Good idea. This is what we've got so far, with many pledges including Rick Belhumeur's famous fudge. But this is actually what's here already:

Donator Item Sale Price Buyer
Billy Dunne Red 168g Vibram Ascent
Billy Dunne Red & Black Swirl 172g Vibram Ascent
Billy Dunne Pale green 169g Vibram Ascent

That's pretty funny Jon. Those two discs have had their own special spot on the backroom pro shop table for a few days now, not quite penetrating our conscious brains, but definitely in their own "What could these two discs possibly mean?" space.

I'm a MEOW? Bobby D out of the blue calls me (wait, I meant "ME!") a MEOW?

Ahhh, a random attack on my masculinity, how perfectly exquisitely lovely. The shackles fall like paint flaking from a beach front porch even though the salesperson said "today's" latex is every bit as good as oil.

It's like Bobby's mom heckling me in full naked body Vaseline Twister. She might beat me, but it's full naked body Vaseline Twister; there ARE no losers.

I asked Bobby's mom what that means, and she said something but I couldn't understand her. Later I remembered the ball gag -- our Twister penalty for swearing.

So Bobby D I think you picked the right division, the one with all the best players in it. One look at the Pro division and that's pretty much everyone who used to be good or wants to be good. I acknowledge your sportsmanship in picking the division that offers the highest level of excellence at this tournament.

Jason,
Had a blast hiking the course with you, Cale and the dogs. I think my son is warming up to dogs by being around Bella. The brussel sprouts and the carrots were delicious. I mean, killah brussel sprouts. Cale munched up all the carrots we put on his dinner plate. It was just sooooo cool to come to your house to drop off auction items and get a hike and some fresh produce from your garden.
I'm hoping people fill the tournament. It really is the tournament with the most fun to be had, all the while raising THOUSANDS of dollars for really cool charities.
The food, the beverages, the shiiit talking, the camaraderie, the auction items, the fudge and the overall excitement in the air at this tournament makes it one not to miss.

If you want to have a better chance of winning your division, DONATE MORE ITEMS to the auction. It's kind of like paying it forward to karma. No, not Karma the dog across the street, the karma that lets a turd of a throw, ricochet off a tree into the basket for an ace.
Ever have one of those????
Then donate more. More than you think you can donate. The list of items available at the auction is already great, but c'mon, Mike Saimond put like 97 items in there :wink:
Quit the alligator arms bullhsit, and dig deep and cough up some nice donations.
You'll play better if you do. Tree's will just straight up move out of your discs way :shock:

If LiCk brings the bravebull stuff, don't be a homomo, take a big swig if it's offered to you.
Then after you are over that gag reflex I'm-gonna-barf feeling, take one more swig :lol:
It will help you play better.

I guess this sums it up for me when considering Drew Austin's choice of division.

I bought one of Ken's baskets, a few years ago, at the auction. It sits in my office and makes for a great conversation starter.

As the most prolific poster in NEFA history, I am auctioning off my signature space for 3 months.

For 90 whole days, you can have whatever you want IN MY SIGNATURE!

Buyer beware, I will not change the way I post, but you can put whatever you want in my signature for that time period. You can make me post stuff about myself, you can create photoshopped pictures of Bob Direnzo and I in compromising positions (has to follow the board rules however), you can post ads for products, clubs, bars, ricola cough drops, whatever.

Remember, I am poster NUMERO UNO! you can not tell me what to post and what not to post, but you'll be sure that whatever you request in my signature, it'll be there for the next 90 days.

I love public humiliation, and trust me, just b/c I will have some homo-erotic picture in my signature, I will continue to post at WILL.

Put it on the table Hoey!

I won't be there to witness it, but hell I bet it'll be funny!

Ken,

Maybe working on the premise that silvers will be played (shorter, more birdies, etc.) that 2nd round and that gives us 3 hours (it'll be tight but I think doable).

That gives you 2.5-2.75 hours. Sunset is at 4:22. It is pretty darn dark at 445 and you are not playing golf without glowsticks at 5, especially with the leaves.
