Stay tuned for a message from our sponsor: As an advertising aside, all you guys go do the "Guess the Price" contest too! It don't cost nuthin'.... (And It's my turn and it's an 1894 P Morgan dollar.) Fun!

No need for the sponsor to speak. You guys are doing great on your own!

 You remember that guy on TV years ago who would do the "THAT gets a 'Z snap'" and he would even do around-the-world snaps for REALLY cool stuff.. lol! I thought of him when I read your post.. pictured you giving me a Z-snap.. sorry now I can't stop laughing.. Anyway! I won't be 'as available' this weekend - I'm supposed to go camping. With my laptop, of course (this is upgraded camping), but dunno if I'll be able to get in here and peek often. Buuuuuuuuuut before I shepherd gear, beer, children and dog into the mini camping vehicle, I will bid $29 on Lot 1 and hope wwhitman's got his typing fingers ready   I will definitely be back by Monday - if not Sunday afternoon. Depends on if it ever stops raining! And NO bashing the ABSENTEE contest-EE ( High Match - Proceeds to the CCF RULES Vol III, page 21, paragraph 2, section 3).

Update!
Moe and MINT_MARQ are in the lead at $28.00 each.
xshift has bid $29.00 on lot 1 and is looking for a match.
Some of the folks here are getting off on SNAP-ping each other. Personally, I think they're a little shell-shocked from cracking peanuts... SNAP! Regardless of all that - I appreciate all the participation.
xshift - Could you leave your $29.00 with a neighbor and give us the neighbor's phone number in case you have a close encounter of the BEAR kind on your weekend trip....?

Houston, we have a connection, repeat, we have a connection...yeeeeehaw, I don't see anyone matchin' ol' money-bags there... Quote: in case you have a close encounter of the BEAR kind on your weekend trip....? Naw... the bears are scared of the kids. But just in case.. I, xshift, being of sound mind and body (well.. ok that's all relative) do hereby create codicil #221 to my current Last Will and Testament: To CCF go proceeds of a winning auction or contest I have not yet sent funds for that were designated for that destination.. with proviso that weerdsteev does come to my final resting place (hopefully NOT inside said bear) and lay one flower of his choosing upon it. I said FLOWER not WEED and that includes poison ivy, me lad...
So ends said codicil, dated this 6th day of June, 2009 and virtually witnessed by 3 children, one dog, 10 people who have been partaking of adult beverages for most of the day, and a partridge in a pear tree.

Oh man! I take the kids to Storyland for the weekend and get dropped like a bad habit.
I'll just have to bide my time now...

Snowman...you can "partner" (that just sounds...wrong...) with Moe if you would like. We're not like Canada Geese in this contest. We don't partner for life. Moe is hanging out there with a $30.00 bid and MINT_MARQ has not agreed to partner with him at that level....yet. So feel free to "cut in" and match Moe.
