Thanks, and let me know what I win..!!!

Simon, I'll catch up with you in the next few days.

If you're in Houston... or perhaps FAT and want tix, lemme know.

Simon, Michelle and I would like tickets and t-shirts also! We'll be stopping by to pay, and walk a few of the dogs. Also, I haven't received the list of items from you yet, of what we can bring. Should I just be patient since we aren't arriving til May 12? Thanks, Karen

TQ - can you spot me $50?

But of course!

Hopefully Simon will get a full list of the items up soon... let me know what your prefrences are... or is it a pot and a name gets drawn for each prize... a bit confused...

Hi Simon,

Simon, I will take 20 purple and 20 blue.

Ok LA, I split the purchase, 1/2 blue, 1/2 purple. Good luck!!!

Simon, I was told that you would post the names of the winners on the MB the following day. I didn't have LA's e-mail and phone number handy so you can just post our names.

Red tickets are for Rich's Skydive donation and will be $5 also. Look for tickets on sale this Sunday at BC's BBQ.

When is the next jump? anyone?

Haven't Charlene and Bruce done enough for SP?

Simon,

May I have $20 (US) of tickets for the Protech dive. You know when I am arriving and I'll give you the cash then with some beery interest (already making room for curry stuff in our teaboxes too).

Colette

P1, I don't know why you'd want to auction me... I am pretty useless on the island. Just want to DRINK, eat and be lazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzy!

Law, you got the check book ready???

You bet! - can't let my drinking, eating, lazing partner get bought up by some weirdo!

But your so cute TQ, who wouldn't by tickets. I think it is a great idea. Maybe for dinner or something.

Law, you are toooooooooooo funny!!

deac, sounds like a good idea but not for me.

Simon, put me down for $20.00 1/2 blue, 1/2 purple. Check's in the mail tomorrow. Zip code?
Might have to up the bid if dinner with the ladies becomes available.

TQ. just dinner NO more. Think of the money could be raised.

give it up Deac, the lady told ya no!

No means no, or are you back in the 70's yet?

Kic, rest yourself.

I wonder if I mail in some money today if it will get there before the raffle done on Sunday.

oh I'm plenty rested bub.

Kic, easy. reference 70's = reference song, "rest yourself". all is

Saga Humane Society
Sea Star St., San Pedro,
Belize,
Central America

No Zip code.

crayonlover, will cover you until check arrives.

Thanks cl, checks in the mail (no really)(honest)(cross my heart)

Any word on who won?

I won the weekend at Ramon's but have hear nothing about it. I emailed Simon and have heard nothing.
Please let me know what is going on. With what I donated I deseve an answer.

Why does what you donated have anything to do with it? I donated to help out as I'm sure others did, not necessarily with the expectation of winning anything. Sorry to vent but that just struck me as wrong.

Back off, Bob. A reasonable question not deservering your remarks.

I thought is was a rude approach as well. Perhaps you should rephrase your post to not sound so arrogant and stuck-up.

The island is on "Belize Time", chill!

All I want is to know the details so I can make flight reservations to come down to SP. I have no idea how many nights the certificate is good for and when I can use it. I did not donate the money to win anything, but since I did I want to know the details. It has been over a week and I have heard nothing. I just want some details. Is there anything wrong with that?

PMing Simon might have been the best alternative to avoid the horn tooters.

I did. No responce.

Hey,that's a nice rack for a guy.

I was just hopeing that maybe someone besides Simon might have some info.

Sorry guys it's been an very busy weekend and this is the first time I have been able to sit down at the computer since Thursday and take care of anything other than business.

Unfortunatley "The island is on "Belize Time"" is not true for all of us.

I will get the details ASAP, I'm off again to work.

From an Mexico listserv I subscribe to:

"Our fair city of Patzcuaro was recently honored by the visit of a
group of Houstonians who set up a permanent (we hope) free animal
neutering clinic.

A.I.P.A. (Assoc. Internacional Protectora de Animales ac)

Located just past the Libramiento (away from el centro) on Ibarra St

Sta de Ibarra # 153

This god-send of a non-profit group is neutering all pets free of
charge. They will gladly neuter street dogs and release them.
They (naturally?)are happy to receive small ( or large) donations.

In my opinion this is one of the best things to happen in Patzcuaro in
a long time. Maybe Texans are not all bad after all! :-)

Jim
PS: I moved here from El Paso,TX"

I wonder if GOB would permit this sort of thing in Belize, not only AC but throughout on a formal basis.
