re: The USPOL Traveling Item

Ok, more rules:

1) No nude pictures. Of any kind.




I've got the email set up. If you're interested in participating, please send me your forum name and city, state/province, nation to USPOL@pramjockey.com. You can leave off real name and street addresses if it makes you more comfortable. I'll give it a bit of time, then start with a route plan.

Wallaroo, if you're willing to start, it may make the most sense. I appreciate your help!

re: The USPOL Traveling Item

Found my old stuffed toy tiger today after 15+ years in the basement...

If there are no objections (after posting pictures of it tommorow) then I guess we have ourselves an official U.S. Politiger!

re: The USPOL Traveling Item

I dont know if this thing is too ugly to send around to your royal highnesses, but at least its the only one of its kind in the world.

It only weigh around 3 pounds and can easily fit into a square foot box. Any objections?

re: The USPOL Traveling Item

Wallaroo, that's perfect.

Mrs. M, Sir Duke Galoot, and daddio, I've received your emails - my SMTP is having issues so please pardon the delayed responses.

Everyone else that's interested, please send me your name/address so that I can work out a route: USPOL@pramjockey.com

Thanks!

Speakeasy's avatar would be a great doll to have, but could be difficult to find.

I almost wonder if it would be a good idea to have both a book and a stuffed critter. Think that'd be too much to keep track of?

Trav, I may very well take you up on that. In this economy, an overseas shipping cost can be expensive!

It looks like we've got 7 willing participants. If we can get that to 10, I'll set up a custom email account, and maybe a web page (got the space) to get things going.

BTW, if you've got lurkers in the various private forums that may or may not exist, and they might be interested, please have them sign up. I think 10-15 participants would be ideal. That would give the critter a chance to hit a fair amount of ground.


get a flash drive instead of a book if you want to allow for a diary, its like 5 bucks an very light.

re: The USPOL Traveling Item

OK, I think that I've got enough participants to get this going. I'm going to come up with a route this weekend - work has been completely nuts and I've not had a moment to myself in several days.

If you have changed your mind and are interested, please email or PM me before Saturday. Thanks!
