  • I'll post the total and all pertinent information when I make the deposit. Suffice it to say for now that I will definitely have to take off both shoes and then some to add it all up.

    I sucked at math.

    • I see that as a good thing. That means lots of it where it's needed.

      The olive branch is considered a symbol of peace, and good will. Last time I checked, it's still a switch.

            I'm not worried one bit, I know where your heart is to help a brother out. I'm just hoping that maybe that Canadian Swede Sweetie of yours will help you confirm the count on your fingers and toes. And I agree that a pic of the pile would be neat to see....just not too high detail so personal info can be seen.

              I'll double count. The Swede used to be a bank manager so she can't be trusted. You know the one for you, one for me counting method.

              I actually tried to teach her that back in the day, she never did get it.

              As it is the bank will probably try to cheat me when I make the deposit and say my ciphering at right. I'll have to take off my shoes right there in the gosh darn lobby and prove my work. Awkward.

              I'm not bad at the plussing stuff it's the take aways that gives me the head pain. Long as I'm doing the plus thing ( a good thing ) I'm ok.
              Don't even talk about that dividing stuff, thats for rocket scientist and brain surgeons.

                Awkward, yes - for the tellers!! Make sure you take care of that toe jam the night before, please, for all of our sakes.

                • Maybe I can trick her into counting on my toes and give me the opportunity to look down her shirt.

                  Ok, OK, that's it. Lines crossed. I'm a bad bad person.

                  • I'd make that offer, but well you know, not cool. Bring one of those new fangled calculators things with you, I hear they make short work of the math part.

                    • Well boys and girls and you too Deitrich. Today is end of the month, end of our O'Dell collection. My wife advises I got one more check in the mail today and I think there's one more enroute.

                      I'll leave this thread open until next week to post final results, tally's rebuttles etc.

                      Anything that I've missed or shows up I will of course forward to O'Dell.

                      For a bunch of boy and girls that don't really even know each other we really came through for a fellow member and cyber friend.

                      I'd once again like to give credit where credit is due and advise that this was another members idea, I do so hate taking credit for others ideas. That dang Gore didnt' invent the internet!! I did.

                      Anyhow I want to thank our to remain nameless member and freind for thinking this up and instigating this plan. It's a good thing you thought up here and my hats off to ya.

                      Final report early next week.

                      • Ok folks, the final tally for our efforts for the last month in O'Dells behalf.

                        I got me one of them fancy gadget calculators, got more buttons than carter has liver pills. I have no clue what most of em do and I got different answers numerous times. So I just kept trying till I got the same answer 4 or 5 times. Kind of like tallying the votes for our governor the last couple times, and the wrong one won both times.

                        Anyhow we had 26 donations with a grand total of $1,040.00.

                        So a check will be headed for Georgia in a few days. In addition thanks to Johnh and his connections with important people at Kahr, a shiney new PM9 as chosen by O'Dell is enroute to a dealer near Mr. O'Dell and should be there in a week or two.
                        They supplied us with a VIP special good deal so our donation bucks went a little bit further thanks to John's efforts. They've asked not to disclose the VIP Special good price so my lips are sealed. I know but I'll have to kill myself if I tell and I had to know since it's on my credit card for a little bit. I will say it was a good deal.

                        I had thought about listing all the donors without amounts but a few of them I only know their real name and not screen name. You know who you are and it's a good thing we've accomplished here.

                        I'll keep the list and even the envelopes which I noted amounts and such on so any questions for the next couple months I'll still have my records.

                        My hats off to all of you. The member who once again conceived this idea has still not agreed to fess up to his identity so I still got my mouth duct taped. Thanks to him as well for kicking it all off.

                          Friends helping friends when the chips are down.

                          Hats off to everyone that helped make this happen.

                            The spark is definitely gone today. I'm staying away from the tops of stairs, banks, ditches etc.

                            I spend over an hour stuck in the mud in the back yard this afternoon, finally got myself extricated thru great effort on my part.

                            I apparently gave a wrong answer when I refused to add on to the front deck due to the multitude of other projects needing our funds and attention.
                            It'll be most quiet for a week or two. Woman phooey. Excepting TD2k and Melissa of course.

                            I'll be in my room if anyone needs me. Making sawdust.

                              That's great news Bawanna. A tidy sum was collected and O'Dell will get a new Kahr. Nothing more comforting than a well-armed Irishman. Thanks to you Bawanna for all your hard work in making this happen.

                              • Congrats

                                Congrats to you, O'Dell - I'm thankful for this bit of good news after the two incidences and I'm thankful that so many people stepped up. Enjoy your PM9, I'm looking forward to hearing how yours runs and hope it's as good as mine has been. And Bawanna, I just want to say thanks to you and to johnh (and everyone) for all you did to help a brother out. You didn't have to, and yet you did - so thank you for that! It's a rarity to find a place like this - I'm just glad I did.
