Slipknot aka Bruce is one of the nicest guys on this site without a doubt! We all love him!!!:love: He has also been a hard working moderator on S-B for....well.....forever!! He is in need of a new canal bike and Bruce has the same "size problems" that I have!!! He is friggin huge!!! Heck! His hands need sidecars for cryin' out loud!!:rotf2: I would like to propose we take up a collection from us folks here at S-B and buy Slipknot a Canal Cruiser suitable to his stature and to thank him for his service here, his friendship and his generosity over the years! I would like to kick in the first $20 and I will personally outfit Slip's new bike with what we call the "Cow Board"! (Thats the skateboard deck mounted on the rear baskets for carrying his quarry!!) So what say you fellow S-B members??? Post your donation here and get in touch with me via pm's and I will collect your donations and we will let Bruce pick out a bike and we can present it to him at the canal one morning with many in attendance!!:uhuh: Lets do this!!!

Do not even think of deleting this thread Bruce.....this is gonna happen!!!:jump1:

I'll match your $20 and I'll add a hidden GPS locator so we can track where he goes ;)

We should have a How-To thread on how to outfit a Canal cruiser.

I'll go for $20. Hell after the $20K for a kitchen from Slip, this is nothing......can't help on any tips/extras I don't do the canal!

I like Slip quite a bit. I'll Pay Pal somebody $5 - writing a check is too much work.

If you already have your checking account linked there will be no charge. If (like me) you don't have the checking account linked you will have a minimal charge of 44 cents per $10 gifted.

objects can inherit special attributes

RE-INCARNATION is one of the Deceiver's biggest lies!!

Catching up on some threads after settling in from vacation. I would happily donate $20 to the cause. Slip has been very helpful to me through the years. Larry...can you PM an address, I'll throw a check in the mail.
