 'Bama? : I-20How do we know the toothbrush was invented in Alabama? ---- Anywhere else woulda called it --- 'teethbrush'!!

Raspbernie Posted May 24, 2007 Author Share Posted May 24, 2007 I just received my pin today and it's a beaut !!!Glad you like the pin, Diane! For anyone who bought either of the books, it should come as no big surprise that "quality" is my middle name. So if I'm gonna make pins, I'm gonna make 'em the best pins you can manufacture!

AnniekNY Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 These pins are just beautiful - I took your advice and bought more than one. i was not going to wear it for fear of losing it, but you solved that!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspyrock Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Our mail service is so screwed up here the clergy rants against it ---- I may get mine after the int'l bunch!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Mmmm... If that's all the Clergy have got to rant about over there you are doin OK. I suspect there are more important things but sometimes people get caught up in the small things in life. Muzza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a great logo whoever (Bernie? Kathy?) designed it. What about on a tee shirt? Could be used as a fundraiser and to promote the site....I'd buy one.

Muzza Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Yeah... I'd buy two Tee Shirts. One for me and one for Kiwi. I think its a great idea thoughMuzza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspyrock Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 NEED MORE ERIC GEAR!!!!! ...... and I posted on the Raspberries forum that they need more sizes for the T-shirts besides just large ,,,,, I'm not the wisp of a fella I used to be.MUZZA: Actually one pastor mentioned it (outta the blue) and everybody else rants --- including me. Once I sent a friend up in Maryland 2 checks for funds that he really needed. I think I sent one on Tuesday and one on Friday when I got paid.Guess which one arrives 1st?? Yep, the 2nd one and then a few days later the 1st one. AHHHH!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScentLady Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 My pin arrived in the mail today. The pin is much larger than it looks in the photos. Thank you Kathy. Thank you Bernie. It's always a special treat to get mail that doesn't say "pay this amount" on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
