Dead Man's Chest 2011


Mission

Recommended Posts

At last I have something of merit to donate to the Dead Man's Chest Auction.

Muhaha.

Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?"

John: "I don't know."

Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

I hope to be back in form and frame of mind to donate this year. Last year nearly did my brain and soul in altogether. Once I get my teaching cert., I hope I can rest a little easier. I have several things in various stages of incomplete to finish. Just ran into a creative brick wall and couldn't touch anything without screwin' it up.

Would twisted wire (iron) forks and pewter tankards (used) be appropriate donations? I'm cleaning out my kit and have way to much stuff. I may find another home before then, but if not, I'd be happy to add to the cause.

Usually that's the kinds of items involved, a mix of new and used donated for auction to help support the cause, whatever cause that may be. ;)

Ok, good to know. Is anyone collecting these things in a central location yet, or do we wait until closer to the day?

If I donate something, I usually bring it with me. So that's my suggestion. ;)

While we do plan on holding the auction again this year, we don't have any specifics to offer as of yet. It's great to see this level of interest already. I'll try to get more details as soon as possible.

Your generosity and support is greatly appreciated.

I will donate towards the lock. Anybody else? chime in!

Swab's weapons are one of a kind, this could be the star of the auction, well... as long as they don't auction any Bosuns again...

I got my contribution for this year...

John: "I don't know."

Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."

Oh, that's bad. I even started the other post with nearly the same text. :rolleyes:

I guess I'll combine them. I should note that I got something when I posted that for the auction and then decided to keep it because I liked it and I knew it probably wouldn't fetch what I paid for it. This is more likely to get it's purchase price, or near to it.

Thank you Bo. Fayma still has the chest and we use it year to year. Although, last year it was a little hard prying it out of her hands. She loves it so much.

Your forged items are always such a bit hit and greatly appreciated.

If you're gonna give me a headache, please bring me an aspirin!
