In reading today's assortment of threads in our beloved Miscellaneous board, I see some threads that perhaps we can resolve at one time.

Tig2 is raising donations for a charity.
There is good natured threads about Calenders of various members.

People are inquiring about TechRepublic swag.

Now, I'm not sure if this is even feasable...

But what if someone created some Items that are related to this motely crew, and sold them at CafePress, and the profit went to Tig2's charity?

Ok, it was just a thought...

get 'em all.
oh, the posts :8}
it doesn't matter, they all end up the same, anyway, World Peace.!. (don't we hope)

Go to :

http://www.cafepress.com/

(that is, if you aren't aware of that site yet).

Now, who to approach at TR ? I have no clue, but I bet smorty would know where to point.

If TR doesn't officially sign off on it, I imagine you could make a design or phrase that would be marketable for this group.

(edited to add:)

Like, for most of the guys here, you could make a coffee mug with the inscription:

"Be vewy,vewy qwiet. I'm hunting liberals on TechRepublic".

by dawgit

that was good. ROF on that (spilled some coffee too, dang!) just charge Max a $ for every shot he takes at me, that will fill Tigers fund quick.

auctioning off a photo of her DDs?

That would bring the money in and of course it is directly related to the cause. :)

by gadgetgirl

Excuuuuuuuuuuuuse me!

My DD's have exclusive rights to viewing by ONE PERSON ONLY (apart from me!)

So that's a no to that one..........

Now then, a bra auction would be a different matter altogether.... hey, actresses and models do it.....why can't the girls here do it???

So, Jules, any other ideas???!!!

:D

by jardinier

Yes, that is the truth.

So what's with all the drama? B-)

Gee ! I didn't even ask for a wet T-shirt version. :)

by tig2

First- I love the new avatar. Fabulous!

Second- if you are willing to toss a bra on the auction block, I cannot be far behind. Gentlemen- I promise it will be an older bra.

This should cause its own little storm...

P.S. to all this- Dawg should be the auctioneer. That ought to bring top dollar...

by rob mekel

Do you realy mean that the auctioning stuff ("Now then, a bra auction would be a different matter altogether") has to be checked by a blind-guy? :0 to make sure it is the right stuff from the right lady :0

[i]This really could make me jealous of blind-ppl. :) [/i]

You know, something like what's at the link below
http://tinyurl.com/eeron for sleepingdawg, as a remembrance.

Weird but appropriate tinyurl url.

I'm hoping Dawg is past his second cuppa afore he reads this. The Cafepress idea COULD work out but some of the donation would be "lost" to the cause.
Also, TiggerTwo, what about a plain ol' P.O. Box?

edit-add last 3 lines

I thought that was for you guys to do......

(ok, so women give you the inspiration....or in jd's case...debatable....!!! :p )

by rob mekel

are real good for getting ideas. :)
But if you mean that guy's do bring them up (DE), well I won't argue with you :D ;)

And tnx for the compliment GG :x

Don't you mean "[i] desperately [b]wanting to not[/b] see jd naked"?

Does this mean that you've seen him clothed, or at least partially so?

by jdclyde

[i]"Does this mean that you've seen him clothed"[/i]

my last avitar, so have you...... :p

by deepsand

Avatars are so unreliably displayed, frequently showing only as the red-X box, that I long ago fell in to the habit of not even seeing them.

by jdclyde

The whole garnish idea was NOT mine, and I was mortified to be treated in such a sexist fashion by the chicks of TR. ;\

Relax Mick, no nudies......

by mickster269

That's a relief, jd.

Although, I am not commenting on your lifestyle or choices, of course. There's nothing wrong with that.

by tig2

But you PROMISED!

Didn't you???

Now I am confused. *sniff*

Edited to correct *&%@# typo.

you'd miss finding out all the differing sizes and shapes that the bras' used to hold.....

not to mention the inherent feminine musk.....

and a little whiff of delicious perfume.....

Oh, well.

At least Dawg appreciates us.....

Be my guest and please us with your delighted appearance and do bring along any one you like to intensify the show :0 :) ;)

Never mind trying that one on, Rob, I know you're on wind up!

THE MEN ARE GOING TO BE THE NUDES.

by rob mekel

You with all the men on stage! :)

And ... taking two steps back ... will make you run backwards :0 into one of the men there with you. :0 :0 ;)

Do love you for your nice working mind. :x

BTW on the wind up part, Are you going to visit the Volvo Ocean Race? Mmm, as you are in New Castle may be a bit out off the route. I have an invitation, via a supplyer, to the event in Rotterdam. Can't accept that cause it's in conflict with integrity rules.

by tig2

Of course we want nude. There is so little in our sheltered lives to amuse us.

But Mickster desperately does NOT want to see JD nude (see tag).

How to resolve this???

Well, I DID offer a clover! :D

by gadgetgirl

a clover? Nooooooooo, no,no,no,no

Waaaaaaaaaay too big !!! (Bwaaaahaaaahaaa!)

(Grief, I can't type worth a damn when Muttleyfitting..... :p )

by tig2

I am going to get in sooo much trouble for this...

Do you know why women are traditionally considered to have no depth perception???

Years and years of being told that this: ------
is eight inches!

:D

by alangeek

First time I read that it looked like "Muffleytitting"...

Then I had to wonder what the heck that is and why it messes up your typing. Does it keep one hand occupied? I've never heard it called that before...

by mickster269

GG, I WAS married for 7 years (it felt like 10 years with the wind-chill factor, though). So I DO know of what you speak.

Actually, I have decided that women's lingerie is only exciting when being worn by a woman, and there is the distinct possibility that I might be able to remove it.

by mickster269

Hey!

How did this go from a suggestion of selling coffe mugs for charity to a discussion about bra sizes, naked people, and self gratification?????

Oh, wait. It's the TechRepublic/Misc. Board...

Nevermind.

by tig2

You knew where you posted, yes? You might have had an inkling where it would go.

To a small extent, you directed it- I invite your attention to your own tag...

:)

I will also say it HAS been fun!

by jdclyde

have you ever heard when Sam Kinison talks about women that make comments about the size of a mans member? ]:)

"AHHH! IT'S BIG! IT'S BIG! AHHHHHHHHHH!"
