    What if I were to donate some old newspapers and some plaster of paris? I remember making one of those "volcano" science projects with this stuff. Surely you could make a decent statue yourself.

    C'mon, man, this is SERIOUS.

    We're not talking some Jr. High science fair project. I'm talking about some real heavy duty cement. I'm giving Sally Struthers an open ticket at the Western Sizzler All You Can Eat buffet for some half assed project.

    The thought is good though.

    Hey, man, I appreciate it though. I love it when my Polk bretheren rally around a worthy cause.

    that have just been sitting in the medicine cabinet gathering dust that I'd like to offer.

    The only problem is the labels are missing from several tubes, and the ink has faded on the intact labels so I can't guarantee which **** or digit any particular ointment is designed for or meant to be applied to.

    So the user will have to experiment on their own, but I can guarantee these are tubes of various ointments that are very effective for whatever they were meant for.

    El Bumpo!

    I believe that Tejas may be short of a statue. I think we can get an NOS statue for 1750 (asking price).

    I'll pitch in 42 pennies to open.

    NOS but missing the statue stand and box. You might be wondering how it can be NOS if the box is missing, shouldn't NOS be inside a sealed box? The answer is because I called it NOS, problem solved.

    LMAO....now THATS the kind of fun we used to have....and miss.

    42 pennies eh....I'd like to match that donation but I'm 41 pennies short. Do have some fresh toe jam to use as glue to hold that statue together though. Is there going to be a caption on this statue ? A date even ? Let me guess.....1750 ?

    Ok, guys, lots of pigeons in TX that need a place to poo.....

    Let's get serious. I'm about to put some dented cans of Spaghetti-o's on the FM.

    17.50 a can. Proceeds go to a good cause...

    Let's get this done!

    Holy Shack!

    Have not seen that name in a long time.
