    Since I'm running a high fever and the only prescription is more cowbell, I will leave all you negative nancies with a happy Sparky Mr. Rogers song, 'Tomorrow tomorrow we'll start the day tomorrow with a Smile for you.' Thanks for the well wishes EV.

    Mama and Mrs Smiley put me back in good spirits- here it is: generously and kindly donated by Mr Tom Tomorrow:

    2 Chicago II Posters signed by cartoonist/artist and "designer of "Backspacer" artwork and album cover: Tom Tomorrow (BUT NOT NUMBERED)

    The online pictures dont do this poster justice as I have them now in front of me and they are very pleasing to the eye and more beautiful than I imagined I thought they would be as I only saw them on the internet before now. How neat and interesting it is to have a signed piece from the artist that is a part of the "Backspacer" story and from a chapter in the Pearl Jam story in general.

    For those who don't have luck getting one of his signed and numbered posters during his sale this Wednesday, we will have 1 NOT numbered but signed poster for 10/30 and 1 NOT numbered but signed poster for 10/31. I just want to be clear on these auction items that they are signed but NOT numbered.

    Thank you Tom T for your generous donation. I am honored you chose to donate to these wonderful charities. Also thanks Dave for your efforts and mrs smiley for your selfless giving. Upcoming announcement soon for a way to savor the pleasant memories and remember these great shows. Just as soon as my fever gets below 101 and Arnold Ziffel is my favorite pig again, LOL.

    you Rock P&E!! Thank you for thinking of the troops by gathering collections of US Troop supplies. This will make the moms and dads of the Yellow Ribbon Club very happy as some of them will be joining us throughout the events.
    Please thank your friend for the donation to the Gift of Life as well...

    whew! I was a bit hesitant not knowing if these items would be popular among a Pearl Jam fanbase even with PJ's ties to the Ramones. From what I was told, Ramones fans freak out for this stuff. Most items I have are raffle prizes but one is up for auction (it sells for over $150). Maybe you can use some Jedi Mind Tricks on me to make a specific raffle item an auction item for a day you are there....or if you dont win anything via raffle, maybe you can trade with the winner...good luck and see you there!

    another cool item just came in:

    Obtained in person at training camp and generously donated by "Paul D":

    Youth size Philadelphia Eagles Donovan McNabb replica jersey autographed by #5 himself Donovan McNabb as well as a #82 who is no longer with the team. I haven't picked which of the 4 parties I will do this with, but this item will go to the person who buys the most raffle tickets in 1 entire purchase between 3 and 5 PM. Incentive for buying raffle tix just got a little better if you are an Eagles fan! This would make a great gift if you got a kid who loves #5

    Hey Maaash,

    I mailed a check to the Gift of Life Family House. I was tempted to put a note in the envelope saying something like...
    I am obsessed with Eddie from PJ
