edited January 2012 in The Porch
Ok, I read Steve's cry for help and it seems like he certainly could use it. I feel very lucky right now in life so I wanted to do my part to help. So here is what I am going to do, I have an excellent condition 1991 Pearl Jam Fan Club vinyl. If you make a $5 donation to
iplaydrumsalot@hotmail.com
via a gift to Paypal you get one entry into winning this vinyl. If you donate $10 as a gift to him I will give you 3 entries. All you need to do is donate and then send me a copy to my e-mail so I can tally your e-mail and the appropriate number of entries. I DO NOT want you to send me anything, please send directly to him. I will cover the mailing charges to anywhere in the world. I thought about just selling this and giving him the money; however,I think that this gives the ability to have the most money generated over what the vinyl is "worth." Please forward all receipts and wrinte your board name in the e-mail as well...NOT MONEY...to
cbalow@gmail.com

Thank you for reading and I hope this is successful.

I will post the winner here and I truly hope this helps out Steve in his time of need.

Thank you,

Chris

    How about December 20th for a cutoff point? I though about that for the original e-mail but I didn't want to limit it. If you have other suggestions I am open to it. Oh and my dog is not allowed anywhere near my vinyl, I don't smoke, I don't run a meth lab in my basement, and I know how to pack and ship vinyl. =)

    Great initiative on your behalf. I was just going to check up on what had happend in the 'case' and saw your post, good going! Sadly I can't afford to donate more money, just hoping he (Steve) hangs in there.
    Have fun, walk hard and stay alive.

    What the hell?!?!

    I... this is amazing guys. I never thought so much could come from me just being honest and asking for some help, with plenty to offer in return.

    I did start to get some donations and had no idea where they were coming from. Then i came across this, no one even told me it was going on!

    This help couldnt come at a better time. I am almost speechless as to how to reply and what to say... i feel thank you is not enough.

    Is there anything i need to do here? Do i need to make a list of people making donations or are you on top of that?

    Actually, i will pm you.
    Steve

    Great stuff here. Consider it done.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.
