Cool! I confess to having NO CLUE when it comes to e-bay (which is probably just as well ) not to mention myspace.

But now you've posted the dates here I can just keep an eye out. Thanks.

Fatherhood is a blast man, It is so hard to ever be down on yourself when there is a little angle looking back at you. I am just waiting for Famke to stop drooling so I can put her stick man shirt on her.

thanks very much for your support elgallo10

and everyone else as well. I hope you all realise how much every little thing that you do to help ( including bumps lol) means to a little old jammer from newy.
and how much it can help
My big brother for instance thought nothing of sending a couple of emails around to his mates he works with. I was told last week one of them was sent on to a Union rep who sent it on, it went out to 50,000 people.
Imagine that, just imagine how far the word is spreading. Not many would want this board, but they could be like jeanie here who donated. maybe they would learn about this condition.
maybe somebody will find out they they and their partner carry the gene and avoid passing it onto their child through IVF because of what Im doing. if I prevent just one child form getting Cystic fibrosis i would have done a fantastic thing, I knew nothing of CF, Only the song 65 roses by The Wolverines.
Because of a simple thing people are learning of lizzies condition.
Two heroes of mine did a small thing in their life for me. To me this is one of the biggest things Ive ever done.
When I sat at the newy preshow party at the start of this journey I felt moved ( very moved) at how much people will give in effort, spirit or cash. its just grown and grown since then.
Pearl Jam should be proud, very proud of those who call themselves fans ( jammers- the jamily)

ONCE DEVIDED

its the 4th today just 3 days to go before take off
Im getting nervous

pjfan31

how did u go with surise and today? any luck?

ONCE DEVIDED

nah not a bite at all
tried
the daily telgraph ( sydney paper)
Newcastle Herald
2UE ( ray hadley) radio
abc newcastle Radio
Today channel 9
sunrise channel 7
even asked here on the board for sticky
but got nothing
dissapointed but I can only ask.
Everyone has other priorities, I understand that.
tracks magazine and surfing life magazine did what they could- put me in their online mags as I was too late for the printed versions

Heres hoping though that Ive reached the right persons who will go big on the auction
but whatever I raise I will be proud of what Ive done. In a life where thats been rare Its a good thing- a great thing.
and the support that people like you guys and gals out there makes me feel really happy, thrilled and exited
cheers to all of you

If you finished it midday Oz east time that will work out about 9pm US east coast time.

ONCE DEVIDED

Hmm so that would mean I have to take time off to start it this friday at midday (is that right anybody)

ONCE DEVIDED
