Can we please do name tags this year?
I know it is kinda corny, but since i suffer from C.R.S, it would be a lot easier and nicer to be able to talk to people and know who they are, both real and screen names........especially if I have too much blood in the alcohol stream.......
I am determined to defend my title against the treadmill..............

Always a good time. IMO far better than any show or club meeting I have ever attended.

I agree 100% on the name tag thing. Good for when you meet new people , peoples wives etc but also good for guys you may hove known well but haven't seen in a few year. Over time people get gray hair or beer guts , etc.

Good to be able to have that little clue from the name tag.

Last year I made the Braised beef. I swear I made a ton and yet it all went almost immediately. I was surprised to be honest as it needed to be brought in using two big foil pans.

This year I may do beef again but maybe I'll feel ambitious and do something different. One of my favorites is Hot Turkey delight. Thats Roasted Turkey cut into chunks then simmered in its natural gravey. So moist and tasty. great for sandwiches or over rice or potatoes. I'll also admit that what's available at a reasonable price also has a hand in what I select. If Turkey is $3.29 a pound that week , Maybe I don't get it.

I'll get a food thread going in another couple of weeks. Messy Matty will be there with Mikey, paliaso and I this year, as well.

Anybody think of getting a block of rooms?

If anyone needs a designated driver in the Pembroke/ South Shore area let me know. I will provide transportation safely to and from the event.

I like the pick your prize way we have been doing it. That way luck decides who gets to pick first and get the better prize second third etc. It also creates the possibility that what I think is the best available prize is not what someone else may think. I go up and grab what I want or need most , that may still leave what someone else wanted or needed most on the table. I think the way we do it now is the best way for the people buying tickets.

Agreed.
I think that picking what you want is what sets this apart from every other raffle and truly makes this the best raffle ever anywhere----Even when it gets down to the end and I win that spool of 12 Lb Shakespere mono----Its better than like other raffles where you always end up winning something you have 12 of that you already don't use at all..........
Keep it the way it is.....who cares if it takes forever.......its not like they stop selling beer early at the 7th inning stretch or something..........

Of course you agree. You won 74 prizes last year!!!!

JackK · 02-24-2011, 01:33 PM

Sorry if I missed it- But what time do all the shenanigans start?

piemma · 02-24-2011, 02:54 PM

Pretty sure 7:00 PM

redcrbbr · 02-25-2011, 10:46 AM

John, I'm going to need to take a few minutes to award some plugs won in the fantasy football league.

BigFish · 02-26-2011, 05:52 PM

Lookin' around...what time does this party kick off???

BigFish · 02-26-2011, 05:58 PM

BigFish and Fishchick are comin'!

nightfighter · 03-01-2011, 05:37 PM

Not going to be able to make it this year... Victim of tight tight budget, sizable truck repair, and very little work recently... Have fun!

Rob Rockcrawler · 03-01-2011, 08:03 PM

So what kind of stuff should we be bringing for the raffle? I assume plugs and such are the norm right?

RickBomba · 03-02-2011, 06:42 AM

You better hope you been training...Matty quit smoking to go up against you on the mill!
