Date: 5/14/12 4:59 PM We need to have an open Skype or something so we can all toast to D. with our wine, gorge on artisan cheeses and crackers, and stuff the ballot boxes for PP. I was just thinking how far $1 from each member would go towards a charity too....like SM's for Africa. Kiva is one great program we participate in. They have found making a loan of under $10 can help a woman start a business to support her family. -- Edited on 5/15/12 4:03 PM --

Date: 5/15/12 1:39 PM If everyone and their families would VOTE FOR POORPIGLING.. That could really add up.. I think we should start toasting now though.. you know how time flies..

You California, Michigan, Aussie wine growers, how about we lift our skirts, step into the tubs, and stomp some grapes to keep the supply flowing at PP's summer house--a dose of anti-oxidants to preserve PP's brain cells for all the vital decisions she will make in our futures....

gramma b Advanced USA Member since 7/25/08 Posts: 2271	Login to reply to this post In reply to poorpigling << Like this post Date: 5/15/12 6:08 PM With $$ how can we be sure you wouldn't head to the nearest fabric store to add to your stash? We could stuff the ballot boxes with parts of our stashes instead of dollars too....that way there is no federal investigation down the line and the Pink House can be re-decorated in style. -- Edited on 5/18/12 12:11 PM --

Date: 5/18/12 9:55 AM Since we do (a lot of us) pay to help the site up and running, maybe they could draw the name of one of us to be given an airplane ticket to a fabric meca and then be filmed trying to only buy enough fabric to fill our suitcase and not go over the wieght limit? Comedy and drama at the same time. ------ JanieV

Imagine a TSA agent telling one of us "Strip Search!", then having to go thru 37 layers of smuggled fabric wrapped around the body. Or how about our own cargo ship with containers full of fabric from Japan, India, Italy, etc??!! International fabric scraps raining from the heavens upon PP's victory, rather than confetti.... -- Edited on 5/18/12 12:15 PM --

When I hear of fabrics from Italy and pretty much anywhere but the US my ears are tweaked. I am only 5 hours from Dallas lets have the party at pigling's house.
