21 Jun 10 - 08:54 AM (#2931915) Subject: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL 100% to Michael Harrison. On the assumption that no one wants the remains of Larry the Lobster or the hideous non-matching 2' peacock made of bamboo and glitter, I am creating a reverse auction. You pay NOT to get the prize. I have most of your addresses and those I don't I can get. Micca? Jacqui? Amos? Spaw? FSGWers? Who doesn't want them the most? Get your donations in fast. Mark zero in the bid blank and let me know in the posting section how much you are paying NOT to get some Maine hideobilia. Or else... |
21 Jun 10 - 09:15 AM (#2931924) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: Charley Noble Wow! This could really be a competitive auction. Great idea! Cheerily, Charley Noble |

22 Jun 10 - 01:06 PM (#2932686) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: ranger1 It's for Michael Harrison. Check the auction page for more details. |
22 Jun 10 - 01:20 PM (#2932694) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL 100% to Michael Harrison. |
22 Jun 10 - 01:20 PM (#2932698) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL And, of course, I get to empty my house. |
22 Jun 10 - 02:46 PM (#2932755) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: Skivee Can I pay by check if I loose? |
22 Jun 10 - 02:53 PM (#2932757) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: Janie pm me re where to send the blackmail money and to whom the check should be made. |
22 Jun 10 - 03:25 PM (#2932774) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL Two options: Visit the website and donate via Paypal. If you do not have Paypal, mail check to me and I will donate via Paypal. I am at work but will provide the link later. Thank you for insulting my lack of taste. Mary |
22 Jun 10 - 04:13 PM (#2932811) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL $35 dollars extorted so far. Who else is in? |
22 Jun 10 - 04:25 PM (#2932816) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: GUEST,kendall $35.00 for the whole load? |
22 Jun 10 - 04:45 PM (#2932836) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL No! The idea is to put in a donation and avoid getting a package in the mail. By the way, Kendall, I don't see a donation from you. I have a variety of singing/dancing/noisy crap some with water fountains. Be careful... Go to the auction. |
22 Jun 10 - 07:27 PM (#2932927) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: GUEST,kendall That's Jacqui's department. I'm in charge of filling the dust bins. |
22 Jun 10 - 08:01 PM (#2932941) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL Just found a singing dancing John McCain in a suit for $5. Who will bribe me NOT to buy it. LOL This is fun. Tiny nuns to all participants. |
23 Jun 10 - 08:24 AM (#2933195) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL refresh |
23 Jun 10 - 08:27 AM (#2933196) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL Apparently there is some confusion in the auction. You are bidding NOT to receive a piece of hideobilia. Bid any amount in the body of your post. Delete the bid amount in the title. Even a $1 will save you. Kendall and Tami - you are not safe but you never were. Pictures to follow. |
23 Jun 10 - 12:07 PM (#2933299) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: ranger1 Ah, yes, but we know where you live and one of us has access to a key... |
23 Jun 10 - 01:52 PM (#2933352) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: Amos How are you going to handle a tie in non-responsiveness amongst several hundred non-participants? Enquiring minds want to know... THis is like the WWVA pitch that offered a dozen baby chicks for those who called in within a week; if within two weeks, two dozen baby chicks; if within a month, thirty baby chicks. And if you never called in at all they threatened to send you fifty baby chicks AND a half-dozen placemats in genuine vinyl, "with an autographed picture of Jesus Christ and the Twelve Disciples on it".

23 Jun 10 - 02:18 PM (#2933365) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL Easy. I have a list of membvers. They all go in a hat - those who haven't participated. I pick one or two and ship. Those in Californis who call attention to themselves move to the top of the list. heh heh |
24 Jun 10 - 08:29 AM (#2933890) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL 8 days left. Ignore at your peril, Spaw. |
24 Jun 10 - 10:03 AM (#2933944) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: Janie Sins, could you post a link to the website? I can't seem to find it now. |
24 Jun 10 - 10:30 AM (#2933960) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL Here you go: http://michaelwilliamharrison.com/ |
24 Jun 10 - 01:21 PM (#2934058) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL $40 and climbing. Found a whole box of dusty singing dancing running battery operated Christmas crap. There is also the life sized head of a witch in a globe which cackles (the witch not the globe) motion operated. |
25 Jun 10 - 12:37 PM (#2934672) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL Stalled at $40. Do I have to add the inflatable moose? I would really hate to part with him... |
25 Jun 10 - 04:13 PM (#2934798) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: ranger1 Yes, especially since the inflatable lobster bit the big one. |
25 Jun 10 - 04:39 PM (#2934811) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: Amos You could really stir up the action if you promised to include the genuine Inflatable Pony ridden by Big Mick himself at the YippeeKy-ayyyy Extravaganza Getaway All Out Little Dogies Blowout Parade... |
25 Jun 10 - 09:55 PM (#2934936) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: Padre I'm in - the thought of having to explain to my parish how I ended up with an inflatable lobster or an inflatable (as opposed to flatulent?) moose gave great emphasis to my giving. Padre |
26 Jun 10 - 12:12 AM (#2934969) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL Thank you, Padre. But I also have an endless supply of tiny nuns and glow in the dark religious paraphernalia. |
26 Jun 10 - 11:57 PM (#2935387) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: Tinker Okay, Okay Monday's my day off and I'll figure out how to donate.... I really don't need to add a "friend" to the Micheal Jackson Angel that sits upon my desk.... |
27 Jun 10 - 12:16 AM (#2935392) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: Janie Amos, did you really have to remind us? One the other hand, how often is one able to say "My Most Embarrassing Moment" is the same "Most Embarrassing Moment as about 20 other people. Inquiring minds want to know; Is it true there was a petition circulated within FSGW after that particular Getaway to bar Mudcatters from future Getaways;^) |
27 Jun 10 - 08:58 PM (#2935757) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL And look who is tempting fate: Gee, I think it might be kinda nice to have that limp, flaccid lobster.... Joe Offer A Doubting Thomas. LOL SO Larry must be yours, Bro Joe Unless I see a donation in your future?????? |

30 Jun 10 - 09:16 AM (#2937239) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL Two days to go and so far Joe offer owns the deflated lobster. |
01 Jul 10 - 07:58 AM (#2937823) Subject: RE: Reverse Auction of Maine Hideobilia From: SINSULL Counting down to zero. $50 so far in bids and pledges. To those of you who chose to tempt fate: Be afraid. Be very afraid. |
